Okay I am tired of hearing and reading....

"Let's Boycott AB / InBev! "

LETS FORCE MASSIVE LAYOFFS OF SAINT LOUIS (AMERICANS) WORKFORCE.  Bet you did not think about that did ya???   Let the over paid Execs go.  Let all of the board members go.  They did not do their job.  They let profits slip.  They allowed for this whole circus to take place.  But do not forget about all of those ladies and men who brew, bottle and transport the products.  Those people are Americans.  Those people are St. Louisians!!  Who cares about who strokes the checks.  If you think you are supporting Americans buy switching to Miller or Coors, PBR or many of the other lables, your wrong.  They are all owned by foreigners.  Lets support those people here.  If we dont, then InBev will come in and have a reason for massive layoffs and production modifications.

I will continue to drink my Michelob Light and 180 energy drink.  What will you do???

Drink your usual until they lie about doing things the same as the Busch family, then if they feel the crunch they'll know why.

I will try to drink something other than the AB/!nBev Select beer but who knows what comes close to taste? The reason why AB products were widely consumed here isn't necessarily because of the St. Louis roots rather the TASTE!

So, please send out the list of beers close to that of Bud Select (or Bud Light) and are American made - I'll switch.

The Federal Government still needs to approve this move and if my memory is correct didn't they thwart AB's purchase attempt of Coors?

Do your research. The only major player in the beer market that is truely American is Samuel Adams. It is still Boston - Made.

I hate Boston though so maybe I'll stick with my !nBev Select as speedo mentioned. Someone (microbrew) needs to create a near bud select taste and you've got my business.

I drink both foreign and domestic beers already. I do like Schlafly's pale ale more than Bud select. But nothing can beat an ice cold Michelob in my taste buds opinion. Just had one after cutting the lawn and man did it taste good!
I most likely will not alter my pattern of beer consumption at all. I just hope they do not mess with the recipe.
It is what it is. Companies get swallowed up all the time.

I have no horse in this race......been drinking Miller Lite or Miller High Life for years and continued to do so after they were bought out and don't see that changing!
