    Not overly concerned by what happens to the Anheiser Busch products, but big business are in danger of eating themselves up here! Brewing is turning into the car trade with all the recent buy outs and mergers!
    The budgets involved mean there will be no identity with many of these beers and they will just become even more bland etc.

    Roll on the independents!!

    It has always been this way. But yes, soon there will be very few big operators left. The SABMiller/Coors merger is rumoured to be only a matter of time.

    And remember that they need you drinking their beers in order to survive. Every pint of Guinness and Heineken purchased supports big, consolidating, industrial drinks companies.
