Thread Name: BS: Budweiser
Subject: RE: BS: Budweiser
Well, I quote that wise sage from Arlen, Texas, Hank Hill-I have never poured out a beer.

Yes, Bill, I am certainly aware that overseas interests are buying lots of American companies and real estate. Again, I say, what are your thoughts on this, because this is Budweiser-in American minds, one of the first names you would mention when you think of ANY product in America, right up there with Coke, Ford, and Apple. First indications are that they are not going to lay people off, move production, etc, but I think it would be naive to think the new owners arent' going to make some changes. I'm just wondering in these days of marginilization, how people feel about such a major brand name being owned now by a European concern.
