InBev takeover of Anheuser-Busch a possibility

Belgian mega-brewery InBev is attempting a $46 billion takeover of Anheuser-Busch brewery in St. Louis, Missouri, whose most famous products are Bud and Bud Light. Anheuser-Busch rejected the offer in late June, announcing their intentions to keep their world HQ in St. Louis. However, according to this Forbes article, InBev is not done… it’s going to attempt a hostile takeover, in which it will try to replace Anheuser’s board of directors with a slate of its own.

InBev is the second-largest brewery company in the world and brews Stella Artois, Beck’s, Skol, Brahma, and Leffe.
