I don't think the average consumer knows that the "Big Three" (AB, Miller, Coors) are all foreign owned/multinational corporations and not American owned breweries.Red Roosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870875681742885979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7811331291821841630.post-55709227369285288752010-02-12T18:59:09.750-08:002010-02-12T18:59:09.750-08:00I lost all respect for AB when they sold out.
