Certainly seems to be some confusion on how all this is going to play out. According to this USA Today article, it clearly says that InBev is required to divest all the assets under InBev USA which houses both Labatt and Rolling Rock brands, and ALL the brands distributed by Labatt USA. This would also include the corporate offices in Buffalo and InBev USA's headquarters in NYC.

If this is the case, it certainly opens up the possibility of several winning bidders as InBev can divest the brands as they see fit.
