Hey, nobody knows. I just gave my take on the subject, and that was after I asked a 30 year verteran of the business. No, not Kenny. Anybody can borrow money when the company they are acquiring has a huge cash flow position with a sustained track record. 150 years in business qualifies on both counts.

One major thing discussed here was the fact the big boys will have their own distribution network, and that INBev would be losing any money they were making on distribution.

Drinks has no beer distribution network, and our thoughts were that perhaps them using InBev's, allowing InBev to still make some money off Labatt USA. This would allow Drinks' bid to perhaps not be the highest, but include unique avenues to continue making money after the sale.
