Location: A Blue State Rep Power: 12 ![]() ![]() | SAD SAD DAY (beer) InBev makes its play for Bud After months of speculation and rumors, it's official. Anheuser-Busch Cos. is the target of the biggest takeover bid in the global beer industry's history. InBev of Belgium has launched an unsolicited bid to take over St. Louis-based Anheuser-Busch Cos., the brewer of Budweiser and the country's biggest beer maker. The $46.3 billion bid — amounting to $65 per share, in cash — would transform the industry, creating a global brewing behemoth selling about one-fourth of the world's beer. It also would end Anheuser-Busch's 156-year run as an independent company. The combined company would become 60 percent bigger than the next largest brewer, SABMiller of London, and 2½ times as big as Dutch brewer Heineken. COORS here I come. | ||||||||

Location: 254.45 miles from Tiverton, Devon (ENGLAND) Rep Power: 9 ![]() | I went on the beer masters tour while in one of the theme parks in Fl. (I think it was Sea world!) While we were on the tour they gave us beer to sample, most were OK but one, just to demonstrate, they'd 'cooked' just to prove that heat harms your beer, and it was disgusting. There were only 4 of us on the tour that time and there were 6 bottles to be drunk by the 4 of us so we had a good tour although the other guy on the tour couldn't tell that there was anthing wrong with the 'cooked' beer! __________________ "Artificial Intelligence usually beats natural stupidity." | ||||||||

Location: @home Rep Power: 8 ![]() | As I sit here drinking my cup of hot tea, I can say when I travel to Europe, I have never been served a warm beer. Then again, I have never been to England / Scotland and when in Ireland, never got a chance to sample the local brew. | ||||||||

In my opinion alcohol should not be served warm under any circumstances (except a hot toddie) as you're chancing 'boiling off' the alcohol! __________________ "Artificial Intelligence usually beats natural stupidity." | ||||||||
