A blog about beer and/or advertising.

Let's call it "beervertising" for short.

That's not really all that short, but it's better than beer and/or advertising.

Bad News

I just learned that the following brewers are partly or fully owned by Anheuser Busch-InBev:

Goose Island (just sold to AB-InBev)
Widmer Brothers
Redhook
Redbridge

As such, they have been added to my brand boycott list.

Which sucks because I love three of those four breweries (never had Redbridge).

Might have to stop on my way home and get some Goose Island before the deal is done.

A Quick Thought

Advertising is a business so caught up in getting things done, it often forgets what it is its supposed to be doing.
