Brock,

Certainly didn't mean to offend you or your family. I just don't think signing a petition is going to do anything at the level we're discussing. $$$ rules all. Just the thought of AB even considering doing this is beyond comprehension.

Believe me, it makes me sick to think that AB would even think of selling out to anyone, let alone a foreign company. AB should be an American institution. Apparently nothing is sacred.

AB and the rest of the "big boy" breweries did, however, lead to the demise of hundreds of breweries in the decades that followed WWII with their aggressive marketing. Sadly, Rolling Rock was one of the last to bite the bullet. If I'm not mistaken (and I could be), AB bought them out just recently.

Good luck with everything.

And if you like beer history (in Rhode Island anyway), check out www.rhodeislandbreweryhistory.com
My dad and I have been in love with beer for a long time.
