Default Another reason to celebrate April

Now here is a very well articulated, albeit biased toward micros, article against the macros. I understand that everyone should have the right to drink what they want, but not when it comes at the cost of pushing the little guy out of the way in order to make more money on top of the billions made each year already. I won't get on too much of a high horse, and rant too much but the tactics that the big companies take sometimes can really piss a guy off.

Also that is just a good website in general.

Cheers to good beer!

I am wondering:

"Finally, the following is an incomplete list of brands owned by InBev, from which A-B acquired the U.S. distribution rights as of February 1, 2007:

• Bass
• Beck’s
• Boddington’s
• Bohemia
• Hoegaarden
• Franziskaner
• Labatt
• Leffe
• Lowenbrau
• Spaten
• Stella Artois"

Now I wonder, if a distributor is a master for Spaten products and another is the master for AB products, will the owner of the master of AB get the rights to distribute the Spaten products or is this unrelated?
