Brew your own...
Working on it!
I just look at macro beer as being a completely different product than, um, good beer. It's like OJ vs Coke IMHO.

Personally I don't understand all this hate towards Inbev and Walmart, and I think someone mentioned the oil companies too.
Everyone supports small business, but hates big business. It's like the American dream has a cap on it, and once you exceed that cap everyone starts hating you.
What small business would be able to do that?
The key word there is able. Anyone who is able to get around a stupid law is going to. Wouldn't you? By using the word able instead of would you're suggesting anyone in there position would do the same.
Sounds like the problem here is the government not the business. The government passes a stupid law, and then passes an exemption to the law for a business that the government favors.

Government is the cause and means of passing dumb laws. When people try to sell the idea of a "partnership" between business and government (cough LBJ) they really mean favors for this business or that. Whatever a business does, dumb government is the link in the chain that's broken.
Nope, government is part of the problem, but not the cause. The lobbyists that speak for InBev/AB and Miller-Coors don't have the best interests of the craft breweries in mind. Those lobbyists are effective because of the large sums of money that InBev/AB and Miller-Coors can throw around, which in turn greases the pockets of many politicians. Those companies keep the stupid laws around because they can exploit loop holes. Craft and microbreweries are UNABLE to do that, InBev/AB and Miller-Coors know this, take advantage of this, and use it to keep the small breweries down.
