Pabst is soon to be #1 American-owned beer maker

Yep, that’s right. With the recent sale of Anheuser-Busch to Belgium brewer InBev, Pabst will become the largest American-owned brewery. What are the god-fearing, gun-toting patriots going to do now that their “All American Lager” is no longer American?
Here’s Stephen Colbert’s reaction to the recent news:

Here’s who owns what many of us might assume are American beers:

SABMiller (South Africa) owns: all Miller beers, Icehouse, Olde English, Mickey’s, Milwaukee’s Best, Henry Weinhard, Leinenkugel …view the full list.

Molson Coors (Canada) owns: all Coors beers, Killian’s, Blue Moon, Keystones, Zima (haha), and more listed here

InBev (Belgium) owns: all products from Budweiser, Michelob, Busch, Natural, Hurricane Malt Liquor, King Cobra, Red Hook, see the full list for InBev here and old Bud brands here R.I.P.

Pabst and Milwaukee are pretty excited about their recent jump up in patriotic appeal, as they’re the largest beer maker that can say their profits remain in the States.

The irony is they don’t own a single brewery- yeah, they contract all beer making out to MillerCoors, a joint venture between SABMiller and Molson Coors. So Pabst isn’t even really brewed by an American company. Dammit.

Well what can we do? Check out this list of the top-rated beers in America. As for the more affordable American-made beers? I’ll try and make a list up for us frugal freedom fighters. Until then, I guess grab yourself one of these:
