“Hopefully the Engler group will not name their next beer Ludweiser…”

Ironic example, as Anheuser-Busch stole their beer's name from a Czech brewery in the town of Budweis.

Their beer is _________________? Nondescript? Forgettable? Or maybe nonexistent – as the story pointed out.

Wikipedia:

Scottish & Newcastle plc was one of the world’s leading “long alcoholic drinks” (LADs) companies with strong positions in 15 countries, including leadership in the UK, France and Russia. It was headquartered in Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. In the last 20 years, S&N expanded significantly from its home base to become a major international business with beer volumes growing almost tenfold. It was listed on the London Stock Exchange and was once a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index but it was acquired jointly by Heineken and Carlsberg in April 2008, with the company's assets being split between them. The trading name “Scottish & Newcastle UK” continues to be used, for the time being, to denote the UK trading operation of Heineken International.

The Swiss are always trying to make money off other people's ideas. Their beer is crap.

My concern is with your information that Heineken bought Newcastle. Does this mean that Jordy Brown is going to change? If it does I'm afraid my heart will be broken.
