Belgians buy Budweiser

[maikonmorais]

BURGER KING NOW ALSO BELONGS TO BRAZIL

[Hanzza]

That's weird. I didn't realize InBev bought a soda brand.

[crazydavedisco]

I work in a brewery in the UK and we produce millions of cans and bottles of BUD every week!

[saul25850]

you idiot! inbev is belgian and brazilian, actually more brazilian than belgian you retard piece of shit.

[Xarcas]

1) any deal that makes belgians manufacture beer is a good deal, especially for you culturally backwards americans.

2) trust me, believe me, hang my mom if it aint true, never ever have i seen a belgian with a budweiser in his hand, EVER. Exept ofcourse that one time on the 4th of july and the belgian beeing me, other than that ,believe me we wouldn't touch the crap with a 6 foot stick unless we got money outta it somehow

[kebekske]

Take the freedom out of it? We got no patriot act at least. And we're FREE to get healthcare, FREE to get welfare and FREE to walk across the street without seeing guns everywhere.

I'd rather be a commy than some moneyhungry capitalist who cares nothing for his brothers and sisters.

[lucasandrade6]

InBev was created in 2004 from the merger of the Belgian company Interbrew and the Brazilian company AmBev.

Burger King Holdings Inc agreed to sell itself to investment firm 3G Capital for $3.26 billion.

3G's backers include Brazil's Jorge Paulo Lemann, who sits on the board at Anheuser-Busch InBev NV. Forbes magazine estimates his fortune at $11 billion.

[matbru1986]

Notting as good as a fine belgian beer, exept that new one, hows it called again butt..... buttweiner something........ tasts a bid like buttjuce.....

[Deratrius]

This guys was just reporting news with a touch of humor... I am also belgian and didn't get all offended by this.

[jacksonmarquice]

Belgium is a lot freer than the USA believe me!!! Same goes with every other country of the European Union !!!

[hedonismrocks]

@jacksonmarquice Oh please...

[matbru1986]

@hedonismrocks hes talking the truth, we arnt brainwached by hollywood makebelive, butt ofcours, you wont believe me, hollywood says the notting but good about the USA, and im sure your pleased to hear it, god bles amarica and fuck all other retarded countrys hé.

PS: its sarcasm, deal whit it, open your eyes

[hedonismrocks]

@matbru1986 leer engels man en probeer iets minder eenzijdig en naief te doen.. tis niet alsof ons land zo perfect is...

klungel

[matbru1986]

@hedonismrocks ja, belgie is idd nie perfect, het gebrek aan een beetje trots is wat ons een apenland maakt, een van de beste landen om te leven, een rijk culturele geschiedenis, een cullinair paradijs en vol met gefrusteerde klootzakken... kijk es naar uzelf, dwaas

[AsGardSGO]

Funny shit... Funny shit

At least the bud-weiser wil become a real beer finaly.

But if one wants the real good stuff; orval - Leffe - Duvel - La chouffe - Westmalle - Palm - Hoegaerden (White Celis in the US) - Jupiler - Stella - Chimay - Tongerlo - .... and 100+ more to discover

[FrostieBE]

im from belgium and never head of that beer. ive heard american beer is bad. pussy alcohol and poor taste

try our most comercial beer "jupiler"

[lucasandrade6]

idiot...imbev is more brazilian than belgium

[Pungarox]

I'll still drink that beer, i love it and no1 is goin' to take that from me. BUD

[ardiesken]

sorry, but belgium is the beercountry of the world

[Animatixxking]

dude belgian beer is the best ,so go fuck ur self

[sebken23]

Belgium just outclasses american we have the best in the world

[eXowomb]

we did buy it but mostly for the supply network. we don't really care about the beer tbh.

[judasnils]

Belgium beer outclasses american beer by far

[krikkevalleke]

american beer sucks!!

go belgium, we have much better beers than you!

we have:

jupiler,

stella artois,

grimbergen,

duvel,

leffe,

...

[SecretSepp]

go Belgium

[earthwolf82]

Why does this remind me of a live version of Phillip Norris off Liquid generation? The delivery of his speech and the use of images to match his lines.

[teaparty111]

Belgian beer is some of the world's best--especially the trapist monk brands. BUT I will NOT DRINK BUD PRODUCTS ANYMORE! The stock isnow on the Belgian market--all our American shares were force sold to small holders--and of course the big holders made real money. BOYCOTT BUD PRODUCTS--IT IS NOT AMERICAN BEER ANYMORE. They will keep the plants here? WHY? Cheaper travel expense--

[eXowomb]

Maybe you should boycot your military too then, because Belgium's FN Herstal supplies the US military with 70% of its small arms. FN Herstal is responsible for the M249 SAW (= FN Minimi), M240 GPMG (= FN MAG), FN SCAR (USSOCOM's new rifle), and makes most of the USMC's M16s under license in FN's US plant. FN also owns Browning & US Repeating Arms (Winchester, etc), 2 more American icons.

Oh, and don't go to Food Lion supermarkets anymore, they're owned by Belgium's Delhaize Group.

[teaparty111]

Don't care for them much anymore either!

If I want Belgian Beer---I'll buy some of that great MONESTARY beer that sets you on your ass---real beer.

CHEERS!----TEA

Budweiser tastes like shit anyway and Belgians buying it is like the FRENCH buying ENGLISH restauants.

[CrashmagProductions]

Smart ass, man, if you don't like the beer cool, but to not realize how big a deal losing American ownership is, kiss your country goodbye. Be sure in the future they will change the product and close plants, to be joking on this, just shows how little backbone Americans have and how little they care about their country. We have become a 3rd world Country, not going to be, we have become it. Right now you live in a third world country, with that also goes your rights, and the internet,enjoy

[6TA]

I'm from Belgium and I find this takeover so funny. How many Balgian great companies have been sold out to American or whatever foreigners. You, Americans, dare criticize a free-trade system you've created. Local products are no more, everything is about greed. Besides, I think Bud is probably the worst beer I've ever drunk, so you don't loose much.

[kingredrider1]

heil to stella artois !

[CrashmagProductions]

A free trade system that Clinton created, not the American people, most people don't want the trade setup we have

[Fixkes]

free trade is much older than Clinton

[kingredrider1]

great talking , bud sucks . before it was buyed bu us belgians . we show you what is real beer !

[Fixkes]

Indeed, I guess the rate "Belgian brands bought by Americans" vs "American brands bought by Belgians" is like 10000 to 1.

[lucasandrade6]

@6TA InBev was created in 2004 from the merger of the Belgian company Interbrew and the Brazilian company AmBev.

Burger King Holdings Inc agreed to sell itself to investment firm 3G Capital for $3.26 billion.

3G's backers include Brazil's Jorge Paulo Lemann, who sits on the board at Anheuser-Busch InBev NV. Forbes magazine estimates his fortune at $11 billion.

[DenDikkeLu]

American companies are buying European companies al the time but if a company from a small country buys a big American company it's a big disaster. You Americans are just so jealous because We Europeans and in specially Belgium are the biggest and best breweries in the world. Just once stop being so patriotic. Why cant something that is not American be good. Just try stella, Jupiler and you will see.

you americans just don't have good taste.

[cresoking]

Belgian? Interbrew is belgian, INBEV is Brazilian-belgium. The merit must go to the brazilian CEO of Inbev, Carlos Brito, who leaded the negotiation.

[vVogeltjes]

ah yes, but brazilians aren't european so it would be unamerican to hate on them. when did facts ever get in the way of the US? they can't demonize brazilians. that's the US for ya.

[reine00x]

Belgium isn't socialistic.

The socialists are in the opposition.

[Varangian13]

Yeah well we have health care, Pensions and stuff. Therefore they think of us as evil socialist who have limited freedom and no private property...

[boytgp]

Indeed. Maybe our social security does have its negative points aswell but we may be very happy that we got a system like that. Secondly it makes sure that its much safer to live in a country with that kind of system.

[vVogeltjes]

it's always funny to hear freedom loving americans blame liberals for being anti-american. liberal comes from liberty and means freedom. so freedom loving americans hate libertarians for wanting more freedom. funneh.

[vVogeltjes]

socialism is also one of the reasons that the capitalist flemings want to seperate from the chronically socialist walloons.

[mundarat]

its the best fuckin thing that budweiser could have done hopefully the Belgiums can make it not taste like rat piss. king of beers is not what budweiser is. and im not belgian or american im an aussie some of the best beer drinkers in the world and im ashamed that we even sell bud over here

[Cathode0]

The idea behind Budweiser is that you can drink more of them in one night (two or three times as many bottles! A bad for movie beer, but great one for games.), and as far as we Americans know, this phenomenon goes hand in hand with that rat piss flavoring. There's no way in hell the Belgians are goona be able to all the sudden solve this problem over night. It was better off in our hands imo, I don't even think they have a baseball or cricket in Belgium.

[Mohachedachamalamo]

Oilsjt carnaval op seconde 40 godverdoemme

[Badoso5]

Inbev is Belgian-brazilian. CEO: Brazilian Carlos Brito.

[Rdarquennes]

"Lookout Belgian Waffelmakers!"

The fact that that's the only thing you ingnorant americans know about belgium is pififul. We have the best beers in the world, we are the country with the most number of different beers in the world, we invented french fries en bake em like no other country can, we are waffelmakers en famous for our chocolate, en not to forget Brussels, the capital of Europe, the NAVO is stationed here, we have the best social security system in the world, and we could keep goin

[sakul777]

our mayonaise is alot better! :P and we actually dont eat waffles...

[patsblueribbon]

not to say you dont have some great beers, but to say they are the best is an ignorant bias. so dont put all americans in one boat cuase your shit dont stink you "squat when you pee" eurotrash. these colors dont run and i dont drink AB anymore. lets not contest whos country is better at manufaturing crap that nobody needs like chocolate or fuckin fries, how about a contest on how much foreign aid we waste on countries that cant fight rape on their own in africa. we win i guess.fuck waffles

[jeffwest617]

That is a matter of taste , and since Bud Light and Bud are the best selling beers in the World ! you must know what the rest of the world knows Bud taste good or it would not be #1

[boytgp]

Considering that the most of the countrys beer is sold in their own country then in belgium live 10 million people... euhm How many ppl live in America.... right ;)

Dont critize and try some stella :)

[zomgsekk]

Stella is probably the worst beer in Belgium. But yeah, American Bud is about as bad. I critisize Belgian Pils, it's just plain bland.

If you really want to taste a good lager or pils, try the Czech bud, or even pilsner urquell.

But then again, if you really want to taste real beer, try real belgian beers, they're famous all over the world for their taste and complexity.

[Levithannn]

Long live the free market. Isn't that one of the American values? hehehe i love this. Greetings from Bruges, Belgium.

[Powdermaker]

belgium conquers the world..then again we once had a queen in mexico, hell we even invaded mexico once!

[brouxbart]

VIVA mehico

[brouxbart]

Don't worry We belgians wont drink that ... i just can't call it a beer. We belgian have enough Beers Stella Artois, Jupiler, Hoegaarden, Palm, Leffe and the god of beers DUVEL

[Doblosky19]

I agree. Where I live, budweiser is loved. It makes me sick, it taste like piss. The best beers i've had were from Denmark, Germany, Italy, and Belguim they were delicious

[MaverickToro]

wow, you spent a whole episode on that.

Actually, it was kind of nice for a change. Good work!

[CDFDSFDSFDSF]

He couldn't have said it better.

[ladyjade3]

The rest of the world is going to start dumping dollars and this is what it looks like. The dollar is crashing, so better to get a company for your holdings rather than watch them evaporate. This is just the beginning.

[gracie1ella]

Don't worry. We've already fully adopted a Belgian treasure. Remember French Fries? Yeah, well they were invented in Belgium. Take that!

[brouxbart]

what you call french fries, Come to belgium and eat some real belgian fries

[gracie1ella]

Actually I HAVE had the distinct pleasure of eating Belgian fries in Belgium. A lovely experience and highly recommended!

: )

The Belgian waffles were great too (sorry to say I was too young to be trying the Belgian beers. I'll save that for next trip)!

[brouxbart]

belgian waffles :s

luikse wafels

of brusselse wafels

[Hypnotical]

Believe me, you guys can't make them like the real Belgian Fries. They don't even taste like Belgian Fries.

[Bal2T]

But Belgians are still able to produce their own French fries ;-)

[Mohachedachamalamo]

we should call them belgian fries :)

once there were some americans visiting a friend of mine, and they ate so many belgian fries they got sick because they're so damn good.

[brussels1908]

Socialist European welfare state MOEHAHAHAHAHAAA lmao.

Yeah right buddy.

[britethorn]

I like the ending when your voice returns to its normal level and you sound like a real person again. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside!

[BushIsTheDevil]

Budweiser is piss. It is made with rice of all things. Americans don't know what beer is. Just like they don't know what Democracy, Freedom and Civilization are. Bunch of uncouth low life red-necks. Belgium makes some of the finest beers in the world. Perhaps they will be able to bring you some real beer. Little chance anyone can ever teach you about Democracy, Freedom and Civilization though. lol at you fat, stupid, ignorant pigs.

[MattressGallery]

I was about to come back at you with insults against Canada, but then again, Canada is a pretty fucking boring country, and nobody knows anything about it.

But it's ok, a lot of Americans deserve to be made fun of. And as for obesity, Canada doesn't fare much better than the USA. Check your statistics.

[brouxbart]

DUVEL rules

[kissthechef]

DUUUUUVEL

[Bal2T]

I believe they got this beer out of some stores in southern states because of the link with Satan .. good going xD

[brouxbart]

DUUUVVVVEELLLL

[caswacth]

yeeaaaaaaaa

BELGIUM!!!!!!!!!!!!

and bud is a pussy bier

[moncmurph]

Were you a little drunk when you made this? You seem unsteady.

[brouxbart]

if they where drunk it wasn't from bud because i cant get drunk from that.

[vigo894]

This country was built by foreigners, and there are alot of foreign companies

working here. In my hometown, one of the

2 railroads here is owned by a Mexican

company. we even get concrete from Mexico

and they don't bug me. I would like to

the Belgians, welcome to America boys.

[cleo1994]

Stella Artois

A lovely name, a great beer.

[RogCBrand]

I don't drink beer, but I like Belgian waffles...

:P

[TimberGeek]

Can I keep my gun if it's a Belgium Grade Browning?

[Aerach89]

This one was very Stephen Colbert-esque. I liked it!

[commanderkool868]

the people that own(ed) it go to my school :-)

[ethanash]

awesome rant. i dont like budwieser, but i am disappointed about it being owned out of country, it feels a piece of america was sold off. it reminds me of the non cocacola drinkers that where upset when coke changed it formulas in the 80's, because they believed it to be a piece of america,that should not change.

[angielooo]

good ending... hahah!

[lawlzur]

koteski <333

[MercAndrew]

lol, not much on the feed today?

[579862BRADLEY579862]

LOL, "Kotetski TV". I wonder if the sale of Annheiser-Busch will have any impact on McCain's campaing (since Cindy is kind of a board member of that brewery)

[gizmo2020]

have to love forward looking economic policy by the Europeans, socialized health care, legal standards, human rights, utopia....well not quite but the tables are turning. Aside from your over grown military the EU is the economic commander of banking and industry and will make the most of your presidents great self serving policies to milk your debt driven consumption for their/our own bourgeois benefit... woohaaaaaaaaahahahaaaaaaaaa

[pccbassbone]

Yeah. I'm looking forward to waiting six months for bypass surgery.

[gizmo2020]

That my friend, in utopia - does not happen. It's your fault anyway, stop smoking, less red meat and oil and do more exercise. Bypass surgery is only a luxury for the opulent.

[njsykora]

Or it could just be said that Belgians make much better beer than Bud.

[HG2013]

damn you belgium! now all we need to do is get rid of baseball and america's gonna have so much to look forward to

[HeyJeremyC]

first!

[godlyfighter]

Kotetski. That's awesome!

[JRock589]

American beer is disgusting.

Give me a good Irish or German brew anyday, thats how it's done.

Whereas American beer tastes like well..piss..with a low alchohol content.

Gross.

Even Canadian beer is better, and thats saying ALLOT.

[Smitenheimer]

Politics, hooray
