Allow me to correct a sentence in the article:
Today, though, AB InBev confirmed to GBH that it has, in fact, invested in infested the website.

Re: AB acquires minority stake in Ratebeer
Interesting that they did it using something called ZX Ventures. They may be making acquisitions where the acquired company doesn't realize it's AB.
I wonder if ZX was chosen because A is first and B is second, and Z is last and X ous second to last in the alphabet (like the HAL is one before IBM theory about 2001).

Re: AB acquires minority stake in Ratebeer
A simple Googling of ZX Ventures reveals it's AB, so I'm sure no one is being bought out without knowing who it is.
I have over 9,000 posts on "another forum", which means absolutely nothing. Mr. Beer January 2014 Brewer of the Month with all the pomp and circumstance that comes with it...
