03 May Anheuser-Busch InBev to Purchase Wicked Weed Brewing
As reported by Brewbound.com, Anheuser-Busch InBev is making its first US craft brewery purchase of 2017. They’ve announced the acquisition of well-known Asheville, North Carolina-based Wicked Weed Brewing.
Specific terms of the acquisition have not yet been disclosed and the deal is subject to regulatory approval.
In a press release, co-founder Walt Dickinson shared, “We have chosen to partner with The High End to position ourselves to make Wicked Weed what we imagined it could be when we first sat at a craft beer bar and talked about opening a brewery. As a brewer, giving our team more resources to continue innovating our portfolio and the ability to reach more craft drinkers allows us to keep putting the beer and the people first.”
Wicked Weed Brewing would mark the 10th US craft brewery to sell to Anheuser-Busch InBev since 2011.
