Suit to Avoid Anheuser-Busch InBev, Grupo Modelo Merger
February 1/Washington/Wall Street Journal -- The U.S. government sued to block the world's biggest beer maker from spending $20 billion to get even bigger, the latest deal to fall prey to global antitrust regulators.
The surprise lawsuit seeks to block Bud Light maker Anheuser-Busch InBev NV's deal with the Mexican company that owns the Corona brand, and comes just a day after concession talks with the government broke down.
