Anheuser-Busch Might Be Forced to Sell Distributing Rights

Long have I wondered how Anheuser-Busch could sell their own product yet competitor Miller Coors had to go through a distributor (River City Distributing). While good for them, it seemed it was a bit of a disadvantage to others. Well, a recent Senate committee meeting could force Anheuser-Busch to go through a distributor and sell the rights to those sales.

In theory, it seems to be a big win for all. Yet it would certainly mean a loss of jobs in one company and a rise in jobs in another. To some degree it seems unnecessary. I will reserve judgment for the foreseeable future, but read the article here and see what you think. Either way, it could ring in a massive amount of change for the beer world in Kentucky.
