 ==Not German== 

 Since Beck's sold in the U.S. — which has to be one the brand's biggest markets — hasn't been made in Germany for a year now, one would assume its long-advertised status as ""the best-selling German beer in the world"" might no longer be applicable. 

 For my part as a beer afficienado, I find InBev's action in turning the brand over to the General Motors of Fizzy American Froth, Annheuser-Busch, obnoxious in the extreme. First they changed the time-honored label, then they changed the product by assigning production to AB. Now I suggest they change the name to Ersatz Becks — either that or ""Bud's Beer"" — and admit that their packaging stamped repeatedly with the legend ""German Quality"" is false advertising. There's nothing German about it. 

 Of course, from InBev's point of view, it's all just part of the Jagd nach Geld. Philistines!
