The real Bud Bowl will kick off this summer inside a Washington courthouse, one antitrust lawyer believes.
A well-placed source, who correctly predicted in early January that regulators were going to sue to block the $19 billion Anheuser-Busch InBev buyout of Grupo Modelo, believes A-B will not be able to settle the suit and that it will head to trial — likely this summer.
“There is no way this is going to settle,” the source said. “You can just tell — the two sides are very far apart.”
