Craft beer brewers target world’s largest beer maker for purchase

America’s independent craft breweries are raising money to attempt a massive purchase.

The #TakeCraftBack campaign is an effort crowd source $213 billion to offer to buy Anheuser Busch InBev.

AB-InBev and other large beer companies have begun purchasing craft breweries and distributing their products.

Julia Herz with The Brewers Association says #TakeCraftBack a tongue-in-cheek attempt to ensure an advanced beer marketplace and culture.

“Beer gives back to our communities in so many exponential ways, and that’s due to the 5,000 plus independent breweries in the United States,” said Herz.

So far, the effort has raised a little more than $3.5 million.
