AB Inbev Purchase liquor Manufacturer Hiball

Anheuser-Busch InBev (AB InBev NV) follows the same strategy of the soft drink giant in search of companies producing soft drinks healthy. After signing a deal last year with Starbucks to sell some tea ready to drink, the brewery closed on Thursday the purchase of Hiball, a San Francisco, California, which produces organic energy drinks, juices and aerated waters. The value of the acquisition was not disclosed.
