Inbev seeks to buy SABMiller

ONDON—Anheuser-Busch InBev NV is talking to banks about financing what could be a roughly £75 billion ($122 billion) deal to buy global beer rival SABMiller PLC, according to a person familiar with the matter.
A tie-up between the world’s two largest brewing companies has been rumored for years, but a revival in global merger activity this year has sparked renewed speculation about a deal. AB InBev isn’t in active discussions with SABMiller SAB, +9.82% , said the person, explaining the company is waiting to line up its financing before making a formal approach.
The talks about financing come on the heels of an approach by SABMiller to buy Dutch brewer Heineken NV HEINY, +1.49% which Heineken said Sunday it had rejected. The U.K. brewer hasn’t been discouraged by Heineken’s initial rejection and would consider another bid, according to another person familiar with the discussions.

90% of the US beer market would be owned by one company. That doesn't even touch the argument of the middle tier distribution affiliation.

I don't see the Justice Dept. approving this.
