Good for Yuengling. I think their greatest achievement is making it this far and into their market share while still being independently owned.

Isn't that Cindy's company? Or am I mixing up my breweries?

Cindy owns a pretty nice chunk of that company. I wonder what she made on the sale.

So is anyone going to give McCain flak for his wife's company going out of the country? Or is that just pushed under the rug?

Cindy's family owns a very large wholesaler. They buy the beer from the brewery and manufacturer, then the distributors, restaurants, and bars buy from her family's company. These are HUGE political businesses with very lucrative contracts. Frank Fuhrer (Allegheny College benefactor) has the contractual control for all of Western PA.

I don't think its a big deal where her investments are as long as they are not in businesses that aid our enemies or that get special legislation from her husband.
