食品伙伴网讯 据外媒报道,11月16日美国酒类饮料巨头星座集团(Constellation Brands)宣布以10亿美元收购圣地亚哥精酿啤酒厂Ballast Point。该啤酒厂刚于10月向美国证券交易委员会(SEC)正式递交了IPO手续,拟首次公开发行过亿美元股票。
位于圣地亚哥密拉玛(Miramar)的Ballast Point啤酒厂由家庭啤酒制造商怀特(Jack White)等人创立,近年来发展为圣地亚哥啤酒业名企。
部分原文报道如下:
The San Diego beer scene is seeing dollar signs this week with the announcement that Ballast Point sold for a whopping $1 billion. The buyer is Constellation Brands, a multinational beverage conglomerate that deems itself “the world's leading wine company.” Its dozens of wine brands include well-known Robert Mondavi, Ravenswood, and Clos du Bois.
It's also the third-largest beer producer in the U.S., though until now its beer portfolio has been craftless, composed entirely of Mexican brands Corona, Modelo, Pacifico, and Victoria.
