Some beer drinkers recall the days of repeal, when there were 700 American breweries; now there are only 48. If trends continue, the top five companies (AnheuserBusch, Schlitz, Miller, Pabst and Coors) will have about 85% of the beer market by 1985. Traditionalists are full of memories of things Pabst, and no newfangled "light" beer with fewer calories and indistinct taste will substitute for the Real Thing. Those who like the lighter brews are quick to criticize the weighty liquids that they equate with...

Professional Anti-Saloon League furor ensued, and thus the names of two firms, once household words, flickered in U. S. minds which had almost buried them in subconscious limbo...
...Simultaneously wise Mark Sullivan (political critic) suggested that the eastern wets were all wrong in advocating "beer and wine" because in the West beer is dreaded as much as anything. The reason for the dread is that beer is associated with saloons. For it was brewers like Pabst and AnheuserBusch who monopolized the saloon business, controlled the licenses, exerted through the saloon an influence on public affairs.
