Inbev, which has a market cap of $22.5 billion, has borrowed $45 billion to finance this deal. Who says leverage is going out of fashion?

LONDON (MarketWatch) — InBev said it’s completed the acquisition of St. Louis brewer Anheuser-Busch paying the agreed-upon $52 billion, or $70-a-share, price. The new Anheuser-Busch InBev will start trading on the Euronext Brussels exchange on Friday.

Here come the price hikes. Even as oil went up and back down the price of Bud never changed. InBev will have to do something major to cover their debt.
