Which company is the largest producer of beer in the world?

• A. MillerCoors
• B. Molson-Coors
• C. SABMiller
• D. AB InBev

Answer: (D)

The largest producer of beer by volume is AB InBev. This comes from a long sequence of mergers and acquisitions that massively expanded its scale and global reach: joining Interbrew and AmBev created InBev, acquiring Anheuser-Busch added a huge portfolio of US brands, acquiring Grupo Modelo brought brands like Corona into the mix, and the 2016 purchase of SABMiller propelled overall production to new highs across more regions. That combination of many strong brands spread across many markets gives AB InBev a larger overall beer output than any other company. The other names are either regional players or are smaller in scale, and SABMiller no longer exists as an independent company after being acquired.
