Talking to said friends that work at InBev, it's less beer in general. Gotta remember that the core customer base of beer companies are people knocking back 12+ most nights of the week. Those people are (literally) dying out and (thankfully) are not really bring replaced.

Also have to remember that a fairly large portion of "local" craft breweries, at least in terms of sales volume, are owned by corporations like InBev

This is a fair point, I was a bit dissapointed when I learned that my go-to beer that I thought was from an (admittedly large) craft brewery was just an InBev subsidiary (Space Dust)
