The multinational brewer will take $1.8bn (€bn) from the sale in a bid to offset debts incurred from its purchase of Anheuser-Busch. The group claims that it will continue to exchange best practices with KKR that will see the equity buyer exclusively distribute Budweiser, Bud-Ice and Hoegaarden.
Under additional terms of the deal, Anheuser-Busch InBev says it also has the right to possibly back the operations within a five-year period.
