Report: AB legal scuttlebutt in Illinois may affect craft-friendly Windy City Distribution
The chief legal counsel for the agency has advised commissioners that the law would support a ruling that Anheuser-Busch is no longer permitted to hold a 30 percent interest in City Beverage.
If the commission follows the opinion of its legal staff, the decision on Anheuser-Busch could affect other brewers in Illinois. Two Brothers Brewing Co. in Warrenville started its own distributorship because it could not find wholesalers to carry its products. Two Brothers maintains a close relationship with Windy City Distribution. Calls to both businesses were not returned.
Worth noting that the Save the Craft blog broke this news earlier in the week.

Breweries: Anheuser-Busch, Two Brothers Artisan Brewing
Pretty sure that should be affect, not effect.
Good catch
