Quilmes no longer Argentine?

It's so confusing. It looks so Argentine--with the blue-n-white label echoing the flag--and it even tastes somehow Argentine--especially when served from the tap as chopp, with salty mani along for the ride. But the news is that a Brazilian company acquired Quilmes yesterday. Local press is shocked at the national identity change, as am I.

La cerveza Quilmes ya no es argentina
El control de la cervecería Quilmes pasa a manos extranjeras
