New 'beer king' faces fashion backlash

Carlos Brito, this tee shirt’s for you. 

Rival (and much smaller) St. Louis brewer Schlafly is offering a new tee shirt that pokes fun at InBev chief Carlos Brito’s lack of St. Louis roots. 

Overly high school conscious St. Louis is almost as well know for variations on the shirt’s question—“Anyone know where Brito went to high school?”—as it is for the baseball Cardinals and Anheuser-Busch. 

This month the iconic A-B agreed to be acquired by Belgium-based InBev. 

The tee shirt was spotted at the Scottish Arms restaurant and bar.
