The Times said Miller has quietly expressed interest in a $45 billion offer from In-Bev.

SAB has reportedly told InBev that it is unable to engage in meaningful discussions until it completes it's a joint venture with Molson Coors in the United States.

In-Bev has made no formal overtures to Anheuser-Busch, and neither company is commenting on any potential deal. © Copyright 2012, St. Louis Public Radio
