Brussels-based Anheuser-Busch InBev S.A./N.V.’s battle continues to swallow London-based SABMiller PLC. Last month, both companies disclosed AB InBev’s approach, aimed at striking a deal that would create a beer behemoth worth some $275 billion.

At the time, The Am Law Daily reported that Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer had secured a role representing AB InBev, with Linklaters and Hogan Lovells advising SABMiller.
