BREW... At this point I'm disinclined to bet on merger consummations. I just tend to think the fellow on the other side of the trade knows the odds better than I because I haven't studied the methods and wouldn't put enough into the individual situations to justify the research. The maximum reward would be 11%...not bad if the deal closes quickly at about that price, but if buyout of BREW goes flat...
It looks like it was trading a bit above 5 when the deal hit. That's 40+% downside for 11% upside. Not odds I like in a game I don't really know how to play.

But thanks for the heads up,
bob
