(Adds detail)

By John Balassi and Mike Gambale

NEW YORK, Jan 13 (IFR) - Order books for brewing giant AB InBev's jumbo acquisition bond closed Wednesday at US$110bn, two sources close to the matter told IFR.

If the final tally does not change significantly, it will be the biggest order book ever for a corporate bond deal, topping Verizon (NYSE: VZ - news) 's US$101bn in orders for a US$49bn bond deal in 2013.

"The number won't be drastically different," saidone banker on the deal. (Reporting by John Balassi and Mike Gambale; Editing by Natalie Harrison and Marc Carnegie)
