The company was protesting over Brooklyn's bid to trademark the phrase 'Becks Buns' with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Last year, he applied to officially rubber-stamp the phrase under classifications such as sauces, beers, wines, sauces, clothing, and even kitchen knives.
But now the warring parties have come to an agreement.
Brooklyn's US firm Buster Hot Sauce Inc, which filed the trademark application, has agreed to delete the two classifications which are linked to 'Beer' and "Distilled spirits; wine; mirin in the nature of Japanese shochu-based mixed liquor'.
The deletion of those classifications was 'in compliance with a third party agreement", which should mean it's a formality for the trademark to now be allowed.
The alcohol giants had enlisted hotshot lawyer Nadya Davis, from Holland & Hart LLP, while Brooklyn hired trademark legal specialists Merchant & Gould PC.
Brooklyn had his hands full for this legal battle, as Brauerei Beck & Co's fought numerous US firms for using similar words such as Secks, Brasserie Beck, Becks Master Brew and Buck's Landing.
Brauerei Beck & Co's parent company AB InBev is one of the world's biggest breweries with "21 iconic billion-dollar brands' and one in four lagers sold throughout the world comes from the firm, according to its website.
This includes Stella, Budweiser, Corona Extra, Carling, Skol and Jupiler.
David and Victoria Beckham's agony as family feud explodes into WW3 and pals say 'Brooklyn has totally cut them off'
Meanwhile, the star's feud with his family still wages on.
Victoria Beckham's long-awaited Netflix programme is due for release in October, but eldest son Brooklyn won't feature amid the family's ongoing feud.
It is understood she will not touch on the simmering feud - although she has promised there will be 'tears' in the four-parter.
Nicola, 30, and Brooklyn, 26, have reportedly been keeping their distance from his family, after they failed to attend dad David's 50th birthday party.
Chef and photographer Brooklyn has continued to gush over his actress spouse throughout - despite "cutting off brothers Cruz and Romeo" in the drama - amid fears he's "obsessed" with his marriage.
A source added to us: 'The children hardly feature — it's simply not a case of Brooklyn and Nicola being cut, as they weren't in it to start with.
"This is very much a project focussing on Victoria's transaction from pop star to businesswoman and designer."
The Sun has learned that Victoria comes across 'brilliantly' - continuing from her scene-stealing one-liners in David's own four-parter.

Award-winning Glasgow restaurant closes - here's what's next
The city's first Vietnamese canteen, Hanoi Bike Shop, will cease trading on August 25 this year. Christie & Co is now seeking a leaseholder for the site on Ruthven Lane. The licensed restaurant, located in the heart of the West End, is situated just off the popular Byers Road. A spokesperson said: "The restaurant serves 80 covers plus an external seating area, and would suit a variety of concepts, having traded as a Vietnamese canteen until recently. "The area is a destination for 'oodies and late-night bar goers, and benefits from high footfall from Glasgow University's student population."
