Budweiser`s long and storied history as "The King of Beers" is deep rooted in American culture, and has since grown to become one of the largest beer brands in the world. The American-style lager, was introduced in 1876 when company founder Adolphus Busch set out to create the United States` first truly national beer brand – brewed to be universally popular and transcend regional tastes. Each batch of Budweiser stays true to the same family recipe used by five generations of Busch family brewmasters. Budweiser is a medium-bodied, flavourful, crisp and pure beer with blended layers of premium American and European hop aromas, brewed for the perfect balance of flavor and refreshment. Budweiser is made using time-honored methods including "kraeusening" for natural carbonation and Beechwood aging, which results in unparalleled balance and character.
