About
Budweiser is one of the world's most iconic beer brands, known as the "King of Beers," manufactured by Anheuser-Busch InBev (AB InBev). Founded in 1876 by Adolphus Busch in St. Louis, Missouri, Budweiser became the quintessential American lager through early adoption of pasteurization and refrigerated railcar distribution, combined with legendary advertising including the Budweiser Clydesdales, "Bud-weis-er" frogs, and "Wassup" campaigns. AB InBev acquired Anheuser-Busch in 2008 for $52 billion.
