Barley An ancient grain and a whole grain, barley gives Bud Light its signature malt character and golden color. Rice Grown in over countries and eaten by more people in the world than any other grain, rice also provides Bud Light with its crisp, clean finish. Always Enjoy Responsibly. That year, 14 million bottles 5 million l were sold. Sales for all alcoholic beverages declined in the United States after that date in the run-up to World War I and national Prohibition. When the company resumed brewing after Prohibition, Budweiser was its main brand and sole focus of its advertising efforts.
Diligent marketing and steadfast technical quality helped grow Budweiser, and after trading the top position several times with Schlitz in the decades after Prohibition, it became the number one beer brand in the United States in Budweiser was itself upstaged in by its sister brand, Bud Light, launched in , which remains the single largest beer brand in the world.
Battles with Europeans over ownership of the Budweiser name began as early as , when challenges by German and Bohemian breweries were settled by large payments. The matter remained mostly dormant until the mids as A-B attempted to widen its reach into Europe. After the fall of communism, A-B attempted to purchase its namesake brewery in Budweis, and at one point the workers went on strike to encourage the purchase.
Czech President Vaclav Havel reportedly got involved to stop the sale. Today, detente has been reached. The flagship beer, simply called Budweiser, is an extremely pale lager with a mild, bready aroma, a bit of apple fruitiness, a clean, dry palate, and a crisp finish. The recipe varies by a few percent to hit specific flavor targets depending on the characteristics of the grains available. The brewing process is a modification of the traditional American adjunct mash procedure.
For many decades, A-B employed a unique wort separation vessel called a Strainmaster, which consisted of a trough-like vessel with a conical bottom and a perforated manifold through which the clear wort is withdrawn. This system offers speed but is a bit less efficient that traditional lauter tuns, and for this reason they have been largely replaced. Bitterness is low, but noticeable on the palate at 10 to 12 international bitterness units.
Hops are mainly US-grown German varieties such as Hallertau, Saaz, and Tettnanger, with some European hops plus high-alpha and non-Germanic types such as Willamette in the mix. This complex hop bill allows brewers to maintain a consistent flavor and aroma despite changing characteristics of hops available on the market.
Prior to chilling, the wort undergoes a special stripping process to remove sulfur compounds, especially dimethyl sulfide. The hot wort is streamed in a filmy layer on the inner surface of thin vertical tubes through which is blown hot, sterile air. This method provides additional evaporation that allows for a shortened wort boil, more or less replicating the effects of the Baudelot wort chillers that the company used until the s.
Fermentation and lagering normally takes 21 days. By traditional standards, lagering is a bit warm, at 7. At these temperatures the yeast does a good job of reducing diacetyl and acetaldehyde which, contrary to a commonly held notion, is at very low levels in Budweiser but also allows for a bit of ester development, giving the beer its hint of applelike fruitiness.
Bottled Budweiser is pasteurized; draught is not. The company employs extensive quality control procedures, both mechanized and sensory, a necessity with any packaging brewery, especially one dedicated to producing an identical beer at locations across the globe. In one extreme measure, cans of Budweiser are frozen in liquid nitrogen and tasted years later, a check against slow drift of the famous flavor profile.
