Budweiser
Budweiser is the American lager Adolphus Busch introduced in St. Louis in 1876, brewed from two-row and six-row barley malt, rice and a blend of American and European hops. After primary fermentation it matures over beechwood chips, where the yeast carries out a second fermentation that builds natural carbonation. It pours clear gold with a subtle honey note and a trace of citrus on the nose, followed by soft malt, a light grainy sweetness from the rice and a gentle noble-hop finish. The body is medium and the close crisp and clean.
