Product Information

Budweiser Budvar is a great beer because it has great raw materials and great brewers. They produce it in a slow and painstaking way. Its integrity is best served by its being produced in its town of origin, in a region with pride in its beer. [14] The brewery reported in 2015 that it had grown by 226% since 1991 and that its total sales volume had increased by 39% in the last ten years.

Vienna Lager: Also known as amber or Oktoberfest lagers, this style of beer originated in Austria, and is defined by its clear, reddish-brown appearance; mild hop profile and low bitterness; and malt-forward flavour. While not the most popular or well-known style, there are a few mainstream examples of this amber-hued drink, with Boston’s Sam Adams lager being a standout. Easily one of the better known dark lagers and a real crowd favourite for a reason, this is a must-try for anyone who loves lager; European or otherwise. Budvar Dark: Taste TestThis is the new style of label for Budvar Dark which is designed to make it more attractive to other places in Europe, with the addition of the words in Czech. Golden color with a subtle honey aroma and a trace of citrus, punctuated by notes of malt and noble hops. A perfectly balanced, full-flavoured lager with a crisp, clean and fast finish. Overall: A very enjoyable and well made lager beer. Good flavours, high drinkability, better than 95% of Australian lagers on the market and would choose this over those. The American classic of Hamburger and chips are a match made in heaven for an ice cold American lager like Budweiser. Due to the fatty nature of this dish it can easily become stodgy and boring, however, Budweiser's high carbonation cleanses the palate after each bite. Of course, all the above would be moot if the lager itself didn’t come up to scratch in the taste department. Thankfully, Freestar’s trio of European hops (Saaz, Perle and Hallertau, to be specific) give the lager a classic beer taste, with a nice mix of floral flavours, light bitterness and mild maltiness on the palate. While many low ABV lagers have strange or unpleasant aftertastes, Freestar has a clean finish which doesn’t linger.

Never had Budvar before, so when I found a single bottle of it at my local Bottlo, was keen to give it a try. I'm not sure if this is the 'Original Budweiser' or what the story behind this beer is, but it seems to be popular.

American Lager : A pale, thin-bodied style, American lagers have a much milder hop profile when compared to European lagers. Not subject to the strict brewing regulations in place in many European countries, American lagers can also incorporate adjuncts like rice or corn. Some of the best known examples of the style include the likes of Bud, Coors and Miller. Pale and lightly golden in appearance, with a medium, foamy head when poured, Breeze is an inviting looking lager with a moreish balance of flavours. Refreshingly effervescent to drink, the contrasting Jester and Boadicea hops used in its production give the beer subtle hints of spice and mild fruitiness that pair well with its sparkling character. Thanks to these juxtaposing flavours, as well as Breeze’s clean aftertaste, each sip of this easy-drinking lager seems to beget another, and another, and another… It's got a pretty dense body for a lager which is malty at first with a touch of sweetness to it, almost like the kind of sweet bread dough you get from brioche. It's not sweet, but it's finely balanced with the malt to even out the flavour. Known as "The King of Beers," Budweiser was first introduced by Adolphus Busch in 1876 and it's still brewed with the same high standards today. Budweiser is a medium-bodied, flavorful, crisp American-style lager. Brewed with the best barley malt and a blend of premium hop varieties, it is an icon of core American values like optimism and celebration.

That coat of arms is the one of Ceske Budejovice, the place where Budweiser Budvar is based and adds a wonderful detail to the label which, although elegant, is relatively ordinary.
