What is Budweiser Lager Beer?
Budweiser Lager Beer is an American-style lager made with water, malted barley, hops and yeast. The brand originated in St. Louis, and this beer is known for its pale colour and light body. Its flavour is mild and grainy, with gentle hop bitterness and a crisp, fizzy finish.
Serve it well chilled, as people commonly do in the United States, alongside burgers, grilled food or salty snacks. It also works at a casual gathering where a lighter-bodied beer is welcome. It contains 3.1 g of carbohydrate per 100 g, though the total energy adds up with larger servings. For a lighter pairing, choose grilled food over fried sides and keep water on the table.
