Budweiser

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Budweiser is an adjective in German language describing something or someone from the Bohemian city Budweis (České Budějovice), until 1919 part of Austria-Hungary, in Czech Republic today.

It is also a trademark for two beer companies:

  • since 1876 as Budweiser (Anheuser-Busch), from Anheuser-Busch in the United States, marketed as "Bud" in France and elsewhere and "Anheuser-Busch B" in Germany
  • since 1895/1945 Budějovický Budvar, from České Budějovice in the Czech Republic, known as "Czechvar" in the United States and Canada
