Budweiser, popularly referred to as Bud, is a global pale lager brand owned by the USA based Anheuser-Busch company. Budweiser is made with a proportion of rice in addition to barley malt, for which it has received some criticism, though the company takes the position that the rice gives the beer a lighter taste. Bud is produced in various breweries located around the United States and the rest of the world.
