One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.

Frequently asked questions
America's Leading Brewer
Anheuser-Busch is a giant of the American beer industry and a significant player in global brewing. Founded in the 1800s in Missouri, the company has grown from humble beginnings into a household name recognized worldwide. The brewing company has contributed to shaping America's beer culture and plays a prominent role in the international beer market as they export their beers worldwide, even if the US continues to be an incredibly important market for the company.
Founded by German Immigrants
The origins of Anheuser-Busch date back to the mid-19th century. German immigrants Eberhard Anheuser and Adolphus Busch set up a small brewing business in St. Louis, Missouri, and in 1876 they introduced the now iconic Budweiser. This beer quickly found favor with the public, and its success was a significant milestone for the company, establishing Anheuser-Busch as a critical player in the brewing sector and paving the way for its expansion.
Over 100 Different Beers
Currently, Anheuser-Busch's operations extend beyond Budweiser, with a diverse range of over 100 beers produced in 12 major breweries across the United States. The product line-up includes mainstream beers like Bud Light and a variety of specialty craft beers such as Goose Island and Blue Point. The brewing process is carefully controlled to maintain the distinctive characteristics of each brand. An essential aspect of Anheuser-Busch's business model is its multifaceted brand structure. The company is the umbrella under which a host of distinct beer brands coexist, each with its unique identity and target audience. These brands range from internationally recognized names such as Stella Artois and Corona to local favorites like Elysian and Wicked Weed. Other key players in the global beer and spirits market include names such as Carlsberg, Diageo, and Heineken.
One of the Biggest Brewers in the World
The brewing giant is an international powerhouse with its products reaching consumers in over 100 countries. The firm's vast distribution network ensures that regardless of whether a consumer wants a bottle of Budweiser in Sweden, a can of Stella Artois in Japan, or a pint of Goose Island in Australia, Anheuser-Busch is there to meet the demand. This global reach underlines the company's strong position in the international beer market and reflects its successful export strategies and the recognition its brands have worldwide.
