I had a barrel a few weeks ago. While it is a great beer, I like the lighter Bud when drinking several. To add facts to your story... They didn't steal the recipe, they're fighting over the name Budweiser which is the town in Czechoslovakia where Budvar is still brewed and was Mr Busch's home town. Each has given one of those companies the right to use the name Budweiser. England sells AB as Bud but and the Czech vs as Budvar. AB made a deal with the Czech company to distribute their beer here under the name Czechvar. That's right, AB was and now AB-inBev is the importer and distributor for Czecvar. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
