You have too much faith in the American pallet. Most Bud drinkers will
reject the real thing.

I asked them what their favorite beer might be, thinking I'd get

Ah, but there is Budweiser and then there is Budweiser. One is a
real beer brewed in Budvar, Czech Republic, for hundreds of years.
Budvar is short for Budejovicky Pivovar - "Brewery from the city of
Ceske Budejovice" Budweis is the German name of Budejovice and
Budweiser means "from Budejovice". The other is absolute crap brewed
in the USA under a stolen name that Anheiser Busch has absolutely no
right to use. You can get real Budweiser in many parts of Europe,
but I have never seen it in the USA. Try it once and you will never
touch the American swill again.
