世界名牌博览：百威（在线收听）

Budweiser，中文名为“百威”，世界知名的啤酒品牌，1876年诞生于美国。Budweiser在其百年发展中，一直以其纯正的口感，过硬的质量赢得了全世界消费者的青睐，成为世界最畅销、销量最多的啤酒，长久以来被誉为是“啤酒之王”。

Budweiser is one of the biggest selling beers in the world. It is brewed by the Anheuser-Busch breweries in the United States but it has its origins in the Czech Republic. In 2008 Anheuser-Busch sold most of the operations to the Belgian-Brazilian beer giant InBev, to create the largest brewing company in the world. Brewing of the pale lager beer started in 1876 and has become an American icon. Budweiser accounts for over half of all beers sold in the USA. Like other beers, Budweiser is known for its distinctive bottle and label, both of which remained largely unchanged since 1876. Tradition is important to the company. Its website says: “At Budweiser, we take enormous pride in brewing the great American lager. But being a part of American history and life is what really makes us proud.”
