Budweiser Vs Budweiser Budvar | What's The Difference Let's Find Out 

Yes the dark Budvar is really nice.🍻

@@kpace8605 It could be truth. I worked for small old Bohemia Regent brewery (since 1379) and we sold beer into UK literally into tanks truck going there to brew it there. So may the Budwar use the same way.

@@drakulkacz6489 Your comment arrived as i had just finished a Budvar Dark Larger.I don't have it very often but it's £1.69 at Home Bargains.🤗 It's good.

They’re 4 for £6 in B&M 500ml bottles my go to beer recently flavour is top notch and the abv is 5% 👌

I believe that the ABV depends on the state. A guy I met from Oklahoma told me it's brewed to about 3.5% there.

@@FilthyTheDog1 Interesting. Im not sure, You do have different alcohol levels in supermarkets depending on how stringent / prohibitionist states they are. But the beer in bars and in liquor stores (off licences) should be 5%. None the less the difference between American and British Bud is astounding - something i do not understand.

That's funny! welcome to the world of brewed under license UK lager

Yeah, some Americans became blatantly rude and mocking with "their takes" on things from around the world. Almost every americanized thing is worse than the original xD

was to reference that it has heritage of royal brewery (hence still state owned)

Když nemohu posoudit Americké pivo které se u nás neprodává těžko posuzovat. Snad jen podle barvy je Americké pivo světlejší a drží pěnu déle.

@@JaroslavHrbek-jy2dh It's also much lighter in taste, almost like carbonated water that someone accidentally spilled a few drops of beer into. There are great American beers from smaller craft breweries, but their mass produced lagers are inferior to most Euro-lagers.

@@JaroslavHrbek-jy2dh ktomu je asi ten rejzovej skrob - rize je jedna z “tradicnich” surovin u piva Budejovickeho typu (alespon podle Anheiser Busch) :D

I think in Italy it is geo-protected. The American beer cannot be sold as "Budweiser" in many European countries

Czech Budweiser is geo protected in the EU. Check the bottle/can.

@@cehaem2 what does it mean? American Budweiser was sold in UK pre brexit

@@sender5804 UK courts decided that no one has exclusive rights to the brand and that it's impossible to confuse both.

@@cehaem2 ok, but what does the "Czech Budweiser is geo protected in the EU." mean?

It's like fornicating in a punt, fucking close to water.

It is not as simple. There were nationalistic fights in austria-hungary, and a group of brewers separated from the Samson company, and established Budweiser. But they lacked finances to start, and then the brewery was built for a while. In this period showed the american and bought the recipe. Since USA has no local trademark protection, anyone can brew champagne or produce roquefort cheese.

The german purity law only applies to german beers. Imports can be sold as beers even if they didn't obey the law because of trade agreements within the EU. Nowadays the purity law is worth less anyways because everything the beer gets filtered through doesn't have to be on the list of ingredients. So you basically can do a lot with a beer without breaking the law.

Its a Czech beer for god sake

Budweiser is an American beer made by Anheuser-Busch & Company; you are talking about another brand called Budweiser Budvar. Do your research.@@tomassali8870

American one is made in Saint Loos

Budvar is not version, but original from Budweis the tradition goes for about 700 years, as the well for the brewery still is still from that time (it is protected), original royal brewery (hence slogan beer for kings slogan quickly ripped of by us lie king of beers), and rice is NOT an original budweiser (from budweis) ingredient. US one should be called Saint Luiser (or more accurately Saint Looser as it is product of saint loos at best)

I am on a train home after a night in the beer, after reading this comment the lady next to me is wondering why I am giggling uncontrollably

American bud is 5% for the last 20 years at least

I remember the draught US Bud in the 80s being 5%

Never known UK beers to be stronger than the originals due to our alcohol duty favouring lower ABVs.

@@noggintube know exactly what you mean, some work far better with local water than others do, one thing springs to mind is all the breweries (mostly now gone) In the Burton on Trent area and some of the beers that are now brewed elsewhere and are nowhere near as good

@@noggintube Absolutely agree with Simon about these two 'beers' , but I also agree with you that the UK makes some , many even , excellent ales and stouts . Our brewing masters understand their local waters and have had time , decades maybe centuries , to develop their beers . I live north of bristol and my water comes from the Sharpness canal .... I know , WTF is going on ! Well i has been a while since I last made a brew , but I found after experimenting that lager was definitely a no no here , which suits me fine ! I found that a trad ale , say Six X or Doombar style , had a chance , but stout was the business . From the bottom of a bottle of Original Guinness I used to get my stout yeast . Then I would use proper malt grains and crack the chocolate malt (burnt coke of malt ) and some wheat malt ( provides more head ) and boil away . it would give Guinness a challenge to be honest . Did you know Dublin , named by the Vikings long ago , means black pool in Norse ? That is because of the dark water in the river tainted by the peat bogs ..... Sharpness canal ..... see what I mean ! Lol . ATB

It was AB that sued Budvar.

​@@cehaem2 If so, it shows how "evil" AB is. Lawsuit against the original brewery for using its own name.

@@ad.ke.7224 nonsense. Budvar is younger than ABs registered brand name.

@@cehaem2 But the name "Budweis" is WAY older than the US brand. In fact it was what inpired the US company for the name. US brand legislation is a protectionist caricature of what legislation is supposed to be.

@@HotelPapa100 They own the trademark for longer than Budvar exists. They registered - they own it in the US which makes sense since Budvar didn't exist in 1876..

Carlsberg is nectar in Denmark, they have improved the uk version

I doubt the US brewed Budweiser was any good to begin with

Racist!

Miller is far far worse pure sin masquerading as a beer. Even the sweet sickly smell is horrendous before you even think about drinking it. Worst beer I ever tried was Flame from new zealand.

Simon never does his research. Just makes things up and spreads the rubbish. Needs to be more like Craft Beer Channel. Spend less time drinking and more time recording quality content than pushing out a higher quantity of lackluster content.

​@@Shadz01Sick burn

@@Shadz01 haha It's hilarious that Simon actually "liked" this comment. But I know he just blindly likes every comment he sees without reading most.

US Budweiser is brewed in several places in the USA and around the world including UK. Using local water.

had the black budvar from Home Bargs the other week - delish

My ancestors died for that beer! 🇺🇸 How dare you. You're a disgrace.

Keep up the good work Simon really enjoying your video's.👍

It went to 4.8% in between. It definitely worsened the taste too. It was never a beer of choice for me but if it was ice cold it was an acceptable drink on a warm summer day.

The cost to ship across the Atlantic is quite prohibitive for cheap, volume goods, so I doubt it was ever imported from the US.

Advertising

@@heiltd1286 yeah, exactly, but people have taste 'buds' (see what I did there) and should be able to tell when something tastes like diluted urine and costs much the same as something that tastes nice even if they're thick

Never worked out whether bud light drinkers hate beer or hate themselves?

@@Jerry-xx3qk Both I think. Either way they're not the most inspiring people.

Surely not the "fake" Luton brewed becks!

@@peterm7548 It's been a good while since I had either, maybe I should do a comparison! Mostly been drinking stouts & ales recently.

That was a RACB classic 🤣
