About this beer
This is the 38th of 69 labels we have from Budweiser. It is one of 89 american lager / light lager labels approved in August 2026. It was submitted and approved the same day. The brand on the label is Budweiser; it was brewed at Anheuser-Busch, LLC in Missouri.
A framed heraldic shield dominates the upper half, rendered in black-and-white engraved line work with ornamental cartouches flanking the central AB monogram in a geometric roundel. Below, the brand name sits in a large serif typeface with calorie and carbohydrate information in red, set against a stark black ground that extends to the edges. The overall composition is symmetrical and shield-based, echoing traditional beer-label heraldry with modernist streamlining.
