"This is the famous Budweiser Beer. We know of no brand produced by any other brewer which costs so much to brew and age. Our exclusive beachwood aging produces a taste, a smoothness, and a drinkability you will find in no other beer at any price."
I've read this on the label of the odd American Bud I've drank, and I can't believe how obviously misleading it is. We're supposed to believe that a macro like Bud costs more to make than an imperial stout, barley wine, or really, any quality, full-flavoured beer?
So either Bud is lying through their teeth, or they are blissfully ignorant and unaware of the realities of brewing. Or (and this is probably how they justify the claim), they are referring to the collective cost of brewing ALL Bud, not just each bottle. Since Bud is by far the most-produced beer in the world, its easy to use a healthy dose of rhetoric to vindicate their claim.
This runs through my head every time I drink a Bud (not very often, but enough).
