Anheuser-Busch Company Description
Anheuser-Busch Companies (A-B) wants to be the life of every party, whether with its beer, its theme parks or its majestic Clydesdales. The company is best known for Budweiser (the world's largest selling beer) and Bud Light, along with labels Busch and Michelob. A-B also owns a 50% stake in Mexico's GRUPO MODLEO, maker of Corona and Negra Modelo. In addition to beer, Anheuser-Busch produces energy drinks and non-alcoholic malt beverages. The company has several operations outside of brewing as well, including its Busch Entertainment theme-park business (which is slated to be sold). In 2008 Belgium brewer InBev acquired A-B for $52 billion in 2008 and created Anheuser-Busch InBev (ABInBev).
