Budweiser Budvar

So which came first?  This looks like a Czechization of Budweiser beer.  In fact the story is the other way around.  Of the three main Czech beers Budweiser Budvar is the only brewery that is still completely run by the Czechs (Pilsner Urquell is owned by SAB Miller, and Staropramen is owned in part by other another European brewery).  The founder of  American Budweiser toured the Czech area and basically stole the Budweiser brand from the Czechs.  Subsequently they have been in lawsuits ever since.  So as not to get confused, the Czech brand is called Czech Budvar in the U.S..  It's a nice beer, more hoppy then the Pilsner or the Staropramen, so the flavor has a nice little kick to it.
