In my entire time there I only ever saw Budweiser on tap once, it was at a bowling ally. Other then that at the John Barris pub I worked at we sold it by the bottle, it was probably the least selling beer we had tho. I saw it a bit more at clubs, as seemed clubs in the area often sold bottle beer, that would often sell Stella, Corona and Bud. But overall it did not seem like a popular beer in London, or at least I never noticed much Bud.

    Beer being sold at corner stores and grocery store to be drank at home, that could be a different story.

    When I went over a few years ago, Budweiser was just being introduced and you heard a lot of talk that people liked it. My buddy even said "It's better here than in the US." (This is in the northwest.) By the time of last year's FA Cup final, all those same people were calling it piss and refusing to drink it.

    Even though Bud sponsored the FA Cup, there was a choice of draft beer at the stadium. I just hope we get the same treatment at BMO some day!

    ^^ I was out of London where I saw it. It was in a lot of pubs. It was better than the US variety - but still aweful.

    Like most of the beer in the mainstream bud is more like a "beer beverage"
