Stainless Steel Mash TanksToday, Budweiser is brewed using the same standards as those used by Adolphus Busch more than 100 years ago. These are the stainless steel mash tanks where the brewing process begins as we mix ground barley malt with water. Milled rice is mixed with water in a cooker. The rice is boiled and combined with the malt in the mash tank. There, natural enzymes in the malt break down the grain's starch into fermentable sugars.

STRAINING

The mixture from the mash tanks is strained, separating a clear, sweet amber liquid called wort from the spent grain husks.
