Introduction
Budweiser is a world-famous beer brand, which originally originated in the United States but is now produced and sold in various countries around the world. They have launched their Budweiser Magnum Strong version in the Indian market, which is a premium strong lager beer.
This beer is specially made for those who prefer a darker, stronger, and deeper taste than the usual light beer.
Budweiser Magnum Strong is ideal for those who enjoy a more robust drinking experience.
Aroma and Taste Experience
First you will get the sweet aroma of dark malt (barley malt) and the light bitter smell of hops.
The first sip has a kind of strong kick, then comes the smooth and dark texture.
There is a slight warmth in the mouth, and the bittersweet taste gradually blends.
Despite the relatively light fizz (carbonation), it often feels heavy, which proves its strong characteristics.
Taste Type:
Dark, malty, sweet taste + bitter finish of hops + smooth texture
Alcohol Content (ABV)
Budweiser Magnum Strong typically contains 6.5% to 7% ABV (alcohol by volume).
This is much higher than regular lager beers (4-5% ABV), so it has a quick effect and is considered a strong beer.
If not consumed in moderation, there is a possibility of getting drunk quickly.
Packaging and Presentation
Available in a dark brown glass bottle with a premium design label in gold and black.
Two types of packaging are commonly seen in the market:
650 ml Glass Bottle
500 ml Can
Its bottle and label design makes it stand out from other ordinary strong beers and gives it a premium look.
Price (Average Market Price in India)
Prices may vary slightly from state to state, but on average —
650 ml bottle: ₹180 – ₹220

Although the price is relatively high, it falls in the premium strong segment.
