Burgers and beer are an intrinsically linked food ritual, and Budweiser and burgers are two American greats. The goal is to elevate Budweiser through an authentic celebration of simple yet passionate craftsmanship of burgers and Bud. Please read the full brief in the Background tab below and then submit a 140 character idea! 

“Budweiser is the humble friend that makes enjoying your burger even better. The natural carbonation elevates the savory notes of the meat, the spiciness of the sauces and onions, the succulence of the tomato, and the fresh-baked aromas of the bun. Some people need glasses to see better … but everyone needs Budweiser to enjoy their burger better!” – George Reisch
