As official sponsor of the FIFA World Cup, Budweiser will be promoting the world’s premier sporting event with a series of exclusive promotions leading to the World Cup finals in June.

For its first promotion, Budweiser is offering customers an exclusive FIFA World Cup™ glass with every purchase of two Budweiser six-packs already available from leading supermarkets and bottle shops.

The new Budweiser bottles have been packaged with the official distinctive FIFA World Cup branding.
