(KMDL-FM) Budweiser Beer, the King of Beers, the Proud to be your Bud Beer, is once again showing us, the people of these United States of America, that they are proud to serve us a nice, cold, refreshing glass of beer. And the only thing better than cold beer is free beer. Budweiser and its parent company, Anheuser-Busch, want to pick up the tab on a cold one to celebrate America's birthday.

It's a really simple process if you have access to the internet and are over 21 years of age. All you'll need to do is visit the company's website, confirm your age, because drinking responsibly is what real Americans are all about, and fill out a form that lets the folks at Budweiser know you're thirsty.

How Do I Pour the Beer Out of My Computer or Phone?

Okay, beer won't magically start squirting out of your smartphone or computer once you're online and at the proper site. But metaphorically it kind of will. Because when you fill out the form, including your age verification, you will be sent a $6 digital gift card that you may use to purchase a Budweiser draft beer.

This is one of the ways that Budweiser is celebrating America and our nation's 250th Birthday. For the past 150 years, Budweiser and Anheuser-Busch products have been a part of our picnics, fireworks, concerts, and parades that make up the fabric of American life.

Here in my town, Lafayette, Louisiana, Schilling Distributing has been bringing Budweiser to the people of Acadiana. The Schilling Family was awarded exclusive rights to bring the popular products to South Louisiana by August Busch Jr on January 1, 1950.

Since that time, Schilling and Budweiser have been a part of just about every major, minor, downtown, out-in-the-sticks celebration that South Louisiana has ever thrown.

The company has made countless donations of products, swag, and services in support of our community in those 76 years, and I count the staff, management, drivers, loaders, and warehouse guys and gals as some of the most loyal friends our radio station has ever had.
