German immigrants brought traditional pilsner brewing styles to America when they emigrated in the mid-19th century. Anheuser-Busch was one of the breweries that started with German immigrants and German brewing styles. American pilsners today are still closer to the German style, but the grist contains up to 25% corn and/or rice, which means that they cannot be marketed as a pilsner in Europe.
