Yes, but only in a "poor", "crap", "rubbish" sense (as a rule, but we invented the language so we enjoy bending those rules occassionally).

Another yes, Budweiser is a fairly popular lager here, but we have lots of popular lagers (Carling, Stella, Kronenburg, Carlsburg...).
And for the record, it tastes better here. I kid you not, it is palatable. Why is it different? The Budweiser we get is brewed in the UK.
