But it is certainly the most famous, an iconic American brand backed by one of the largest advertising budgets on earth. Nearly half of all American beer is brewed by A-B.

Clearly, they weren't expecting a rough crowd, but honor was certainly on the line. "If we lose tonight I can't go the office for four weeks," said Steven Riederer, 31, an American-born German living in Vienna. By game time, downtown Vienna had turned into one gigantic, smoky, outdoor beer hall, and, an hour later, a pissoir of equal...
