PROSPECTUS

Anheuser-Busch InBev Worldwide Inc.
Offer to Exchange up to
$1,735,171,000 principal amount of 4.439% Notes due 2048
which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933
For Any and All Outstanding Unregistered
$1,735,171,000 principal amount of 4.439% Notes due 2048
Expiration Date: 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on 17 August 2017, unless extended
We are conducting this exchange offer (the "Exchange Offer") in order to provide you with an opportunity to exchange your
unregistered notes for notes that have been registered under the Securities Act.
The Exchange Offer

·
We will exchange all outstanding old notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn for an equal principal amount of new

notes that are registered under the Securities Act.

·
You may withdraw tenders of Old Notes at any time prior to the expiration date of the exchange offer.

·
The exchange offer for Old Notes is expected to settle on 21 August 2017, unless extended (such date, the "Settlement Date").
The terms of the new notes to be issued in the exchange offer are identical in all material respects to the old notes, except that the new notes
will be registered under the Securities Act and will not be subject to transfer restrictions or registration rights. The new notes will have the same
financial terms and covenants as the old notes, and are subject to the same business and financial risks.
All untendered old notes will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in the old notes and in the indenture. In general,
the old notes may not be offered or sold, unless registered under the Securities Act, except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not
subject to, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Other than in connection with the exchange offer, we do not currently anticipate
that we will register the old notes under the Securities Act.
Each broker-dealer that receives new notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a
prospectus in connection with any resale of such new notes. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a
prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. This prospectus, as it
may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of new notes received in exchange
for the old notes where such old notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. We
have agreed that, for a period of 90 days commencing on the day the Exchange Offer is consummated (or such shorter period during which
participating broker-dealers are required by law to deliver such prospectus) we will make available a prospectus meeting the requirements of the
Securities Act for use by broker-dealers in connection with any such resale.

424B3
The Exchange Offer will only be made, and the new notes are only being offered to, holders of old notes which are located or resident in any
Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented Directive 2003/71/EC, as amended (the "Prospectus Directive") which are
"qualified investors" as defined in the Prospectus Directive.
For a more detailed description of the new notes, see "Description of the New Notes and Guarantees" beginning on page 30.
See "Risk Factors" beginning on page 11 for a discussion of certain risks you should consider before participating in the exchange offer.
Additionally, see the "Risk Factors" in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2016, which are
incorporated by reference herein, to read about factors you should consider before investing in the New Notes.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities
or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
The date of this prospectus is 19 July 2017.

The Exchange Offer

Offeror
Anheuser-Busch InBev Worldwide Inc. (the "Issuer")
General
In April 2017, the Issuer issued $1,735,171,000 principal amount of 4.439% notes due
2048 (the "Old Notes") under the indenture, dated as of 16 December 2016, among the
Issuer, each of the Guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.,
as trustee, principal paying agent, transfer agent and registrar. On 6 April 2017,
Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV, Anheuser-Busch InBev Worldwide Inc. and certain
subsidiary guarantors entered into a registration rights agreement, which we refer to as
the "Registration Rights Agreement", with the initial purchasers of the Old Notes, for
the benefit of the holders of the Old Notes, under which we are required to use
commercially reasonable efforts to complete an offer to exchange the Old Notes for a
new series of notes identical in all material respect and registered under the Securities Act
of 1933 or have one or more shelf registration statements in respect of the Old Notes
declared effective, prior to 7 March 2018. We are making the Exchange Offer (as defined
below) to satisfy our obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement.
The Exchange Offer
We are offering $1,735,171,000 principal amount of 4.439% Notes due 2048 which have
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), for any

2017 and 20 April 2017.
We refer to the above offer as the "Exchange Offer". Additionally, we refer to the series
of notes described above that are being offered in exchange for the Old Notes pursuant to
the Exchange Offer as the "New Notes". In this prospectus we sometimes refer to the
New Notes and the Old Notes together as the "notes".

on the corresponding New Notes and not on the Old Notes. Any Old Notes not tendered
will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest according to their terms.

Resale of New Notes
Based on interpretive letters of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or "SEC", staff
to third parties, we believe that you may offer for resale, resell and otherwise transfer

· are not a broker-dealer that acquired the Old Notes from us or in market-
making transactions or other trading activities;

· acquire the New Notes issued in the Exchange Offer in the ordinary course of

By tendering Old Notes as described in "The Exchange Offer--Procedures for Tendering
Old Notes", you will be making written representations to this effect. If you fail to satisfy
any of these conditions, you cannot rely on the position of the SEC set forth in the
interpretive letters referred to above and you must comply with the registration and
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a resale of the
New Notes.

If you are a broker-dealer that acquired Old Notes as a result of market-making or other
trading activities, you must comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act in connection with a resale of the New Notes as described in this summary
under "Restrictions on Sale by Broker-Dealers" below.

We base our belief on interpretations by the SEC staff in interpretive letters issued to
other issuers in exchange offers like ours. We cannot guarantee that the SEC would make
a similar decision about our Exchange Offer. If our belief is wrong, you could incur
liability under the Securities Act. We will not protect you against any loss incurred as a
result of this liability under the Securities Act.

We have not entered into any arrangement or understanding with any person who will
receive New Notes in the Exchange Offer to distribute those New Notes following
completion of the Exchange Offer. We are not aware of any person that will participate
in the Exchange Offer with a view to distribute the New Notes.

Restrictions on Sale by Broker-Dealers
If you are a broker-dealer that has received New Notes for your own account in
exchange for Old Notes that were acquired as a result of market-making or other trading
activities, you must acknowledge that you will deliver a prospectus meeting the
requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of New Notes. For a
period of 90 days commencing on the day the Exchange Offer is consummated (or such
shorter period during which participating broker-dealers are required by law to deliver
such prospectus) we will make available a prospectus meeting the requirements of the
Securities Act for use by broker-dealers in connection with any such resale.
Consequences of Not Exchanging Old Notes for
New Notes
If you are eligible to participate in the Exchange Offer and you do not tender your Old
Notes, you will not have any further registration or exchange rights and your Old Notes
will continue to be subject to transfer restrictions. These transfer restrictions and the
availability of New Notes could adversely affect the trading market for your Old Notes.
The Old Notes and the New Notes will not be fungible. To the extent that Old Notes are
tendered and accepted in the Exchange Offer, the trading market for any remaining Old
Notes may (and likely will) be adversely affected. See "Risk Factors--Risks Relating to
the Exchange Offer".
Use of Proceeds
We will not receive any cash proceeds from the Exchange Offer.
