Area Attractions, St. Louis, Missouri (September, 2009)

 
Other than the arch and the Cardinals, the Anheuser-Busch brewery is quintessential St. Louis!  Those three things really define the city.  The steel and concrete of the arch has proven to withstand the elements, the Cards have a huge fan base and a great ownership group so they are going to stay put for the foreseeable future.  However, the brewery might be in danger.  Since 1852 they've been cranking out Budweiser products here (minus some "change in product" during Prohibition), but all that seems to be slowly dwindling since the InBev buyout.

That being the case we wanted to make sure that we took the free tour on this trip before they stop doing it!  As you can see the buildings on the tour are very historic and impressive!
