I decided to do something a little different today and take the Budweiser Brewery Tour in St Louis. Sure I had taken the tour about 8 years ago, but I wanted to see what was different, had any changes been made since IN-BEV bought Anheuser-Busch last year.

There had been rumblings that the highly regarded tour might be scaled back or eliminated altogether. Some people even believe that IN-BEV will secretly sell off Busch Gardens and Grants Farm.

Grants Farm is certainly a no-no to the folks in this area. Primarily because it is where the world famous Clydesdales are kept. The 12 foot tall horses with white hairy hooves are a family favorite. On my recent tour there were a few of them in stables, and a couple out on the grounds getting some air.

But, here are a few shots of my tour. If you would like to see more photos, check out my facebook page here.

Hi this is Eve from plurk...just stopping by to say Hi :-). Looks like you enjoyed your trip. I sure hope they don't sell Busch Gardens, I still have not had the chance to visit a park yet. Although Sea World is owed by them, it doesn't satisfy my desire to go to to their park in VA.

Hey Eve! Yes I did enjoy my trip. It looks like they have changed the hours on Grants Farm, where the Clydesdales are kept. So sad. Thanks for dropping by!
