The tour rocks. And it's free. And you get free samples of day old beer at the end of it.
I don't really care what InBev wants to call itself over here....i like bud, always have, will always drink it.....beer is about taste. Nothing else. What would concern me would be if InBev were to change AB's relationship with the city of St. Louis. You don't have to be there more than 5 minutes before you see the impact that AB has on St. Louis. They sponsor just about everything. If it's a charity in St. Louis, you can almost guarantee that it's #1 contributor is AB. The relationship between that company and that city is interwoven beyond repair. So far...so good...from my sources in St. Louis. But I shudder to think what would happen if that were to change.
