We recommend a definite stop at the Anheiser Busch Factory in St Louis. Since it is only 38 minutes from Scott AFB, it is worth the drive. They offer complimentary samples of Busch products (for people over the age of 21). They will show you how they brew the beer and package it. They show you the heritage and other background information on the development of beer. Anheuser Busch Factory Tour Information.
