    Beer, Clydesdales, and the delicious, delicious smells of the beer-making process. Could there be a more fun tourist activity? Certainly not for free!

    Even if you know how beer is made - hell, even if you make your own beer - it's fun to walk through the brewery and learn how the folks at A-B do it. And if you're just not that patient (or just a bit short on time), do the quickie tour: visit the horsies and enjoy your two free beers.

    I sincerely hope that nothing changes too drastically as a result of the InBev acquisition. This tour is totally my go-to tourist activity when out-of-town friends and family come to St. Louis....I mean, am I supposed to take people to the arch or something?

    I'm a St. Louis native, and AB has been in my backyard my whole life, and I am embarrassed to say that I never took the tour before.

    I am not a beer connoisseur, but drink enough of the stuff to be interested in the process. So a friend and I went to the brewery, and checked out the entire process.

    The tour took you as close to the actual brewery as possible. Only a glass window separates you from endless gallons of the sweet nectars made by AB. The tour basically takes you through the entire plant, and the tour guide explains what is happening at each step.

    The best part is 2 free beers, right out of the brewery. Probably the best beer I have ever had. So fresh, light, cold, and good.

    Why is everything so cheap (or free!) in this town? I don't know, but I like it. I was fully expecting the A-B tour to cost $15-20, but a friend told me it was totally free so I was even more excited to check it out on my first full weekend living in St. Louis.

    You get to see some of the Clydesdales, go along the beechwood aging room, the fermentation room and the bottling plant. I may have missed something, but I forget. They teach you about the brewing process and what makes them so different from other beer companies in the U.S. Then, you get two free beers at the end. Can't beat that when the entire tour is free.

    There is a full tour, which takes about an hour, and then a 15 minute tour where you just go see the Clydesdales and then go back for your free beer.

    Remember Laverne & Shirley, the girls who worked in the brewery?  Well you won't see them here, but you can take a tour of the facilities for free.  You can see the building that was in the commercial.  I got 2 free beers at the end of the tour, but it was a few years ago, so there's no guarantee they're still doing that.

    Fun tour. Moves along quick and free beer at the end.  During the summer the mashing room can be 120 degrees and the fermentation room is 50 degrees, so be prepared for dramatic temp swings.
