Scott and Joey Kanz go to St. Louis |
The Budweiser tour was a little too pretty, kind of like a fake Hollywood set. It didn't look like they really brewed beer here. For you movie lovers is was like Jurassic Park compared to Site B. It was just too showy. |
Joey Kanz was visibly upset. Why you ask? It's because Joey Kanz was a good 6 months away from turning 21 and couldn't sample any of the horrific beers. I told him that he wasn't missing out on anything, but he was still sad. I promised to buy him some Miller Lite for tailgating before the game, and he perked right up. |
I refuse to drink Budweiser, Bud Light or Bud Select, so I tried some Michelob. It was just ok, as you can tell by my facial expression and overall demeanor. I wish that we had the option of drinking a good beer, but unfortunately Budweiser doesn't make good beer. My 2nd sample was Rolling Rock It was purchased by Anheuser-Busch in 2006, but I still don't considered it a Budweiser product. |
We rolled into town at about 9:00 am, drove past Busch Stadium and headed up the freeway to the Anheuser-Busch brewery. Although we proudly support Miller Beer and everything Milwaukee/Wisconsin, we wanted to see how the less fortunate enjoy their beer. We signed up for a 9:30 am tour, which I thought was pretty cool because you would think that 9:30 am would be too early to promote drinking. We started at the tour center HQ, and immediately stood out because we were purposefully wearing Miller Beer paraphernalia. After making some jokes about Budweiser's inferiority, they led us to the Clydesdales' stable house. While there, I found out that they employ gay horses (like Bruce) to haul their beer around. I was also embarrassed to share the name Scott with another of these meaningless horses. Now that trucks have been invented, these horses are nothing but show, and sit here in horse jail and live out their useless existences. |
I was surprised to see a glass bottle of Busch Light. I thought that it only came in cans in 30-packs. Bottles seem a little more classy than cans, and Busch Light is anything but classy. This display only made me dislike Budweiser more than ever, and made me upset. |
To this day, I still don't understand what this sign is trying to warn us about. I've looked at it for about 8 months now, and it still perplexes me. Just what in the hell is going on here? What a messed up place this is. |
Another comparison is Disney World or Universal Studios. They make the park look real, but in actuality, it's all just an illusion. That is why I feel Budweiser beer is inferior to Miller Beer. I will proudly drink a working man's beer like High Life, and have no problem being a member of middle class society. I like living the High Life. |
