"When it was founded in 1852 in St. Louis’s Soulard neighborhood, the Anheuser-Busch Brewery was revered for its access to the Mississippi River and natural caves that were used to keep beer cold prior to modern refrigeration. Today, it sprawls across 1,655,280 square feet of building space, set on a 142-acre site. Tours here range from free 45-minute experiences to food-pairing sessions and even make-your-own beer classes. There’s also an on-site beer garden for social sipping. Perhaps the best attraction, however, is the brewery’s Clydesdale horses—book the Horses & Heritage Tour for a behind-the-scenes look at their lives, plus the chance to pet and pose for pictures with the stunning creatures."

Had a great time doing the finished tour here on a rainy holiday weekend. Our tour guide was a great host. Got the chance to learn about the brewing process, see cool processing equipment and taste some freshly brewed beer. The place also has a restaurant with decent food and great tv to watch games. 10/10 experience, will definitely return.

From the time we walked in to the time we left everything was awesome! Upon arrival, the front desk explained all the tour options and helped us choose one. We chose the Day Fresh Tour and loved our tour and tour guide. It was fun and informative! At the end we ended in the cafe so we ate some lunch then shopped on the gift shop on the way out! Lots of fun. Can spend as little or as much time as you want ! Has free parking and is great for families, couples, groups, etc!

If you're visiting St. Louis, the Busch Brewery Tour is a must-do experience for beer lovers and history buffs alike. The tour is both fun and informative, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the brewing process and several of the historic buildings on the property. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, entertaining, and clearly passionate about the history and craft of brewing. One of the highlights was sampling some freshly brewed beer, and they even give you a can to take home as a souvenir. After the tour, we browsed the gift shop, which had a wide range of great merchandise and unique keepsakes. There’s also a beer garden where you can relax and enjoy a bite to eat with a cold drink in hand. Whether you're a fan of beer or just looking for a unique local experience, the Busch Brewery Tour is a great stop for tourists exploring St. Louis.

Pretty fun for the historical aspect. Lots of cool architectural stuff and artifacts. Some rooms were super hot and others super cold. I'm not a beer person, so I was given alcohol, but gave it to someone who wanted it

My tour guide was amazing! Didn’t catch her name so I’ll describe her so she gets her due credit, about 5’6, had a ponytail and gingered colored hair. Very friendly and informative. My gf and I will definitely going back! Such a beautiful tour, and a great place to hangout afterwards. Fair warning that fresh beer is strong! Lol

The Day Fresh Tour at the Anheuser-Busch Brewery was great, as you got to sample a few beers, but also learn about the history of this company and how it's been a part of this community for over a century. We also learned how they make the beer, how they provide mulch and bottled water to the community, and a little about the Clydesdales. One of the beers we had at the end of the tour was an Elysian Space Dust IPA. I don't normally care for IPAs but this thing was delicious. The fresh Budweiser we had during the tour was spot on as well. We had a great time at the brewery, and highly recommend a visit and a tour.

Outstanding Beermaster Tour at Budweiser St. Louis Brewery! I had an unforgettable experience on the Beermaster Tour at the Budweiser Brewery in St. Louis. The tour was incredibly comprehensive, giving a deep dive into the craftsmanship and precision that goes into brewing Budweiser. Our guide was knowledgeable and passionate, providing fascinating insights at each step of the process. One of the highlights was visiting the 36-degree finishing area, where we had the chance to taste freshly brewed beer right from the cold storage. The crisp, refreshing flavor of the beer in that pristine environment truly enhanced the tasting experience—it was unlike anything I've ever experienced in a brewery tour. Seeing how the beer is carefully conditioned at such precise temperatures really emphasized the quality and attention to detail. Additionally, seeing the iconic Clydesdales and learning about their history added a special touch to the visit. The tour was informative, fun, and gave a true appreciation for Budweiser’s legacy and brewing excellence. I highly recommend the Beermaster Tour to anyone visiting St. Louis—it's a must-do for beer enthusiasts and curious visitors alike. I can’t wait to go back for the other two tours!

Overall this was a great Christmas experience. The only concern was the fire pits almost went out and were smokey sometimes. The food, lights, people, food, drink, parade, were excellent! Parking and entering were easy as well. We look forward to this Christmas Event next year! Thank you for a wonderful Christmas experience.

Very cool experience. We did the day fresh tour, which I would describe as an overall tour of the brewery with a tasting, a free day fresh can of beer, and a free draft beer at the end. It was interesting to learn all about how they make the beer, and also see the Clydesdales! The brewery feels like a college campus... it's big! One thing I was frustrated about was that we had to walk up seven flights of stairs since the escalators were broken. We could've taken the elevator but it only would've fit a small group. I also think our tour guide could've been a bit more enthusiastic. If you're ever in St Louis, this is a cool experience!

If you're looking for something festive for the season this is where it's at. $12 for adults and they hand you a beer as you walk in. This place has everything. You can tour the brew house, get a pic with a clydesdale, watch the parade, hang out in the beer garden and watch the game on a huge screen, enjoy food trucks and bars, make smores, or simply enjoy the lights and show. Happens every year and it's a must do of you are in town during the season.

I've been meaning to take this tour for ages since a while back I worked as a on premise salesman for the hawaii distribution office when it was still owned by the busch family. Finisher Tour at the St. Louis Brewery Mark was our tour guide and was very knowledgeable and we had a great time

I'm not much of a beer drinker, but I do love animals. So I was all about the Clydesdale VIP tour and getting the opportunity to see them up close and personal. They are every bit as majestic as I'd expect them to be. Bonus-we got a peak at one of the Dalmatians, Mike, who was lounging in his kennel. The tour is an hour long and takes you to the stables and the storage room for the horses' garb along with the outside area where you get to pet a horse. Each of their harness outfits is over $100K and custom made. Impressive! The tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. During the tour, we had the opportunity to have two different beers-one in a can and one on tap. I enjoyed the mango cart, which was a fruity beer that didn't taste too much like....beer. Guests of all ages were allowed on this tour, only those over 21 got to drink, of course. If you have children that like animals, this could be a fun outing for them.

First, let me say that the biergarten is a fantastic space. Plenty of seating, covered by a tent like structure, large screen TVs, family games, beers on tap, and bar food. The people working here are awesome. Super friendly getting our drinks and food. Our server even offered to rinse the tasting glasses from our brewery tour. Now the bad part - the food. It appears that the only cooking device they have available is a deep fryer. The pretzel sticks appetizer and my brat were deep fried - as you can see in the photos. I despise shriveled, fried, brats. And who fries pretzel sticks? It's really a shame because everything else about the Anheuser-Busch brewery experience is 5 stars. From the tour, I learned they spent $200 million to upgrade everything. They definitely need to throw some extra money at upgrading the food experience.

Great experience! What? Did the beermeister tour - it was very well planned out and thorough! It starts with beer and ends with beer. Ofcourse as you go through the stages you also get to experience the various stages of the beer. Even if you aren't a beer person, it's a great tour to do if you have nothing to do. Environment Located in st.louis. It is a big space with tonne of parking available. Niceness of the staff Very nice staff! One of the team we signed up for didn't show up but they gave us the safety hat (souvenir hat) and a pint glass anyways Dollar Decent dollar for a full day event Yes? I would recommend yes

I've been in St. Louis three times, and somehow, this is only my second time touring the Budweiser brewery. I have to say . . . . one of my favorite beer/wine/spirits tours. Both times, I've done the $15 Day Fresh tour (which is a fantastic option). This time, I was hoping to do a different tour, but since this was a spur of the moment side trip after several days in bourbon country, I booked last minute and it was the only one still available. That being said, what a great tour. The history of the brewery and campus is amazing. The tour covers a little bit of everything. A history lesson, beer, amazing architecture, beer, clydesdales, bottling . . . . And don't forget about the beer.

Being a St. Louis native, I have done the brewery tour several times throughout my life but this is the first time I've brought my family and out of town friends. Our guide was so fun and informative and we all enjoyed it. They have it down to a science so everything ran very smoothly and efficiently and we weren't waiting in lines or anything. Would go back for sure.

Our guide, Larry, did a fantastic job on the tour. His knowledge and passion for all things Anheuser-Busch was a trip. And seeing how AB has evolved through the years, as well as watching how the filtering/bottling process of beers (Stella) happens was an enlightening experience. Plus seeing the Budweiser Clydesdales was such a pleasant surprise! We might book the VIP tour next time. A definite 12 out of 10 rating!

I know Budweiser has come under scrutiny lately for their actions but I am writing this as just my unbiased opinion getting to tour the beer factory in the heart of St. Louis, Missouri. This was my 2nd official visit to the plant. I originally planned on just taking some quick updated photos from outside the entrance area, but when it was posted that a Basic Tour or formally known as the Day Fresh Tour was just $15...lol, I had to come back and enjoy another experience. When I say Basic Tour, that's the minimum type of tour offered. There were 3 more in-depth and detailed/personalized experiences for the avid beer enthusiast, but I was okay with walking around as the casual visitor with no worries about what extras were included. Well, getting a little tasting moment would be fun, and yes...I received that with the Day Fresh Tour. You're given 2 instances for beer tasting. During the middle of the tour, you're offered a plastic cup of either Budweiser or Bud Light. And as the tour finishes, you receive a 2nd, bigger cup of beer with much more selections of Budweiser products on tap. Then you can take your beer into the Beer Garden section for some relaxed drinking, socializing and hanging out. But back to this Day Fresh Tour, for $15, it's about 75 minutes long and guides you through the famous Clydesdales Horse Stables and inside the factories where beers are processed, fermented and bottled. Plus, along the way the guide provides details and talks about everything that is Budweiser. My guide was knowledgeable and friendly that I had to tip him $5 at the end. In fact, the gentleman happily volunteered to take family photos to anyone who asked him along the way. I appreciated that. The 75 minutes went by efficiently and with a brief break for enjoying some beer, I was happy overall with the tour and content that I returned regardless of it not being my first time here. Also, I'd like to mention just exploring the grounds of the Budweiser plants was sort of nostalgic in that it transported me back to a simple time when appreciating a classic beer without stresses was (and still is, I think) part of the American way of life. The factories and buildings all had that recognizable red/brick coloring to them and were a photogenic reminder for being in the "Gateway to the West" - St. Louis, Missouri. Some last extras... - The Gift Shop was extensive and offered everything catering to Budweiser. - The Beer Garden is a great social hangout and offers a full menu of options like burgers, chicken, salads and your All-American type flair. I noticed some of my tour friends eating BBQ pulled pork sandwiches and they looked delicious. - The front entrance area right beside the Ticket Counter is good for a picture moment. There's a big sign stating..."Welcome to the Home of Budweiser". Other tours offered on the grounds were... - Finisher Tour = $20 - Clydesdale VIP = $30 - BeerMaster Tour = $40 Overall, if you're visiting St. Louis, MO, you must come here to Budweiser and take a tour. It's part of the package for enjoying a terrific city in the middle of the USA.

This was an awesome experience. The architecture of the buildings was beautiful and the history of the company interesting. We took the Brewmaster tour and enjoyed our tour guides knowledge and clear communication. I would recommend making this a stop while in St Lois.

Spend an hour learning about the Clydesdales on the VIP tour. So interesting to learn about Anhauser-Busch Clydesdales from our VIP tour guide, Dave. In 1933, the Busch brothers presented their dad with a six-hitch Clydesdale team of horses to commemorate the repeal of prohibition. The horse drawn wagon was so popular that a second team was sent to NYC to mark the occasion and market the beer. The team was met with huge crowds. A case of beer was to former New York governor Alfred Smith. The tour continued and in Washington, DC, a case of Budweiser was given to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Eventually the team expanded to eight horses and a Dalmatian was added as well. Today, the Clydesdales continue the tradition. Each Clydesdale is chosen to match the specifications set and is trained by a dedicated handler. It was nice to meet Olaf who is trained by Jenna. Olaf was so sweet and patient as Jenna explained his daily grooming and feeding routine. Clydesdales originally came from Scotland. The Budweiser Clydesdales have four white legs. Apparently, Olaf is a master at getting one of his front legs dirty and needs extra grooming to keep his legs white. The stable is the original circular stable built by the family in 1885. The stable had running water and electricity at a time when most homes did not have those luxuries. The stable was finished with Tiffany glass and a chandelier that came from the St. Louis World's Fair. Busch was in charge of the International vendors at the World's Fair. Great tour. Samples included. Military and first responder discounts are available.

The Day Fresh Tour was sold out so we opted for the Clydesdale VIP tour and it did not disappoint! The campus here is beautiful and everyone we interacted with was extremely friendly. Our tour guide was Christine and she did an absolutely wonderful job. She was kind, funny, knowledgeable, and gave us a personalized experience during the 45 minutes that we were with her. Seeing the Clydesdales up close and personal is an experience that we will not forgot. The two free beers on the tour are a nice touch too. Would for sure recommend this experience, even if you're not interested in beer.

Someone's got their lines crossed as checking in on yelp provides a coupon for the gift shop that doesn't work. This soured an otherwise good experience. Yelp and Bud, figure it out! I did the Clydesdale VIP Tour and loved it. The tour guide was fun, we got to ask lots of questions and it was magical meeting a real Budweiser Clydesdale in person. We were offered a beer during our tour and I love that they had Bud-Zero available since I don't drink alcohol. After the tour, we could have another beverage including soft drinks. My spouse did a second tour and I hung out in the beer garden and had a snack. There was a runner checking in on things a bunch, but my food still took forever and then my fries were just okay. Maybe they were beer battered? The fries are served with beer-cheese sauce which I didn't love (better for pretzels, which they also have on offer) and ketchup and the runner refilled my ketchup. As a non-beer drinker, this was just okay for me, but Budweiser is such a part of our culture and has such a history that I would have rated more highly if not for ending my visit at the gift store on a bad note. It wasn't so much the money (my savings would have been about $2), but I don't feel the staff handled it well and I was embarrassed.

Loved doing the regular brewery tour. It was cheap for a 90mins tour. Originally we were just going to hang out in the beer garden but the beer garden is lame, do a tour. The buildings are historic and have great architecture. We got to see the clydesdales and dalmations. And a free beer at the end of the tour, a sample during and a bottle to take home!

Wow! Unexpected experience for sure! Granted, we came in with lower expectations. Hour and a half or so tour and we learned so much. Impressive scientific processes and facility, and we got to see the Clydesdales which was a fantastic experience alone. Free tastings and they even gave us a day old beer for the road. Beautiful, thorough, eventful, and fun. The Biergarten and food were also excellent.

If you're a beer drinker, a patriot and a history buff RUN to Budweiser for a Beermaster tour. Our guide Mark is a retired history and he taught us so much about the history of STL and the A&B dynasty. It was pure joy for us to be on a tour with someone who LOVES his job. We also had never heard that Busch said he was in the business of making friends but it rings true across his employees!!

When in St. Louis, add this to your to do list! What a fantastic 90 minute tour learning the history of this longtime brewing company & headquarters. The campus was huge! The building and architecture is so very beautiful and so grand! I think about those who had to put so much blood and sweat to build it. The guides on Saturday 07/22 were so phenomenal and so very informative. We saw the horses up close and the Dalmatians as well. You get to see the production line and all operations. Free beer is provided multiple times so why not!? Parking was on site and free. Large bags are not permitted. Friendly staff.

The tour we did here was called the "Day Fresh Tour." This tour is suitable for families with children. You have to wear closed-toe shoes to enter this place. The first thing I noticed was... The place was very nicely organized, like a college campus. You will see the beer-making process. Another thing to note is that you will be going back and forth between hot and cold buildings. You'll go to cold areas, so prepare warm clothes. Here's a tip: At the end of the tour, there is a place you can try some of their products. If you are over 21 and don't want to drink alcoholic beer, you can try a non-alcoholic drink. Just make sure you have your ID card ready.

Dad and I had an amazing time touring the compound yesterday afternoon. It was exciting to find the things that they do differently than other companies and to learn the history of the corporation. Laura was a fabulous tour guide. She was knowledgeable and able to answer majority of the questions from our group. Overall a wonderful experience and I'd love to do it again in the winter when the lights are on. (:

My family took the VIP Clydesdale tour and we'd recommended it. The VIP experience allows you to get up close and personal with a very cute (and BIG) clydesdale. Once you are with the Clydesdales you get to pet and take pictures with him. On the tour you also get to look at the impressive Clydesdale tack room... and get a complementary beer! At the end of the tour you get an another complimentary beer of your choice. All in all, we recommend the Clydesdale VIP experience. It was great and a fun way to spend the afternoon!

Bud is probably one beer that I would be happy never having again in my life, but when you're used to going to craft breweries there's something very fun about touring such a massive facility. Even if you don't care for the beer, you can't deny the impact that Budweiser has had on the beer industry and American culture overall. The tour is free, which is great, and they have a nice museum inside that gives a history of the brewery. You also get to see some old advertising, which is always enjoyable as well. The tour is fascinating as you get to see just how enormous the tanks are that house the beer and this is truly manufacturing at an industrial scale. A free tasting is also provided and it's a fun time overall, even if you aren't into the beer. I definitely recommend it if you're in the area.

You can not come to St. Louis and not come to the iconic Anheuser-Busch Brewery. I wouldn't say I am the biggest Bud anything drinker, but I had to see one of the oldest and well known breweries in the US of A. I knew coming to the city that I wanted to check it out, but I didn't know exactly when I could fit it in. I was lucky enough to book it pretty last minute and get the tour we wanted. Getting here was easy and parking is marked really well. This place is a city in itself sitting on hundreds of acres with hundreds of buildings. If you can follow a sign, you can find where you need to be. We arrived right on time and was told where my group would be leaving from. We were headed to the Cardinals vs Astros game right after and the staff and fellow tour takers absolutely made us Astros fans feel welcome even though we were in enemy territory decked out in our Astros gear. We wanted to learn about Budweiser and see the grounds, but we also did not want to commit a chunk of our day doing that. We did the Finisher Tour which was a quick 1 hour tour that took us to important spots in a short period of time. This also included a hat, a pint glass and tastings as well. Our tour guide was so awesome and friendly. The tour moves quick and I underestimated how much walking we would actually do. Wear comfortable shoes! We visited different areas and got a run down on the brewing process. One of the massive buildings we went in housed massive tanks of freshly brewed beer. The room was freezing cold which was a nice escape from the heat outside. At this point, they provided us with our keepsake pint glasses. We moved in front of one of the large tanks and we were able to pour our own pints straight from the source. The ice cold, fresh beer was absolutely delicious. It kept flowing and we were able to get as much as we could drink in the time we were there. We then made our way to the Biergarten where they had 10-15 beers on tap. One of the beers is one of my favorites from my time living in Minnesota. There was some other hard to find beers as well. We were able to try quite a few full pours here as well. For the 20 dollar price tag of the tour, we felt we got more than our money's worth considering the swag as well as a good buzz we got while visiting. I would do this tour again in a heartbeat, but one of the more in depth tours.

An amazing experience that everyone should try, you get an in-depth look at the beer making process, as well as an history lesson that dives into the buildings that make up the Anheuser Busch property. Getting free beer at the end is also a huge plus

Great experience at the Anheuser Busch Budweiser Brewery in St. Louis! Maddie and Abby were our tour guides and they were awesome - promote these lovely young ladies! =) Very knowledgeable about the company and its history. From someone who loves investing and learning about history, especially the United States, this is one you have to experience. And the place does that, from its millions of brick-and-mortar facilities (literally), to some added bougie bar and stores. I am truly grateful for the experience! =) Kudos Bud...wink!

We arrived at the brewery for the 2pm finisher tour that we made reservations for. We read that you have to wear closed toe shoes and they do ask when you arrive if you have boots or tennis shoes on. It also specified no crocs. Also there is a no backpack rule. To be safe I didn't bring my mini backpack which is more like a purse, and I'm glad I didn't because I saw someone else get told that she had to go put her mini backpack in her car or in a locker. We checked in and they told us that they would make an announcement when we were ready to start the tour and she told us where we would be meeting. We had to have a hair covering during the tour so they gave us have these cute Budweiser ball caps. They also made us wear safety glasses but collected those at the end. The area where we got the fresh beer was 34 degrees. It was so cool, the tour guide hooked this springing spout thing to the tank and we were able to go up to it and get fresh beer. The more you drink there, the more refills you get!!!!!We also got a very nice commemorative glass. We saw them in the gift shop and they sell for $10 a glass. At the end of the tour we also got another beer sample of our choice at the BierGarden. Afterwards we went to the gift shop and we were carrying the glasses we got from the tour and the people in the gift shop were so nice and wrapped our glasses for us and gave us a bag to carry them. Everything shut down at 4:30 because they were getting ready for the Holiday lights. We also had bought tickets for the lights so we walked down to a restaurant in Soulard and came back. When we bought our ticket we got it for 6pm but we were there early and it was no problem. They let us in and we got a beverage included in the ticket price. We also pre paid for a photo. We were confused about this because they gave us a photo pass but we had no idea where to get our photo taken. On the maps that are located around the brewery, there were several places that had a camera image on them which indicates that it was a photo opportunity. We walked to all of them and the only one we saw with a photographer was by the Clydesdales. We Asked them where we go to pick up the photo and then from there they told us this year there is only one photo place. They had a parade at 7:30 and a small show with dancers at 6:30 and 8:30. I thought both were very cute. They have s'mores kits you can buy and fire pits around to roast the marshmallows. They have a limited food selection during the holiday lights. They had toasted raviolis, pretzels with cheese and a pulled pork sandwich. Outside they had roasted nuts, the s'mores and a couple of other small options. They have a kids area called winter wonderland. They also have Christmas music playing all around. They have 2 large Christmas trees at each end of the holiday display. The trees displayed all kinds of different light patterns, including stl cardinals, stl blues and the city logos. Overall I thought it was a great time!

Went a bit early to have lunch before the tour. I expected a fast food style meal but what I received was a very good burger, great fries, and served by great folks who made you feel very welcome. Then, we get to the tour. Tom was friendly, knowledgeable and very deep in the AB history. Highly suggested for anyone in the area, or, visitors coming through STL

Had two tours the day fresh was fun tour guid Patrick was so fun and informative. he was willing to answer questions on the side while others were still taking pics. Would defiantly recommend if you're going to see if you can get in his tour group. Only down side was the size which is the reason for the 4 outta 5 was just too many people on each tour. We had 50 people, and it was just way too many TBH. They should try to cut it in half for sure. We also did the Clydesdale tour (can't remember our tour guide name, she was a retired principal) which was also really fun, the horses are so beautiful!!! Learning some of the history and seeing them up close is something I would highly recommend, tour size was small which was nice just a little short. Next time defiantly doing the farm tour.
