I surprised Derek with a day out with friends. We began at the Anheuser-Busch Brewery for a tour.
the tour begins
clydesdales and a bridge of pipes filled with beer.
the Clydesdale stables
beechwood aging
Augustus Busch, his empire, and a lesson on the making of Budwieser
the straining process and lots of photo opportunities
lots to see...we were getting thirsty...
the bottling/packaging line, not in motion today
almost there
the reward for our learnings.
And on to the Broadway Oyster Bar....
good friends
good tunes and low lighting (=blurry photos)
good oysters
good times.
I hope you enjoyed your day/gift, Derek. You deserve nights like these...filled with friends and fun! Cheers!
