One of the vendors in Soulard Market, ready to pour you some of the awful (IMHO) products of Anheuser Busch Inbev, while grilling hot dogs or sausages behind. Anheuser Busch used to own this town until it got sucked into the Belgian-Brazilian conglomerate Inbev. Budweiser was everywhere, even all over the world. The first advertising sign I saw in Tibet at a little airport restaurant was for Bud. The sign was in English, Tibetan and Chinese. The picture of the can said Anheuser Busch, St. Louis, Missouri.
I'm not fond of Budweiser. I'm sipping a Cotes du Rhone as I write this.
I've never gotten the appeal of beer, but then I've sampled everything from wine to whiskey and just don't care for the taste of alcohol in general.
ReplyDeleteI like your taste. Cotes du Rhone is much better!
ReplyDeleteI did enjoy my tour of the plant many years ago, especially the gorgeous horses.
