“The Budweiser Brewmaster Experience” brings the brewery experience the Taste of Galesburg.
It explains Budweiser’s eight-stage brewing process, including fermentation and beechwood aging. Stepping inside the trailer that houses the exhibit, visitors can smell and feel ingredients that are used to produce Budweiser, including hops and rice. They’re also able to view miniature brewing tanks to show the steps in making beer.
