I have to be in St Louis Monday morning and was thinking of making a weekend of it. I looked through this thread for awhile and didn't see anything for the city. I have some ideas of breweries (Perennial) and bottle shops (Wine and Cheese, Lucas Liquor). Any smaller breweries I should hit up (already been to Schlafly)? I like big IPAs, stouts, belgians, and barleywines the most.
http://stlhops.com/st-louis-beer-guide/ Four Hands may fit your favorites the best. There are plenty of breweries and beer bars to hit if you want to make a weekend of it. Touring the AB brewing is worthwhile. It's a beautiful, historic brewery.
Agreed, the AB tour is awesome! Just the scale of their operation is great! I'd second Four Hands, fun small place.
