No More Free Beer At Busch Gardens

Article in the St. Pete Times. For those who were wondering whether InBev's stated goal of reigning in the corporate excess of Anheuser-Busch would impact consumers, it begins. Busch Gardens will stop offering free beer samples at their hospitality areas starting the 25th. (You've got 10 more days Florida! And, Virginia too I guess.) Apparently they are also revamping the parks' various restaurants, and there is some question whether (and which) InBev brands will be in, though they will probably put Stella Artois in at the very least. InBev has also mentioned that it is considering selling the parks, so perhaps this is step on in making them more family-friendly for a future non-brewery owner?
