Publisher's Synopsis
An American dynasty rose to power among foaming waves of ambition and hops, altering the course of brewing history. The Anheuser-Busch family's history is an epic of creativity, grit, and the never-ending quest for the ideal pour.
The Anheuser-Busch family built one of the world's largest and most successful breweries. Eberhard Anheuser started the dynasty, and his daughter's marriage to Adolphus Busch made it much more widespread. Adolphus's unyielding dedication to quality, however, is what made Anheuser-Busch famous. In the face of fierce rivalry, he brought Budweiser to the world and made the name of a beer hop around the tongues of millions. More than just malt and hops, the formula reflected his commitment to the brewing process. Progress was made as time went on. The Anheuser-Busch legacy is a celebration of innovation and the future. The dynasty grew more powerful with each new development, eventually uniting people all over the world over drinks and yarns. But the dynasty was about more than just beer and supply chains. The Anheuser-Busch family have experienced personal difficulties with their notable achievements, resulting in a mixture of triumphs and tragedies over their generations. Adolphus' descendants continued his tradition of generosity and civic involvement. Their conservation efforts mirrored his own, proving that the quest for perfection was not limited to the confines of the brewery.
