Story

The engrossing, often scandalous saga of one of the wealthiest, longest-lasting, and most colorful family dynasties in the history of American commerce—a cautionary tale about prosperity, profligacy, hubris, and the blessings and dark consequences of success. This engrossing, vivid narrative captures the Busch saga through five generations. At the same time, it weaves a broader story of American progress and decline over the past 150 years. It's a cautionary tale of prosperity, hubris, and loss.
What made the experience of listening to Bitter Brew the most enjoyable?
Learning more about the history of AB and the each generation.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
The thing that drove me crazy was the mispronunciation of St. Louis locales.
