While St Louis may not be the first “Beer City” you think of, the history of beer in St Louis is one that goes back to the very beginning. Before Prohibition there were upwards of 40 breweries in the City of St Louis. At the time, the city was much smaller and much less populated than it is today. And while we don’t have quite the number of breweries per capita that we used to, one thing in St Louis has remained: a love for good beer. We’re a drinking town, there’s no denying it. And if you want to drink like a local, these are the places you must see to try the best beer in St Louis.
