Great factory tours in the U.S.

The Anheuser-Busch Factory Tour in the company’s home base of St. Louis can be a popular tourist stop between a ride in the Gateway Arch and a day at a Cardinals baseball game. The tour, which visits the Budweiser Clydesdale horses as well as the Brew House, “puts a face on the world’s largest brewer,” said Karen Axelrod and Bruce Brumberg. The husband-and-wife team co-wrote the book “Watch It Made in the U.S.A.: A Visitor’s Guide to the Best Factory Tours and Company Museums” and are proprietors of FactoryTour.com. Here, Axelrod has offered 10 other great factory tours in the United States.  (James A. Finley/ Associated Press)
