CHAPTER III: BUILDING BIGGER | BEER BARONS 2024 We’re celebrating 175 years of St. Louis beer brewing and distilling history throughout the year, and "Beer Barons Chapter III – Building Bigger" will pay tribute to barons who helped the brewing industry in St. Louis navigate a pivotal period and build a foundation for national and global leadership with their respective brands. Barons highlighted at this event are William J. Lemp, Ellis Wainwright, Eberhard Anheuser, William F. Nolker, Joseph Griesedieck, and David Grace Nicholson.  Step back in with time us as we celebrate our resident barons with walking tours though the Cemetery, great food, music, and samples of beer, spirits, and wine.
