Our lunch highlight at SeaWorld ® – getting to sample the free beer from Anheuser-Busch is no more.

I was always amazed at the huge line for the free beer. The last time I went the line was out the door with people happily waiting up to twenty minutes just to get a sample.

Conveniently, the “beer tent” was also a cafeteria and did a huge volume of food business around the samples. SeaWorld ® plans to turn the free beer area into a place of more “broader appeal” (1). The closure could also be a cost cutting measure especially if it saves thousands of dollars daily.

By the way, for those of you that are interested in renting a vacation home close to Sea World the nearest community is Vista Cay which we review HERE.

I don’t think anyone really went to SeaWorld ® just for the free beer which is probably why it is being closed, but rest assured it will be sorely missed.
