Budweiser Clydesdales Come to VaHi!

Virginia-Highland residents were treated to a mid-day surprise visit by the Budweiser Clydesdales yesterday.

The iconic horses are in town for an appearance in Atlanta’s St. Patrick’s Day parade this weekend. The massive steeds, their attendants and their magnificent beer-laden carriage assembled at Manuel’s Tavern around 3 PM, then headed north on N. Highland Avenue. Stops were made at the Chevron Station at the corner of N. Highland and Virginia, Limerick Junction, Atkins Park and Neighbor’s. At each stop a supply of Budweiser – freshly brewed yesterday morning at the Anheuser Busch plant in Cartersville – was delivered. Hundreds of VaHi residents lined N. Highland, cheering the beautiful horses on as they made their deliveries.
