Bud Light Bags
Description: In 1954, a new brewery was opened in Van Nuys. The company opened one of the modern Busch Gardens parks at this site in 1966 that included boat rides, a monorail designed into a brewery tour, and free beer. The park expanded to 5 acres in 1972 with a log flume ride and a sky trolley. The 17-acre amusement park was renamed Busch Bird Sanctuary in 1977 and closed in 1979. The birds were moved to the nearby Los Angeles Zoo and the Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and Williamsburg locations. The site of the Van Nuys theme park is currently a Bud Light facility and one of the remnants of the park is the footbridge connecting to the 1972 expansion.
Description: The Hemelinger Actien Brauerei was a brewery that had been based in what was then a Bremen suburb and is now the district of Hemelingen since 1878. In 1921, the Aktienbrauerei was taken over by Beck & Co. The HAB brewery was closed in 1981. The original company premises on Hemelinger Bahnhofstrasse were used for a long time as a branch and distribution warehouse for Beck & Co. and as a bottling plant for Bremer Erfrischungsgetränke GmbH (concessionaire for Coca-Cola). In 2007, the company was taken over by Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke GmbH ; the site was closed on July 1, 2016.
