Possibly thanks to beer, St. Louis's water is also some of the best in the nation. A common myth (or is it?) is that Anheuser-Busch pressures the city maintain a high quality water system, so they can brew high quality beer. [0]
The funny part is if you go 4 miles west, coldwater creek comes into play, which is famously radioactive. [1]

- scrumbledober 8y agoI would assume that is a myth. A major brewery like any of the ones operated by AB-Inbev strips the water of any mineral impurities by reverse osmosis before adding back in the mineral profile they're looking for for that particular brew.
