This unique creation, first made available to fans who attended the Field of Dreams game in Dyersville, will be limited to select stores in Iowa, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania. Stars such as Ken Griffey Jr., Randy Johnson, and Mike Piazza have previously collaborated with Budweiser on various fan events and special editions.",
