The public is welcome to watch the Budweiser Clydesdales parade along Frankford Avenue next Wednesday night. The parade is set to begin at 6 p.m. on Aug. 28 outside the newly opened Cottman Beverage, at 7544 Frankford Ave. The Clydesdales will trot south on the avenue and are expected to arrive at Mayfair Beverage, at 6500 Frankford Ave., at 7:45 p.m.

Eight 2,000-pound horses are expected to be hitched and harnessed to a red beer wagon.

The Clydesdales have been a part of Anheuser-Busch since 1933, shortly after the end of Prohibition. ••
