This lecture, given at the 2005 European School of High-Energy Physics in Austria in succession of the series on CP Violation by Robert Fleischer, sheds light on the topic from a slightly different perspective, which is meant to be a link between theory and the daily work of experimentalists. An overview of Bmeson experimental history and phenomenology is followed by a description of B-meson production techniques, facilities worldwide, and a list of important present and future experiments. Current analyses are discussed, and their latest results (as of summer of 2005) are given
