Do You Love Craft Beer?

BREWERYWe do too!! The craft beer phenomenon has literally swept the country. What you may not know is that the craft beer renaissance started primarily because home brewers were passionate about their beer. After prohibition, the number of breweries shrunk to as few as 50 in the entire United States. Many beer lovers who had a passion for beer wanted a variety of beers that offered more in the way of flavor than the larger commercial breweries were producing, and so they turned to making beer at home. By the 1970’s, some of the more entrepreneurial home brewers were convinced that their beer was better than anything you could buy, so they opened up small breweries in order to sell their beer – and thus the “micro” brewery concept was born. Today the term “micro brewery” has evolved into “craft brewery” to reflect the personal, individual nature of the products they produce. The acceptance of craft beer has exploded – by the end of 2015, there were over 4,100 craft breweries in the United States! These small businesses have stimulated a renewed interest in beer, resulting in many people finding new favorites among style they never even new existed.
