Brewers Association looks back at craft beer in 2011
Was 2011 the year of the brewpub? I can’t definitively state this for fact, because I personally feel brewpubs have not truly arrived until every food editor and Food Network star in the U.S. knows what a growler is and has toured their local brewpub. But, of the 1,829 American breweries, 1,000 of them are brewpubs who are at the forefront of this craft and local beer movement.
