An Interesting Tidbit

I just came across this from the Brewer's Association (parent of the AHA), and I thought it was worth sharing.


The American brewing industry reached another milestone at the end of June, with more than 3,000 breweries operating for all or part of the month (3,040 to be precise). Although precise numbers from the 19th century are difficult to confirm, this is likely the first time the United States has crossed the 3,000 brewery barrier since the 1870s.
