Craft Beer

Craft beer is a type of beer that is produced by small, independent breweries, known as craft breweries. These breweries prioritize quality, flavor, and traditional brewing methods over mass production. Craft beer is characterized by its emphasis on unique ingredients, innovative brewing techniques, and a wide variety of styles, often reflecting local tastes and cultures. The definition typically involves the brewery producing a certain volume per year, often cited as under six million barrels, and being independently owned. Craft beer consumers often seek distinctive flavors, seasonal brews, and artisanal approaches to brewing, making it a popular choice among beer enthusiasts. The craft beer movement has gained significant traction over the past few decades, promoting a diverse array of innovations and pushing the boundaries of traditional beer styles.
