Sorry I missed this conference. Going over some news links and came across this and wanted shared. The making of and sales of Craft Beers has grown tremendously here in DC, with many DC based companies. Along with this, there was over $49.1 million dollars in export sales to other countries! These brewers are under the umbrella of the Brewers Association, the non-profit trade representing American small and independent breweries located in Boulder, CO.
In 2011, DC ranked 19th with craft breweries per capita. This is a new and budding industry in DC, which has added to our employment and revenue base!
Congratulations to our DC Breweries and continued success in not only your growth, but also in your recognition for outstanding products!
