EDITOR'S NOTE: The chart above is a ranking of the top reporting
third-tier brewers, omitting A-B, Miller, Coors and Pabst. The chart
is
not all inclusive, but does include most major producers. There are
now
approximately 1400 U.S. brewers, the majority pub operations with
average production of 1200 barrels per annum. Those brewers that did
not
report before our deadline but would like inclusion in a future chart
should send 2001-2000 barrelalge figures by e-mail to editor Pete Reid
at pela@breweryage.com. An updated version of this chart will be
published in our next edition.
KEY: * = Modern Brewery Age estimate
+ = brewpub
@ = barrelage includes some contract production |
