The news for the past week or so, on either side of the pond, has been pretty sucky. But here’s some good news: According to the Brewers Association, beer sales, in dollars, have increased 15% over the same time last year. Volume was up 14%.
I know for sure that I’m not entirely responsible for this uptick. Oh, and by the way, volume increased by 9% in the first half of 2010.
Even cooler is that there are over seven hundred craft breweries in the pipeline.
