New Website to Feature Local Breweries, Taprooms, and Craft Beer Festivals Across the Country

The booming craft beer industry is a cultural phenomenon as much as a business trend. Today's artisanal breweries grew out of the home-brew trend of the 1980s and 90s. The folks who truly cared about beer shared ideas and passion for creating better ales, lagers, and IPSs. The best of them went on to start their own breweries and they still see themselves as comrades in a David vs. Goliath struggle with macro brewers like Anheuser-Busch InBev. There's a new website that captures some of that cooperative spirit while helping us find the perfect brew.

So, let's say that you are vacationing in Montauk, LI and wonder if there's a local brewery to sample some new Pilsners or IPAs [India Pale Ale]. There's now a website that will assist you in your search. A quick search on Local Brews leads you to the Montauk Brewing Company which has some excellent ales, IPAs, and Pilsners. I can attest to the quality.

Finding new craft breweries and taprooms is simple now that LocalBrews.Beer has officially launched a one-stop source of all information on the best breweries and beer festivals in the US. The new website was created by four friends who wanted to make it easy to find the perfect brewery or event no matter where you ended up in America.

LocalBrews.beer: "Together, we want to build the most comprehensive brewery and beer site on the web, helping everyone find just what they are looking for locally and across this great nation."

Their website is very easy to use and allows you to narrow your search by distance or other features such as whether they are dog and family-friendly, offer food, or have a patio. The site also features beer festivals and other related events across the country and users can leave reviews once they visit a new brewery. Craft beer lovers enjoy sharing their experiences sampling new brews. It's part of the enjoyment, part of the camaraderie of the culture that has grown up around this booming industry.
