Craft breweries add more than $79 billion to the U.S. economy
America's thirst for craft beer is making a huge economic impact, a new report reveals.
"With a strong presence across the 50 states and the District of Columbia, craft breweries are a vibrant and flourishing economic force at the local, state and national level," says Bart Watson, the Brewers Association's chief economist."As consumers continue to demand a wide range of high-quality, full-flavored beers, small and independent craft brewers are meeting this growing demand with innovative offerings, creating high levels of economic value in the process.
Of 559,545 jobs provided by the craft brewing industry last year, about 150,000 were located at the breweries, according to the report. Workers for craft breweries received more than $5 billion in wages and benefits during the year. Wyoming's craft breweries contributed less money to the economy than any other state's breweries. But it wasn't chump change — $193 million.
