8 beers Americans no longer drink

Post by carrisr »

I wouldn't cry too much...according to this article, the top 20 beers still sold 149 million barrels out of 208 million total for 2010. Bud Light sold 39 Million of those. Total domestic craft beer sales in 2010 were just under 10 million barrels. I'm not sure of this, but I seem to remember that Boston Beer sold around 1 million, followed by Sierra Nevada at a half million. These are for their entire lines, not single beers.

Seeing as they are all InBev and Miller-Coors products, all I can say is -

WAH! :cry:
