Commercial brewing is the process of producing beer on a large scale for sale to the public. This involves various stages, including mashing, boiling, fermenting, and packaging. Breweries use specific ingredients like malt, hops, yeast, and water to create different beer styles, ensuring consistency and quality. Breweries can range from small craft operations to large industrial facilities. Craft breweries often focus on unique flavors and local ingredients, while larger breweries may produce well-known brands. The commercial brewing industry plays a significant role in the economy, providing jobs and contributing to local and national markets.
