Craft brewing refers to the small-scale production of beer, typically by independent breweries. These breweries focus on quality, flavor, and traditional brewing methods, often experimenting with unique ingredients and styles. Craft brewers prioritize creativity and community, often producing limited batches that reflect local tastes and cultures. The craft brewing movement has gained popularity worldwide, leading to a diverse range of beer options. Many craft breweries offer tours and tastings, allowing consumers to learn about the brewing process and the different types of beer, such as IPAs, stouts, and sours. This has fostered a strong connection between brewers and beer enthusiasts.
