About Craft Brewing Business

Craft Brewing Business is a trade website dedicated to the professionals working in what we’ll categorize as the high-end, local-focused, small business sector of the beer market. We as employee owners also embrace the independent spirit and small business values that are integral to the craft alcohol industry. The result is an award-winning website and newsletter helping craft breweries succeed in today’s ultra-competitive marketplace that now has 9,000+ breweries operating in America.

Craft Brewing Business covers the business of beer from four distinct angles: 1) equipment and systems; 2) marketing and distribution; 3) supplies and ingredients; and 4) business and management services. From fermenters and philanthropy to hops and overhead costs, our editorial is a mix of breaking news, tech articles, brewery spotlights, community outreach, equipment analysis, legislative updates and tradeshow coverage that you can’t find anywhere else (for free, at least). Our readers are beer pros — brewers, packaging managers, chemists, bartenders, distributors, merchandise clerks and anyone vital to the success of a commercial craft brewery.

We as writers are beer enthusiasts, but this is not an enthusiasts’ site. Craft Brewing Business is committed to the big business of running a small brewery.
