Minnesota microbrewery count explodes from 9 to 37 in just 30 months
There are now 62 licensed malt beverage manufacturers in Minnesota. That includes six large breweries — Summit, Surly, August Schell, Cold Spring, Tallgrass and 21st Amendment — and 19 brewpubs, where bars brew small batches on site. But the part of the beer market that’s really taking off is the microbreweries. Minnesota had nine in 2010. Today there are 37.
