There were some movers and shakers but for the most part the list looks a lot like last year. The top ten look pretty much the same except for the #6 last year International Brewers United (IBU) being removed causing those under 5 to move up one spot. The exception is Lagunitas who shot into the top 10 by jumping up eight spots to #9. Boulevard is holding strong at the #10 spot. Schlafly moved up three positions to the #39 spot. Check out the rest of the list and as always support your favorite local brewery.
