In recent years, the craft beer industry has transformed from a niche market into a significant economic powerhouse. The year 2024 marked a milestone for this burgeoning sector, with craft breweries contributing an impressive $77.1 billion to the US economy. This figure not only represents the direct output of breweries but also encompasses the ripple effects felt across various related industries. Let’s dive deeper into the numbers and explore the far-reaching impact of craft beer on the American economic landscape.

The beer industry provided 77.1$ Billion to the US Economy in 2024

Breaking Down the Numbers

The $77.1 billion economic contribution is a testament to the craft beer industry’s robust growth and widespread influence. This figure includes:

  1. Direct brewery output

  2. Wholesale and retail sales

  3. Induced economic activity in related sectors

It’s important to note that this number represents more than just the sale of beer. It accounts for the entire ecosystem that the craft beer industry supports and stimulates.

Job Creation: More Than Just Brewers

One of the most significant impacts of the craft beer industry is its role in job creation. In 2024, the sector supported approximately 460,000 jobs across the nation. These jobs span a wide range of fields, including:

  • Brewing and production

  • Distribution and logistics

  • Retail and hospitality

  • Agriculture (hops and grain farming)

  • Packaging and equipment manufacturing

This diverse job market demonstrates how the craft beer industry’s influence extends far beyond the walls of breweries themselves.

Jobs at breweries

The Multiplier Effect: Supporting Local Economies

Craft breweries have become anchors in many local economies, particularly in small towns and rural areas. The “multiplier effect” of craft breweries is substantial:

  • For every job created in a brewery, an estimated 30 additional jobs are supported in related industries.

  • Local farmers benefit from increased demand for hops, barley, and other brewing ingredients.

  • Tourism often flourishes in areas with thriving craft beer scenes, boosting local hospitality and retail sectors.

Innovation and Entrepreneurship

The craft beer industry is known for its spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship. In 2024, this trend continued with:

  • New brewing techniques and styles being developed

  • Increased focus on sustainable practices and locally-sourced ingredients

  • Collaborations between breweries and other local businesses

This culture of innovation not only drives economic growth but also fosters a sense of community and local pride.

The economics of beer

Challenges and Future Outlook

Despite its impressive growth, the craft beer industry faced challenges in 2024:

  • Increased competition in a saturated market

  • Rising costs of raw materials

  • Regulatory hurdles in some states

However, the industry’s resilience and adaptability suggest a positive outlook for the future. Many breweries have diversified their offerings, expanded into new markets, and embraced e-commerce to stay competitive.

The Broader Impact on American Culture

Beyond the numbers, craft beer has had a profound impact on American culture:

  • It has revitalized interest in traditional brewing methods and styles

  • Craft beer festivals and tasting events have become popular social gatherings

  • The industry has sparked a renewed appreciation for artisanal and locally-produced goods

Beer and taxes and information on the economics of beer

Craft Beer Industry: A Two-Year Comparison (2023-2024)

The craft beer industry has experienced significant changes over the past three years. Let’s examine the key metrics and trends from 2022 to 2024:

Production Volume

  • 2023: The industry produced 23.4 million barrels of beer, a 1% decline from 2022.

  • 2024: Estimated 2% decline in production volume compared to 2023.

This data shows a continuing downward trend in production volume, with the decline accelerating slightly in 2024.

Number of Breweries

  • 2023: 9,339 active craft breweries as of June 2023.

  • 2024: 9,358 active craft breweries as of June 2024.

Despite challenges, the number of craft breweries has slightly increased year-over-year.

Economic Contribution

  • 2023: The craft beer industry contributed $77.1 billion to the U.S. economy.

  • 2024: The industry’s economic contribution reached $77.1 billion.

The economic impact remained stable from 2023 to 2024, demonstrating the industry’s resilience despite production challenges.

Market Share

  • 2023: Craft beer increased its market share to 13.3% of the overall beer market.

  • 2024: Specific market share not provided, but the slight decline in production suggests a potential small decrease in market share.

Employment

  • 2023: The industry supported nearly 460,000 jobs nationwide.

  • 2024: The industry continued to support nearly 460,000 jobs.

Employment in the craft beer industry has remained stable over the past two years.

Industry Challenges

  • 2023: Recovery from pandemic impacts, but faced with new hurdles in costs and competition.

  • 2024: Continued challenges with inflation, pricing concerns, and competition from other beverage categories like RTD cocktails.

The comparison reveals that while the craft beer industry has faced consistent challenges over the past three years, it has shown resilience in maintaining its economic impact and employment levels. However, the declining production volumes suggest that the industry is still navigating a complex and competitive market landscape.

 

Conclusion: A Frothy Future for Craft Beer

The $77.1 billion contribution to the US economy in 2024 is more than just a number—it’s a reflection of the craft beer industry’s integral role in American economic and cultural life. From job creation to community building, the impact of craft breweries extends far beyond the bottom of a glass. As we look to the future, the craft beer industry’s continued innovation and adaptability suggest that its economic influence will only continue to grow, providing a refreshing boost to the US economy for years to come.

Whether you’re a craft beer enthusiast, an economist, or simply someone interested in American industry trends, the story of craft beer’s economic impact is one worth raising a glass to. Cheers to the brewers, farmers, distributors, and countless others who make this industry not just a economic force, but a beloved part of American culture.

As a nerd, a Star Wars fan, and a geek, this brewery closing hurts. J. Wakefield Brewing has become one of the powerhouse breweries along the Eastern Coast, and one of the top and premier breweries of Florida. Known for their fun, quirky, nerdy beer names and can art, and a wonderful looking taproom with great murals all over it. Today, at 5 PM, J. Wakefield Brewing announced via Facebook (and as well as Instagram) that they will be closing their Wynwood location. (Located at 120 NW 24th St, Miami, FL 33127)

This decision has not come easily, but the ever-changing landscape of the neighborhood has presented challenges that we can no longer navigate effectively.
We want to extend our deepest gratitude for all your unwavering support and loyalty over the years. Your presence and enthusiasm have been the heartbeat of our taproom and each Wakefest that we’ve hosted. We have cherished every pint, and every story told within these walls. It has been a privilege to be part of such a vibrant community.
While we will be saying goodbye to our current location, we want you to know that our passion for brewing remains as strong as ever. We will continue to craft the same quality beers you have come to love and will stay actively engaged in the community through events, tap takeovers, and collaborations around the city.

Stony Run Brew House

Stony Run Brew House is selling their brewery and business to a local brewery. No word yet on what brewery has purchased or bought them; just word that it is a “local brewery”.

Stony Run Brew House made the announcement today that they were selling their brewery and business, located at 3605 E Market St, York, PA 17402.

We previously posted word about a York area brewery trying to sell their shares, no word on if this is them. (Most likely based on size and volume it is not.) (See: Rumors and Round-Ups: Rumor Mill – 5.23.24)

Announcement

Stony Run Brew House posted this to their Facebook page earlier:

Stony Run Family!
We have some important news!
We are currently finalizing details for the sale and transition of the business to another local brewery! (to be named later… don’t want to steal their thunder) Having said that, Stony Run Brew House will cease operation Sunday July 28th. This will allow for the new management to renovate and prepare for reopening sometime in the near future! We appreciate each and every one of our loyal customers and friends! Thank you for the opportunity of serving you over the years! Please come in and support our awesome staff this week, they will be transitioning with the new owner. God bless you all!
Gift cards need to be redeemed by the 28th. Thank you.
When we have more information we will keep everyone updated. The 27th of July will be their last day of current ownership and operations – so we should know more soon after that.

Selin’s Grove Brewing Closing Until Further Notice https://thebeerthrillers.com/2024/07/16/selins-grove-brewing-closing-until-further-notice/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=selins-grove-brewing-closing-until-further-notice Tue, 16 Jul 2024 14:44:32 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=15295

Selin’s Grove Brewing announcement

Selin’s Grove Brewing Announces Closure

The hits keep coming this week. In a week that had  Grand Illusion Cider announce their closure, Mad Princes Brewing, the brewery of 2 Dogz and a Guy, Tied House (former partner of Pour Man’s Brewing), Odd Breed, and sadly far too many more across the country (and even more then abroad as well) in the past month or so – we can now sadly add another to this growing list – Selin’s Grove Brewing.

Like I said, the hits keep coming.

Just in the past month it feels like all we’ve been doing on here is discussing breweries closing, restaurants closing, events cancelling, brewing related websites closing, etc. Sigh.

Just now on their Facebook account, Selin’s Grove Brewing announced:

To all of our Selin’s Grove Brewing patrons:

We just received word that some of the owners of the pub would like for us to close until further notice. We apologize to our loyal customers and hope things will be up and running again soon!

Selin’s Grove Brewing – Facebook Post

Closure

No word on how permanent this is. Speculation will run rampant, but there is no word on how long, what it means, or what it entails. The Selin’s Grove Pub and Brewery and Restaurant was put up for sale in 2020. (Selin’s Grove Pub for Sale.)

Selin’s Grove Brewery is located at 121 N Market St, Selinsgrove, PA 17870.

We will keep you posted and updated when we hear anything.

More Information on Selin’s Grove Brewing

The following comes via Untappd.

Selin’s Grove Brewing is listed as a brewpub from Selinsgrove, PA. They have 168 unique beers, and over 21,000 ratings for a global average rating of 3.82 (as of 7.16.24).

Tattered Flag Brewery and Distillery is Now Up for Auction https://thebeerthrillers.com/2024/05/22/tattered-flag-brewery-and-distillery-is-now-up-for-auction/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tattered-flag-brewery-and-distillery-is-now-up-for-auction Wed, 22 May 2024 22:29:07 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=15046

Tattered Flag Brewery and Distillery

Tattered Flag Brewery and Distillery is Now Up for Auction

The retail property at 1 S. Union St., is scheduled for auction on June 24, according to Nik Sgagais of NAI CIR, a commercial real estate company in Lemoyne, previously the location of the Tattered Flag Brewery and Distillery – which closed last fall. The former site of Tattered Flag Brewery going up for auction; starting at $275,000.

According to a recent listing on Crexi, the former Tattered Flag Brewery at 1 South Union Street in Dauphin County will be auctioned on Monday, June 24. The bidding for this 13,000-square-foot space will start at $275,000.

This property includes a full-service restaurant with seating for up to 200 guests and is located just 2.5 miles from Harrisburg International Airport.

Interested bidders must register for the auction by clicking here or by contacting Nikolas Sgagias of NAI CIR for any inquiries.

The Tattered Flag Brewery, which opened in 2015, was renowned for its award-winning handcrafted beer, spirits, and cocktails. The business closed on Sunday, October 1.

Auction

With its distinctive big-city vibe and prime location in downtown Middletown, this must-see property offers an unparalleled investment opportunity.

-Auction Notice

For those eyeing a prime location to launch a restaurant or event space in Dauphin County, the former Tattered Flag Brewery & Still Works in Middletown presents a unique opportunity.

Initially listed for sale last summer, Tattered Flag was founded in 2015 by military veteran Pat Devlin and his high school friends from Susquenita. They transformed the former Elks building, a two-story structure with three storefronts and a meeting room, into a vibrant brewpub and distillery after extensive renovations.

The owners announced the closure last summer, attributing it to various challenges including rapid expansion, the pandemic, and the inflation/labor crisis.

The property is now up for auction as a short sale, meaning the mortgage lender is permitting the sale for less than what is owed. The 13,000-square-foot full-service restaurant, which seats about 200 guests, has a starting bid of $275,000. While the real estate is included in the auction, the brewery and distillery equipment will be sold separately, as noted by NAI CIR.

Tattered Flag was known for its diverse beer offerings, especially New England-style IPAs and sour beers. The distillery produced award-winning spirits including gin, vodka, and blue agave.

Over the years, Tattered Flag expanded with several satellite locations, including a briefly operated taproom in Derry Township, and additional outposts in Lancaster and Gettysburg.
