How were America's best breweries determined? Check out our method.
What does the "best beer in America" even mean?
Clearly there is no simple answer, but here is how we are framing the question:
Best: There is no universally agreed upon best beer any more than there is a best car or a best movie. That being said, many breweries have good beer, some breweries have better beer, and a few consistently brew the best beer around. We are searching for the best.
Beer: A delicious alcoholic carbonated beverage of ancient heritage and modern stylings. It may be singular or it may be plural - or maybe it depends on countability or context or craftiness.
At America's Best Beer, beer is generally plural as in, "Drinking real American beer is much better than that skunky imported stuff in green bottles." The important thing is that it tastes good (and yes - it should look good and smell good and feel good too).
America: Despite the historic popularity of somewhat tasteless mass-produced lagers, America now has the best beer in the world. The top 3 breweries in each state have been determined through a combination of math, popular vote and good old honest American subjectivity. These breweries theoretically pour the best beer in America.
