Those who enjoy a good adult beverage know the potential that craft beer offers. There are so many different potential flavours and styles to enjoy that it can take years just to explore all of the different options in your geographical area.
Whether you are experienced or completely new to craft beer, there is a whole world out there waiting for you to partake. Just head to your local establishment and see what their craft list looks like. You may be shocked at the results.
High-Quality Beer
What really separates craft beer from the stuff you can buy at a gas station is the quality. Those other beers are focused on quantity over quality. They have the goal of putting as much as possible out there. But with craft brews, there is a priority of quality.
That means using nothing but fresh, quality ingredients each step of the way. No corners cut and no cheap items. It also means a distilling process that, while it may take longer, produces the best possible product.
If you have never tried a craft brew before, you have been missing out. Put down the watered down beer and head to your local pub for offerings like you have never experienced.
Why Craft Is Better
There are also a plethora of reasons why enjoying a craft brew is better than your traditional beer. For starters, it actually gives you a higher alcohol by volume and the average is higher than what you will find in those other beers. Whereas the average of the latter is anywhere from 2% to 5%, the average craft beer runs anywhere from 5% to 10%, which means more alcohol for less cost.
There is also the taste factor. The vast majority of beer that you buy at the grocery store or gas station tastes watered down and bitter. This is because they use inferior ingredients and focus on speed over quality in their brewing process. Craft brews are simply better-tasting than their counterparts.
That isn’t even mentioning the wide array of flavours that you can find in craft brews. There are so many, from different breweries, that you will have to go back again and again to try them all. Combine them all together and you can see why craft brews are so popular and only continuing to get more popular with each passing day.
