New Belgium Brewing snagged 11th place in the list of top breweries in the nation!
Coloradans love their beer, and it shows. It seems like everywhere you look in the Centennial State, another craft brewery is popping up, so it's a huge deal that four were featured in the Brewers Association's Top 50 Craft Brewing Companies list for 2018.
The list is created annually based on sales volume of each brewing company. New Belgium Brewing and Odell Brewing, both based in Fort Collins, secured 4th and 23rd place, respectively. CANarchy and Left Hand Brewing Company in Longmont took 8th place and 50th place, respectively.

Anyone who's been to these breweries (shoutout to the folks in NoCo!) can attest to the quality of the beer. In a state where visiting a brewery is the equivalent to grabbing a cup of joe at Starbucks, we can be proud that these brewers made it on the list. We can also be sure that Coloradans contributed heavily to the large sales volume.
