Austin, TX - The growth and popularity of craft breweries in Texas in the last decade is nothing short of remarkable. The Texas craft sector produced 45,000 barrels in 2008. Just eight years later, this number had grown to 1.16 million barrels, ranking Texas 7th in production by state, per The Brewers Association's 2016 analysis. Craft brew's economic impact in Texas ranked 3rd amongst the states with $4.54 billion in sales and 8th in number of breweries operating at 201 (and probably upwards of 240 breweries today).
