Lancaster

Lancaster Brewing Co., “inspired by long and rich brewing traditions,” sees itself as honoring the spirit of Lancaster County, Pa. and its Pennsylvania Dutch community. Popular brews include their Hop Hog IPA and the legendary Milk Stout—America's first milk stout—brewed among the lowing cows and painted barns of Lancaster County since 1995.

New Belgium

Founded in 1989, as their aspiring young homebrewer rode his mountain bike with "fat tires" through European villages famous for beer, New Belgium Brewing Company was but a glimmer in his eye. Today, Jeff Lebesch's remarkably well-balanced amber he named Fat Tire is known the world round.
