年复一年，美国最大啤酒企业的排名并无重大变化。高居榜首的总是百威英博，Yuengling则是精酿龙头。但说到美国增长最快的啤酒酿造商，情况就会变得有趣一些。
美国酿酒商协会公布了今年的年产量增长最快的小型独立啤酒制造商名单，排名首位的是来自于艾奥瓦州克利尔莱克的湖光酿造公司。
除非是当地居民，否则大家很可能没有听说过这家公司，就连精酿啤酒发烧友也不例外。在上榜的50家啤酒制造商中，大多数公司的情况可能都是如此。
前十名如下：
1. 湖光酿造公司，克利尔莱克，艾奥瓦州
2. 芬斯大牡蛎啤酒厂，里霍博斯比奇，特拉华州
3. 橡树路啤酒厂，萨默维尔，南卡罗来纳州

整体而言，上榜公司的增长率中值为163%，其产量从每年50桶到逾4万桶不等。
酿酒商协会的首席经济学家巴特•沃特森说：“尽管市场竞争不断升温，但这些小型独立啤酒制造商和精酿公司向我们表明，在各个地区以及各类业务模式下仍有增长机会。”
The rankings of the nation’s biggest breweries don’t change dramatically from year to year. AB InBev is always atop the list. And Yuengling leads the craft brewing category. But when it comes to the nation’s fastest growing breweries, things get a bit more interesting.
The Brewer’s Association has announced this year’s list of the small and independent beer makers whose production has increased the most in the past year. And Lake Time Brewery from Clear Lake, Iowa tops the list.
There’s a fair chance you haven’t heard of Lake Time, even if you’re a craft beer enthusiast, unless you live in the area. That’s likely true of most of the 50 breweries on the list.
Take a look at the top 10 yourself:
1. Lake Time Brewing, Clear Lake, Iowa
2. Fins Big Oyster Brewery, Rehoboth Beach, Del.
3. Oak Road Brewery, Summerville, S.C.
4. The Dreamchaser’s Brewery, Waxhaw, N.C.
5. Lone Pine Brewing Co, Portland, Maine
6. Shattered Oak Brewing, Oregon City, Ore.
7. New Glory Craft Brewery, Sacramento, Calif.
8. Bonn Place Brewing, Bethlehem, Pa.
9. Borderlands Brewing Co., Tucson, Ariz.
10. Periodic Brewing, Leadville, Colo.
Overall, the brewers on the list experienced a median growth of 163%. Production volumes ranged from 50 barrels per year to over 40,000 per year.
“Even as market competition continues to increase, these small and independent breweries and brewpubs demonstrate there are still growth opportunities across a perse set of regions and business models,” said Bart Watson, chief economist at the Brewers Association.
