American Craft Beer & Distilleries

The US craft beer revolution transformed the country into one of the world's most exciting beer destinations. Over 9,000 craft breweries operate nationwide, from Portland, Oregon's hop-forward IPAs to Vermont's Heady Topper (regularly rated the world's best beer). Bourbon country in Kentucky (Louisville and Lexington) offers world-class whiskey distillery tours. The American whiskey trail and craft beer trails are growing tourist attractions.
