US Beer	The United States is the largest brewer of beer in the world. It's big-name lagers are famous the world over. Recently, micro-brews have sprung up in an effort to meet the demand for beer variety. The micro-brew market is still small, but is growing all the time. America is the home of light beer, first brewed by Miller in 1975. Today, a majority of the best selling beer in the United States is light.
Microbrew	Microbrews are produced by relatively small breweries who make fewer than 50,000 barrels of beer per year. Microbreweries create specially-crafted beers that are often superior to the large-production beers, primarily due to their high-quality ingredients and careful brewing methods.
