. In fact, tens of thousands of beer industry employees are farmers. After all, beer is an agricultural product at its core.
The connection between beer and agriculture stretches back to the beginning of civilization. Archeological research suggests that the desire to brew beer drove our ancestors’ transition from nomadic lifestyles to settled agricultural societies.
The deep-rooted connection between beer and farming continues today. American farmers are the unsung heroes of countless industries, and beer is no exception. For the beer industry to thrive, farmers must be given the resources and support they need to prosper. And when it comes to supporting American agriculture in Washington, the Farm Bill is of paramount importance.
The U.S. hops industry alone is valued at over $662 million, a clear indicator of its importance to the brewing industry.
But beer’s connection to agriculture goes beyond the basics of hops and barley. Large and small brewers alike use cranberries, herbs, honey, and even unconventional ingredients like oysters and spruce tips to craft a wide range of beer styles and flavors. This ensures there is truly a beer out there for everyone.
