How do people find breweries to visit?

[khory]

i use Google alot but i also will use the American brewers association alot if you go on there they have a list of all the breweries registered with them and you can search by state. i use it alot when planing a road trip because when diving if i see a city from my list i can gust make it one of my stops.

Your state may also have an association. I check out http://www.washingtonbeer.com/ here in Washington. They also put out little maps of where to find the breweries at places like hotels, airports, or ferry boats.

Beermapping.com does require you to be open before the location will be approved, but once you're open definitely submit it (or message me and I'll add it.) My app, Find Craft Beer, pulls from the beermapping database in real time so once you're on there anyone using my app will be able to find you too.

Good to know. Thanks!

+1 for live music. It can make for an exciting environment.

Although, don't do it unless you plan to pay the musicians. Just imagine if a band without a guaranteed audience asked you to give away your beer for free at their concert and told you something like, "Imagine all of the exposure you'll get."

I can't imagine many brewery's just trying to get off the ground would be to excited about that situation.

My place is not very big .... maybe a dude with an guitar?

I can sniff them out. Make sure you vent your boiling wort outside so I can catch the scent.

Ha, Nice! I'm definitely venting it out the roof, but I think the Swing Thai next door over powers it a bit....
