Biggest beer stories of 2022

You've (almost) made it through another year.  Congrats.  There was a lot going on in 2022 and you may have missed some of the beer stories with all <gestures broadly> this going on.PBR started off the year with some interesting Tweets.  We saw some big acquisitions and mergers, a few major closures, and we lost a legend.  NA beer continued to grow, and it continues to be highly-debated whether or not the sectors growth is meaningful.West Coast IPA came back around for a visit, and we're guessing we'll see more of it.  Brian's betting on more rauchbiers, but I'm not so sure about that one.Our biggest concern is that breweries are out of Covid money and some that may have been ready to call it quits in 2020 are facing that now, along with others.  I'm afraid we'll see a lot of closures in the new year.Well.  Whatever happens.  We'll be at the studio having a nice, cold pint and waiting for it all to blow over.Cheers and Happy New Year!Thanks for listening to Beer Guys Radio!
