A Craft Beer Boom is Brewing in Alabama

A beer revolution is brewing in Alabama. Drinkers thirsty for something other than Budweiser or Miller didn’'t have many choices in the state just a few years ago, but a series of laws passed since 2009 has opened up Alabama to the world of high-alcohol specialty beers, neighborhood brew pubs and microbreweries. It’s a big change in a Bible Belt state that still has dry counties and legally banned home beer brewing and wine making until this year.
