Craft beer originated in the late 1970s in the UK, thanks to a generation of small breweries focused on traditional ale production. Those are referred to as microbreweries or brewpubs due to this characteristic.
The craft beer industry bases its production on the German Purity Law. The Brewers Association dictates that for a beer to be considered craft, it must be composed solely of water, barley malt, hops, and yeast. Its production must be less than seven million barrels per year, conduct itself independently, and not be part of a transnational company.
