Zymurgy’s 2016 Best Beers by State - via AHA

Each year we ask Zymurgy readers to share a list of their 20 favorite beers that are commercially available in the United States.

It’s always a mad dash to find out who is crowned the “Best Beer in America” by AHA members and we’ve already tallied the votes for the 2016 Best Beers in America survey, including Top Ranked Beers, Top Breweries, Best Portfolio, and Top Imports.

We took it a step further this year and tallied the votes for the best beers and breweries by state. Check out the results below and vote for your favorite breweries and beer next year!
