American craft beer production volume grew 18 percent in the first half of 2014, according to the Brewers Association (BA). About 10.6 million barrels of beer were sold by craft brewers from Jan. 1 to June 30, up from 9.0 million barrels over the first half of 2013. The 18 percent growth rate is based on the BA’s updated definition of a craft brewer.
