RateBeer has released their list of the top brewers in the world for 2014. The list features a new top brewer in the world in AleSmith from San Diego. No. 2 on the list is Hill Farmstead and no.3 Three Floyds, while rounding out the Top 5 are Russian River and Bells Brewery.
New additions to the top 100 this year came from states of the USA not well known for their brewing like Iowa, South Carolina and Arizona, showing just how widespread great craft beer is becoming there. Other interesting tidbits are that there are now 6 English breweries in the top 100, tops after Belgium and USA, while 8 Wired still flies the flag for Oceania.

I don’t know if you heard about a Brazilian brewery named Wäls. It won 1 gold and 1 silver medals in the 2014 World Beer Cup. It’s not exporting its beer yet but I believe it’s possible to find some abroad. Anyway it worths all the efforts on looking for these beers. Cheers
