Do you know which state is the biggest barley producer and one of the largest hops producers? It is Idaho. With that type of grain production, the craft beer industry is growing in the state.
The state is growing with numerous craft beer breweries popping up all over. Idaho’s capital, Boise, has interesting collaborations, like Boise Brewing’s farm to table co-op. But, some of these specialty beer are only available at the tap room.
To find a more readily available beer, look to the majestic Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. Grand Teton Brewing is the original Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Park brewery. Since 1988, the brewery has been making beer at the base of the Tetons.
