I am now aware of 150 brewery/brewpub-related Twitter accounts since I announced 45-50 in mid-January. The number of signups after the initial post exploded. At least a few breweries already on Twitter had no clue as to why they were getting so many more followers. I will clean this up later when I have more time but you may find some that are misplaced. Leave a comment!


Here is the updated list with some “segmenting” to make the long list a little easier to filter (pardon some out of place numbers as I shuffled things around a bit):

  2. I didn’t see @MondayNight (us) on the list of breweries to open in 2009 or damn near close to it. I’ll pretend you were going to have an entirely separate post on our Twitter account. So don’t worry about it, no hard feelings.

  3. [...] just like everyone else breweries are joining Twitter too. Beernews.org has a roundup of 150 breweries that are on Twitter. They say that number has tripled in the last two months. I follow @StoneBrewingCo and their CEO [...]

  27. I’ve just started a similar thing – keeping track of brewers – although I’m only specifically looking at UK brewers (and particularly real ale ones). I think there are a few on my post that you have missed. Would appreciate if you could similarly let me know any UK based ones I’ve missed via email, comments on that page or direct to me at @ThePickards on twitter.

    cheers!

  28. Lagunitas is on there, too:
