    Excellent Brewery, Davenport is about an hour from me and the population is a bit over 100 thousand definitely not small town. I was just watching an episode of "My Big Redneck Vacation" and guess where they stopped and got a job Great River its pretty good episode. Spoiler Alert They Jump into a Vat of Beer after asking how much that it was worth. 15 Grand of Great River Beer Turned into a Redneck Swimming Hole. CLASSIC.

    Interesting thread

    Just for pointless comparison sake, here's some from scotland

    Fyne Ales - closest is cairndow, pop 170
    Cromarty, - Cromarty , 720
    Houston - 6,600 or so which I wasn't expecting, I thought Houston was much smaller albeit with a number of villages near by.
    Brewdog - Ellon 9600

    Big Bear Mountain Brewery in Big Bear, CA. Too bad they aren't very good beers.

    I wonder how many of the breweries in the small towns listed have a decent sized city nearby? /me playing devil's advocate.

    Nobody said New Glarus yet? I live 40 or so miles away. I think it's somewhere around 2,000 people.

    1 Brewery in Pinedale WY: Pop 2027
    1 Brewery in Buffalo WY: Pop 4585
