Grow ’em long: The best beards in craft beer

Flipping through the pages of Craft Brewing Business (CBB), you may notice a growing trend among craft brewers. Ok, besides the beer. We’re talking about beards. Mighty beards. As mighty and bold as the brews their wearers create. CBB knows a thing or two about beards — all of us have sported a manly mane in our day, and two of us still keep it real with facial hair. But we don’t live as large as some of the most amazing craft brewer beards.

The fine folks at CraftBeer.com called on Brewers Association members to send in their best beard pics. The natural moustache, the imperial partial beard and the Verdi are all well-worn in CraftBeer.com’s slide show, which rival those seen at the World Beard and Moustache Championships. The craft beer beard Finals is under way.
