Don't forget my favorite: microbrews -
Under 15,000 Barrels: The principle *difference between craft breweries*
and *microbreweries* is the amount of *beer* they are allowed to produce.
As defined by the American Brewers Association, a *microbrewery* is limited
to making 15,000 barrels of *beer* and must sell 75% of that product
outside of the *brewery*.

So, brewpubs must be a different category. Related: nanobrew
It is commonly thought that a *nanobrewery* is defined as a brewery that
produces no more than 3 barrels of beer in one batch. A brand new New
Hampshire law has added more structure to what a *nanobrewery* is though,
defining them as breweries that produce less than 2,000 barrels annually.
