This is the TRUE American Spirit! How lucky are we to be a part of this phenomenal movement.

Gave me goosebumps. Great job to everyone involved.

That was truely fantastic.

Great video! Thanks for taking to time to tell it how it is!

Greg & Company: Awesome job in presenting the craft beer face to the world of fuzzy yellow beer drinkers. Not smug, not arrogant (sorry Greg) but confident and inclusive. Missing CBC this year but there in spirit. This brings it home.

Cheers, Tom

that was AWESOME!

Love it... here's one of my local favorites silvermoonbrewing.com

The video is a testimony to a historic moment in American culture. It is a great time to be alive! Another reason to be thankful to be an American! And I am proud to be a consumer of craft beer!

Yep, this DID bring a tear to my eye! I love these people and this product. Craft Beer is our soul! Cheers!

Great video that speaks to me at all kinds of levels, including my love for Craft Beer and my love for my nephew Jared who is scary-talented!

Lovingly produced. It's 8 AM and I'm already thirsty.

Great Video. I actually missed the video but saw a lot of the presentation and Greg was an amazing speaker. I actually interviewed him shortly thereafter and the video will be posted at brewpot,com in the next week when I am done editing. Also it wasn't 1700 people, it was more like 2300! Huge and awesome event!

Absolutely Perfect!!! Proud to support my local Craft Brewery - southernstarbrewery.com/

Awesome...i've got chills just writing this and i watched it like a half hour ago. I'll continue the tradition and rep my local watering hole...

I only wish I were in Beantown for the toast. This is awesome! I would encourage all Craft brewers, brew pubs and the like to post this video on your own website and pperhaps run the video in your pub or tap room, we will !

Nick Floyd was on there for a second. Awesome! Clink and Drink.

Stone Arrogant Bastard, YUM!

Nice video. Makes me want to go brew another batch!

Beautiful!

Great video! It demonstrates the real sense of home brewing! Congratulations!

Cheers from Brazil!

Exactly the right message at the right time. Incredible production. Cheers!

Hey, great job Greg and everyone who was a part of this video

What?! No Ben Stein >:-)

Thank you for sharing this. When in a moment's sense of desperation, an insightful word of inspiration. Thanks! Susan of St. Stan's

I hate to piss on the parade but this video does not exactly shout inclusion at me. Are there really no non-white craft brewers in the USA?

dear stephen,

it doesn't matter if it's a blond, brown or red ale; all of them will get you high!

ps: you can't change american history; at least not the one behind...

Nicely balanced. With a hint of walnut. Absolutely no corniness.

Holy Shit that was inspirational. Cheers to us all!!!

ps How do I get a copy of this.

Hell of a job putting together a great video. I need a tissue.

Sometimes it feels like I'm toiling alone in the brewhouse, against the macrobreweries. This video is a GREAT reminder on our very diverse, craft-brewing family!
Thanks for making it and sharing it!
I'd like to get a copy of it as well.

I love this video. It choked me up. I need a beer.

P.S. If anyone knows of any craft beer-related business in need of public relations or marketing communications help, we'd love to support you - big-gnome.com. If anything, we'll drink your beer and spread the word. I hate the "shameless plug," but I'm willing to do it because I'm passionate about supporting our craft beer community.

I LOVE THIS VIDEO! Wow. I got a tear in my eye and lump in my throat..... American Craft Brewers are the best in the world!

awesome compilation, though I'm burnt out on sigur ros as the go-to inspirational soundtrack. Proud to support my local brewery. mayflowerbrewing.com/index.htm

fantastic. I watched this 3 or 4 times in a row.

Excellent! Cheers!

Check out American Craft Beer Week everyone.

Great video and could not agree more on the content and what was stated. You need to put it out on National TV as a PSA to wake up more beer drinkers to what REAL beer is about. I'll drink one or two to ya!!

This is an outstanding piece of filmmaking. Would love to know more about the production. What kind of cameras and who did the editing? Fantastic work.

Somebody cut this video. The section on 'I helped brew one of these beers', and Koch's 'walk and talk' are missing. Why was this done?

great work on the video and audio and in particular the lighting is amazing. the content however...wow. They all come off sounding like blowhards...a real disappointment. There is nothing inherently wrong with corn or rice in a beer; it's all in how you use them. Corn has been used for a long time as a brewing and distilling grain and it's an essential grain of the New World. Rice is used in Japanese lagers for a complete fermentation to give a crisp finish. Does EVERY beer have to be a 1.075 OG and 57 IBU? What, we all have to follow the Reinheitsgebot now? This video reminds me of what's inherently wrong with the craft brew movement: wayyy too high on their work. If you make something that's good, let it speak for itself.

Not too high on their work at all, considering what they have given us. You want to see a movement too high on itself, try the BMC monstrosity. King of Beers my ass. lmfao

Need to have a Waving Beer flag in the Background. I love Good Beer and that is why I am a Homebrewer and a supporter of Craft Beer

It's about finding a good brew and if I that can happen for me by getting a brew that was made in my community that's a good feeling. Of central Iowa beer makers that I often consume include Court Ave Brewery, Raccoon Brewery, and Olde Main Brewery.

Wonderful! I LOVE craft beer.

THANK YOU, craft brewers.

Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. - Benjamin Franklin

Truly fantastic video, I loved it

Awesome! Truely amazing! Great job on the production/videography of this video, too! I've shared it with everyone I know.

I'm taking Friday off and driving over to Fearless Brewing just for their spectacular cream ale and IPA. Then I'm having folks over for BBQ and som homebrewed honey lager! After dinner we present a vertical tasting of Hair of the Dog's Doggie Claws for anyone interested in savoring this mana from Alan. We'll begin the evening with a viewing of this video and a salute to Stone for giving a voice to so many dedicated craft brewers. Salud!

I love craft beer, and I also love RICE/CORN in my beer. (Uh oh, I said it!) It doesn't have to be one or the other. When I'm on my couch watching a movie, I enjoy something with more taste, like a bock, an IPA, or an APA. At the ballgame, when I'm thirsty and want to pound a beer or two, or just want to be out all night, I'll order Bud/Bud Light. This is the major problem that I have with this video. They make it sound like it's got to be one or the other. These guys aren't going to convince me that there's something wrong with drinking American-style lager.

This is just brilliant, I am planning to use it in a presentation in the UK to show people exactly how proud we should be of our craft brewing movement too.

Great spot!

I will always support craft beers from Canada and the States when I'm down there travelling.

Fine work...its a testament to the script (and everyone's belief in the words) that everyone does such a good job on camera, even though many were shooting it themselves, with no "director". Did you tell them how to light, too?

Who is the brewer shown at minute 1:57?

Epic .. truly Epic!
