This is why we have trust issues …

We're pretty spoiled in Colorado, land of the delicious handcrafted microbrew. But since the sales for big beer companies have taken a hit because of smaller companies doin' it for themselves, the multibillion-dollar giants have been scooping up smaller breweries, keeping the "small, handcrafted" image and cranking out millions of bottles. And when the smaller companies tried to sue the behemoths over the use of the phrase, you can probably guess what happened.

So the only thing you can do, is arm yourself with knowledge. Thanks to this handy list, you'll never again be tricked into buying something "small batch and artisanally crafted" when in reality it's churned out by a faceless corporation by the tanker-full. 

Knowledge is power!
