I'm born and raised in Pittsburgh, currently live here, but still love the Asheville, NC area much more for beer and such. I would almost make the same argument for Harper's Ferry area...

Any city that trucks can deliver to will jave good beer if there aren't breweries nearby.

columbus has far more breweries - i think it’s like 3rd in the nation (or was?). i guess the rankings were kind of weird, though - based on per 100k residents and prices.

Part of it was based on price per beer as well, which I found interesting. I've never been to Asheville, but I've heard from some people that all the breweries there can be a bit overwhelming, like it's a bit more quantity than quality.

i guess i just don’t see how having slightly cheaper beer makes it a “beer town”? not a dis on pgh at all, just odd.

No wonder Pittsburgh is #1 🤣
