Lexington's Craft Brews
The newest branch of Agritourism to establish a strong presence in Lexington’s downtown is the Micro-Brewery. These “craft” brewers use locally grown products and employ members of the local community. As these breweries expand their influence, a “Beer Culture” is being created as they continue to produce quality products and provide gathering spaces for social events. The following is a list of brewers and sellers of these craft beers:
