The number of operating craft breweries in America continued to climb in 2023, reaching an all-time high of 9,761. The total U.S. operating brewery count was 9,906, up from 9,824 in 2022. Throughout the year, there were 495 new brewery openings and 418 closings.

Over two in five (41%) have been asked that question by others. Hence, the crowd is inclined toward products that look and taste like beer rather than actual alcohol. North America remains the dominant market with steady growth because countries like the USA and Canada are driven by both alcoholic and non-alcoholic variants. Because of the growing population, the expansion of bars and restaurants, the growing acceptance of Western culture, and the relaxation of laws and regulations, North America leads the root beer market.
