"Every beer has the potential to have a huge impact. But the beers on this list go further than just helping you get the courage to hit on somebody out of your league. These American beers have had a huge impact on beer itself, and in turn, our pot-bellied nation. From trend-setters to game-changers, micro to macro, here are 30 beers that changed America. Each sip is a little bit of beer history.
Editor's Note: We opted with this list to include only beers that are currently brewed. With respect to John Wagner's lager, Ballantine, Red Dog, and whatever beers the revolutionaries were drinking while planning a war in historic bars, we want you to be able to find these beers if you so desire."
