Insightful article in Business Week that validates what we already see out there:

Craft Beer is huge.  The 1,600 little breweries we have in this country have increased the sales of craft beer by 12 percent in the first half of the year, all while the volume of beer sold overall is down 2.7 percent.

The Brewers Association’s statement:

“There is a movement by beer lovers to the innovative and flavorful beers created by America’s small and independent craft brewers,” association director Paul Gatza said in a statement. “More people are starting to think of craft-brewed beer first when they buy in restaurants, bars and stores.”
