Portland, Oregon, USA

Portland holds the record for the most craft breweries per capita, with over 80 operating within city limits, earning its nickname "Beervana." The Oregon Brewers Festival each July is one of North America's largest, and breweries like Deschutes and Breakside lead the American craft revolution. Portland's brewery density is 30% higher than the average of other top U.S. cities, and its craft production volume is 20% lower than #1 Munich's output, yet its innovation in hoppy ales sets a new benchmark for the style.
