5. TrimTab Brewing Co.
Birmingham, Alabama, United States
We craft beers of balance and celebrate the small, unassuming sources that create large-scale positive change - the trim tab. Boom. Whats a trim tab you say? Look no further than the words of a genius published in a 1972 Playboy..... “Something hit me very hard once, thinking about what one little man could do. Think of the Queen Mary [an ocean liner]— the whole ship goes by and then comes the rudder. And there's a tiny thing at the edge of the rudder called a trim tab. It's a miniature rudder. Just moving the little trim tab builds a low pressure that pulls the rudder around. Takes almost no effort at all. So I said that the little individual can be a trim tab. Society thinks it's going right by you, that it's left you all together. But if you're doing dynamic things mentally, the fact is that you can just put your foot out like that and the whole big ship of state is going to go. So I said, call me Trim Tab.” Small actions - Huge positive impact. We champion that concept and the ways it occurs throughout our world, through each of us. We are proud to call ourselves Alabama brewers. We are Trim Tab Brewing.

22. Goat Island Brewing
Cullman, Alabama, United States
On the day of April 27th, 2011, Cullman, Alabama was turned upside down. While devastation hit hard, something was brewing in the midst of destruction. An old high school friendship rekindled and the passion for making good beer was sparked. Our two brew masters had a solid reputation of homebrewing, designing new beers, and perfecting the American and German classics. When the two began to collaborate and brew together, magic happened and the synergy took their beer recipes to a new level. You could call it a true brewmance (bromance with brews). Behind the scenes stood the rest of the brew crew. Disguised as a rocket scientist, a geologist, an insurance agent, and a cop, these four beer connoisseurs came together and decided it was time to share the love with others. What started out as a simple fantasy was in the process of becoming reality. New beer was invented, dreams were fueled, and plans were made to birth something this town had never seen since the 1800s: a craft brewery. Goat Island Brewing was established in early 2015 on a foundation of friendship and a firm belief that it is never too late to go after your dream. So before you begin to cast your judgement, these old goats know good beer and invite you to experience with them how “Life is too short to drink baaad beer!”

Wives tales, tall tales, stories from our youth–it's about preserving and passing on our heritage to the next generations. Our creative outlet is beer, but our reach extends to all parts of our community: charities, animal rescue's, military veterans, and taking care of our fellow man is why our mantra has become, "It's the Beer That Binds Us."
