megabrews
Giant brewery output
Megabrews are beers produced by the largest multinational brewing corporations, typically characterized by mass production, wide distribution, and light, inoffensive flavor profiles designed for broad appeal.
The term often carries a dismissive tone among craft beer enthusiasts, who contrast their artisanal products with the uniformity of Budweiser, Coors, and other megabrews.
It can also refer to the companies themselves or their market dominance.
