microbrew
Small-batch beer
Microbrew refers to beer produced by a small, independent brewery—typically one making limited quantities with emphasis on quality and distinctive flavor rather than mass-market appeal.
The term emerged in the 1980s as craft brewing grew: The bar features twenty microbrews on tap.
As a verb, to microbrew is to produce such beer.
The brewery itself is a microbrewery.
