Definitions

  1. A large-scale commercial beer.

    • The pioneering Pennsylvania brewer Carol Stoudt attributes their hesitation to a megabrew backlash: “People who have had nothing but bland lagers for years want the extremes: heavy-handed hops, fruit beers, even smoked beers. […]
    • Local megabrew lagers, such as Spendrups, Pripps or Falcon, cost anywhere from Skr40 to Skr58 a pint, and imported beer or mixed drinks can be twice that.
