Two Michigan craft breweries have been really pumping out the beer in recent years.
Shorts Brewing Co. and New Holland Brewing Co. were both recognized by Inc. Magazine on its 2010 list of the 5,000 fastest-growing private U.S. companies.
Shorts ranked No. 720 on the list. The Bellaire, Mich.-based brewer has grown its revenue over the past three years by 422 percent, according to the magazine. In 2009, its revenue was $2.4 million. It was also the highest ranked brewery on the list. Here's how the magazine describes the company:
"Shorts Brewing produces lagers and ales, often with unusual ingredients, such as its Goober Oatmeal Stout, which has a handful of peanuts in every glass. The company is focused on quality and experimentation, often representing its state in national competitions. One of Michigan's largest breweries, Shorts has a production facility in Elk Rapids and a pub and brewery in Bellaire."
That's nice recognition for the company behind such delicious brews as Noble Chaos and Huma-Lupa-Licious.
Holland, Mich.-based New Holland makes the 2010 list at No. 2,418, with three-year revenue growth of 101 percent. The brewer and distiller had 2009 revenue of $5.6 million, according to the magazine.
