Now, when I say several breweries, I actually mean there are fifty-eight breweries that call Utah home. Yes, you read that correctly, fifty-eight breweries call Utah home, and one of those is located in Cedar City.

Before I tell you about Cedar City’s brewery, let’s find out a bit more about beer.

Beer has been around for a very long time. From the Smithsonian Magazine archeologist Patrick McGovern "Has identified the world’s oldest known barley beer (from Iran’s Zagros Mountains, dating to 3400 B.C.), the oldest grape wine (also from the Zagros, circa 5400 B.C.) and the earliest known booze of any kind, a Neolithic grog from China’s Yellow River Valley brewed some 9,000 years ago".

There are several different types of beer. The ale types include Pale Ale, Real Ale, and Mild Ale. There are also Stouts, Lambic, and Lager.
