Best Beer Bar
It's no easy task to choose just one beverage at these 20 bars, nominated as the best in the U.S. by a panel of beer experts. Each offers a stellar selection of draft and bottled beers, many with a focus on regional or Belgian selections.

Best Beer City
These 20 cities from across the United States were chosen by a panel of beer experts as having the best beer scenes in the nation – stellar selections of established and up-and-coming breweries, beer bars, brewpubs, beer festivals and even thriving homebrewing communities where novice brewers can get their foot in the door. We need your help choosing a winner.
Best Beer Festival
Beer festivals not only offer attendees the chance to sample numerous brews – sometimes even rare and one-off pours – these events also allow beer fans to get to know their favorite brewmasters, sample paired foods and learn all about beer and brewing. We asked a panel of beer experts to nominate their 20 favorite beer festivals in the U.S., and now we need your help picking a winner.
Best Beer Garden
Who doesn't love sipping a drink outside on a terrace or in a courtyard, surrounded by flowers and plants? Our panel of beer experts picked these 20 American beer gardens as the best spots to enjoy a beer outdoors.
Best Beer Label
Oftentimes our first impressions of a new beer, chosen out of the myriad options available, come from the branding. A good beer label stands out from the crowd, piques our curiosity and represents the beer behind the label. We asked a panel of experts to nominate 20 of their favorite labels, and we need you to pick a winner.
Best Brew Pub
What's better than a craft brewery? A craft brewery with an on-site bar where patrons can sit back, relax and enjoy a cold one. These 20 brewpubs, nominated as the best in the U.S. by a panel of beer experts, serve their own house beers, often alongside guest taps and a menu of tasty food options.
Best Brewery Tour
The only thing better than sipping a pint of your favorite brew is getting a behind-the-scenes look at where it's made. We asked a panel of beer experts to nominate their favorite brewery tours in the country, and now we need you to choose a winner.
Best Cidery
The popularity of cider as a beer alternative has exploded in the U.S. in recent years. According to Statista, there were more than 800 cider makers in the country as of 2018. We asked a panel of industry experts to nominate their 20 favorite cideries from coast to coast. Now it's your turn to choose the best.
Best New Brewery
Hundreds of craft breweries open in the United States every year. 10Best wants to find the best new breweries in the country, ones that opened in the past four years, so we asked a panel of beer experts to nominate their favorites. Now, we need you to pick a winner.
