Philadelphia’s Top Selling Beer Brands

March 12th, 2018

At Bell Beverage, beer is our passion. We know that’s something we share with many of our fellow Philadelphians, so we thought you might want to know about last year’s top-selling craft beers! Out of the over 1500 different beer brands we stock, these ten sold better than the rest:

The Top Ten Most Popular Craft Beers

  • Bell’s “Two Hearted”

This American style, India pale ale is rated outstanding on Beer Advocate. Hailing from Michigan, it’s brewed with 100% centennial hops and has tasting notes of pine and grapefruit.

  • Founders “All-Day”

Founders’ “All-day IPA” is a crisp and satisfying beer with citrus aromas. With a taste this refreshing, it’s no wonder it’s one of our most popular beers.

  • Sam Adams

Mostly known for their craft lagers, Samuel Adams aspires to make their brews as revolutionary as their namesake.

  • Goose Island

While the original brewery is in Chicago, we’re glad to carry Goose Island beer. Year round, they brew pale ales, a pilsner, an urban wheat ale, and their famous Goose IPA

On to the Local Brews…

  • Victory Brewing

Founded in Downingtown, PA, Victory Brewing has been crafting delicious brews since 1996. They always have a variety of creative flavors on tap.

  • Yards

It’s no surprise Yards Brewing Co. made the list. They brew some of the best ales in the Philadelphia area. Stop by to try their Brawler, Pynk, Pale Ale, and many more.

  • Evil Genius

If you’re looking for an interesting new beer with a witty name, this is your brand. Some fan favorites are Bye Felicia, Hold Me Closer Tony Danza, and Pure Evil Chocolate Stout.

  • Sly Fox

Long-time Pennsylvania favorite Sly Fox brews a variety of year-round beers. Check out Incubus (their Abbey style trippel), O’Reilly’s Stout, or 360 IPA.

  • Dogfish Head

Whether you’re looking at their 120 minute IPA, Bitches Brew, or Truth Serum, you can’t go wrong with a casual Dogfish Head beer.

  • Flying Fish

Over the bridge in Somerdale, NJ, Flying Fish is busy brewing up some of the most delicious beer in the area. We recommend trying their Extra Pale Ale, American Trippel, or Blueberry Braggot.
