Brewery Twitter List for D.C., Maryland, & Virginia.

AS OF 30 NOVEMBER 2015,
THIS LIST
WILL NO LONGER BE UPDATED.

As of November, 2015, there were one hundred sixty-four (164) breweries in the Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia conurbation posting updates to Twitter.

• The actual number of area breweries is higher (~191), as several did not maintain Twitter accounts.
• In addition, there are forty-six (46) 'tweeting' breweries in the region that are either under construction, in planning, or open but not yet brewing or shipping.
• When this list was first begun, in May 2009, there were far fewer breweries in the 'DMV' region, and only two were 'on' Twitter.
