As with last year, the popularity of craft beer continues to have an impact on the list with new entries from a few craft brewers nationwide. Also similar to last year’s list, the cut-off point for the Top 100 list remains $20 million in global net beverage sales. The median standards of the list continue to rise as last year’s midpoint ranked at $285 million, and this year energy shot-manufacturer Living Essentials ranks halfway on the list with an estimated $325 million in sales.
