Happy International Women's Day!

What better way to celebrate than to crack open a beer made by a female brewer or a woman-owned brewery? This is by no means a complete list, but what I was able to compile while waiting for a flight home from North Carolina:

*Yeah, I know you can't get this beer in KC, but it's worth mentioning anyway due to the popularity/scale of the brewery.

Prost!
