If you want to see the strength of America’s beer industry, you may want to look past beverage giants like Anheuser-Busch and MillerCoors. According to the Brewers Association, nearly 2,000 American brewers operated during 2011 — the most since the 1880s.

The beast in the photo is Rocky, a 40-inch lobster that was caught in Maine. He was released back into the wild yesterday.

He weighed a ridiculous 27 pounds (12.2kg) at the time of his capture.

That’s roughly the size of a 3-year-old child.

Love when Maine makes the national news!
