Most English* breweries (large and small) have historically had a brewery tap adjacent to the brewery, owned by the brewery which sells that brewery's beer. At the smaller end (http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/304814504) it'd qualify as a microbrewery, even though the beer's also available elsewhere, but at the larger (http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/403137224) it certainly wouldn't. *and quite possible elsewhere too of course. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

James Squire was once a microbrewery but is now well and truly a mass-market commercial beer. It's obviously still promoting itself as a microbrewery, but according to its website, there are 18 places in Victoria starting with A that sell it. I think maybe that working microbrewery they're referring to is making special brews, not their main line. So maybe it is actually a microbrewery/brewpub after all...although I was originally thinking otherwise. Could legiitmately be a commercial brewer operating microbreweries, under the same brand.

[OSM-talk] Announcing the Open Brewpub Map
Hi there, one of the big advantages of OSM is IMO the open tagging scheme. Thus I thought why not start a trivial project called Open Brewpub Map. This is in fact a connection of two of my hobbies (brewing and mapping) in some way :) As my experience in the OSM project shows people are mapping only stuff which is shown in a map somewhere. This is why I did not start the project without creating a map first. It is avaliable on: http://brewpubs.openstreetmap.de/ Currently the map is centered around the south western part of germany (where I live) and filled mostly with pubs where I have been myself but I hope this will change very soon now. Tagging is easy. Just add microbrewery=yes to the node or building area object of your local brewpub. This tagging Scheme has been added to the Wiki as well.
