No, breweries are not insanely profitable. You might think that they are if you simply look at grain to glass and forget about everything in between.
Those in between parts are real estate/rent, equipment, chemicals, packaging costs (equipment, labor, consumables), employees, taproom expenses, marketing, and finally, the worst, distribution expenses.
