Breweries are some of the best places to sit back, relax, and chit-chat with some friends while enjoying a fresh ale.

Each brewery has its own unique feel, but some are among the nation's hottest right now. Just in time for National Drink A Beer Day, Thrillist released a list of the hottest breweries around America and one of them is located right here in Missouri.

The list has a variety of breweries ranging from "old-school favorites making new waves to up-and-comers offering destination-worthy pours."

So, which Missouri brewery is considered to be a hot commodity in the states?

Side Project Brewing in St. Louis.

Here is what Thrillist had to say about Side Project Brewing:

"Though owner/brewer Cory King says he's an old man in brewing terms, demand for his barrel-aged creations is as strong as it was when the brewery became its own self-contained business—a side project no longer. The brewery produces barrel-aged stouts, with a return of the vaunted Beer:Barrel:Time, an adjunct-free bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout. Side Project has even spawned its own offshoot called Shared, an outlet for its brewers to develop new recipes for non-barrel-aged beers."
