The Brews

HD-2 channel "97.7 The Brew" is an Adult Hits station in Asheville, North Carolina.  They are also heard on WKSF's translator station W249AR.  The station says they're named for the area's large number of craft beer breweries.  Asheville has over 20 microbreweries per 100,000 residents, placing it as the third highest rate per capita of all cities in the US.



 KFBW "105.9 The Brew" is a Rock station heard in Portland, Oregon and licensed to Vancouver, Washington.  Portland comes in sixth on the most microbreweries per resident list.



KBRU "94.7 The Brew" plays Rock music in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  OKs capital doesn't appear on any national craft beer stat lists.  Get your act together, OKC.

All three of these stations are owned by iHeart Media which also owns Brew-branded outlets in Michigan, Wisconsin and West Virginia.
