## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Brewery Finder Scraper — Names, Addresses & Contacts

Find **breweries worldwide** and export a clean, structured directory. Search by keyword or filter by city, state and type — and get one row per brewery with name, type, full address, GPS coordinates, phone and website. Export to **JSON, CSV or Excel**, or pull straight from the API.

Perfect for **lead generation, local business directories, travel and beer guides, market research, mapping, and building location datasets**.

***

### What you get

One flat, ready-to-use record per brewery:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `id` / `name` | Brewery ID and name |
| `breweryType` | micro, brewpub, regional, large, contract… |
| `address` / `address2` | Street address |
| `city` / `state` / `postalCode` / `country` | Location |
| `latitude` / `longitude` | GPS coordinates |
| `phone` | Phone number |
| `websiteUrl` | Website |
| `query` | The search that produced the row |
| `collectedAt` | When the row was scraped |

***

### How to use

```json
{
  "searchQueries": ["dogfish"],
  "city": "portland",
  "state": "oregon",
  "breweryType": "micro",
  "maxItems": 500
}
```

- **Search keywords** — free-text search by name or place (each keyword runs its own search).
- **City / State / Brewery type** — filters used when no keywords are given.
- **Max breweries** — cap the total (0 = no limit).

***

### Example output

```json
{
  "name": "10 Barrel Brewing Co",
  "breweryType": "large",
  "address": "1501 E St",
  "city": "San Diego",
  "state": "California",
  "postalCode": "92101-6618",
  "country": "United States",
  "latitude": 32.714813,
  "longitude": -117.129593,
  "phone": "6195782311",
  "websiteUrl": "http://10barrel.com",
  "collectedAt": "2026-09-20T23:40:00.000Z"
}
```

***

### Common use cases

- **Lead generation** — build targeted lists of breweries with phone and website.
- **Local directories & maps** — plot breweries by city/state with coordinates.
- **Travel & beer guides** — assemble brewery lists for a region.
- **Market research** — analyse brewery types and density by area.
- **Datasets** — build clean location datasets for analysis.

***

### Frequently asked questions

**Do I need any login, account or key?** No. Just search or filter and run.

**Can I filter by city and state?** Yes — leave keywords empty and set the City / State filters.

**Does it include contact details?** Yes — phone and website URL where available, plus GPS coordinates.

**How many breweries can I get?** Set **Max breweries** to whatever you need (0 = no limit) — the scraper pages through results.

**What format is the data?** A flat table you can export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or fetch from the Apify API.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "searchQueries": [
        "dog"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("hipersoft/openbrewery-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

  "searchQueries": [
    "dog"
  ]
}' |
apify call hipersoft/openbrewery-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
