If you really want to help stimulate the economy, it could be as easy as grabbing a beer.

A new study shows beer contributes $1.2 billion to Nevada's economy each year.

The National Beer Wholesalers Association said the beer industry also generates more than 15,000 jobs in the state.

Nationally, beer contributes nearly $200 billion annually to the U.S. economy and provides nearly 2 million jobs.
