On Long Island, Kickstarter is often about alcohol, reports Innovate LI

Long Islanders are cashing in on the wildly popular fundraising site Kickstarter, and the region's biggest hits are outpacing the average campaign, according to a report from InnovateLI, a site that covers the economy in Nassau and Suffolk counties.

The report said that among the top 12 Long Island-based campaigns, half of them more than doubled their goal, and all beat what it said most Kickstarter campaigns raise, which is between $1,000 and $19,999.

Among the local campaigns: Lithology Brewing Co. Campaign to Expand Beer Production, Moustache Brewing Co. and Condzella Hops. Do you see the pattern?

All three raised more than $30,000.
