United States of Beer

Week after week I promise myself to post another review but January was so packed with other obligations that I couldn't get out of that finally I was only able to make one. I am rethinking the video reviews. Hope you can be patient once again. In the meantime I want to show you something really nice.

Today I found (@ Cool Infographics) a really cool beer map of United States. It represents GABF medal awards for breweries in different states.



The map was made by Mike Wirth for Lyke2Drink blog (another thing that I found today).
