A guy who works for a company that makes custom labels – including beer labels, thought I’d find the above beer map of the United States interesting.
Yes I do.
Although it’s a shame they chose Coors Light to represent Colorado. And what’s up with Arkansas?
This is awesome. Thanks.
Huh, I didn’t know SD had a local brew…
Assembling the map would be easy but I wonder too what’s up with Arkansas.
Well, there is at least one brewery in Arkansas–

And according to their website, a 2006 gold medal winning brew is in their fleet of beers…or is that a flite. 🙂
Any map that does not use Yuengling for PA is junk. Oldest brewery in America and dare I say the best beer too.
Thanks for the map, Ed. I may have to make it my mission to drink a beer from every state, even Arkansas!
I had a pint of Shiner Bock at Laredos in SLP….tasted like soap.
I think the picture is just a screengrab of the flash version, which is broken, not showing Arkansas, Delaware, or Rhode Island (you can see them if you click on the state).
It looks like maybe DC is beerless.
Now I can travel the country in my living room! Thanks, Ed.
P.S. Anybody got a favorite Schell’s beer? Mine’s Firebrick.
a former Houstonian now living in Arkansas can tell you whats up with Arkansas. From the Oklahoma state line down to the Loiusiana state line and all points in between Hot Springs and Texarkana, there is only TWO places you can actually go to buy retail beer… Hot Springs and Texarkana… in fact I think statewide, that only leaves Fort Smith, Fayetteville, Jonesburough and Little Rock as the other places where it’s possible…the rest of the state is DRY DRY DRY.. I’ve lived in 2 counties so far and it was 24 miles round trip in each one for a cool sip of beer… the only thing that gets brewed in this state is “Shine” and we all know how our BIG government feels about that. ..
PA looks be using Victory Brewing, which does make better beer than Yeungling.
could also be Stoudt’s not quite sure.
Here’s an entry for Little Rock, Arkansas. The Pale Ale is excellent if you can get your hands on it.
