If you're a statistics and infographics lover as I am, then you should check Cool Infographics blog to have your regular treat. If you're also a beer maniac then this cool poster will make you happy.
Mike Wirth calls himself a designer, educator and artist and with good reasons! He does his art starting from statistics to create a good looking and striking way to present data concerning different domains.
In this case it's beer.
It happens that he collected data from Great American Beer Festival medal winners (1987-2008) and used them to update the original 2008 map with new helpful charts to show the best and worst breweries divided for each state of the Union based upon the number of medals won. So you discover that if you plan a beer cultural trip, then Colorado, California and Wisconsin are the 3 top states you wanna visit. Always according to the map you should spare time by avoiding Oklahoma, Lousiana, Missisipi and the Dakotas unless you want to discover some hidden treasure overlooked by the festival jury. Another interesting graphics are the histograms showing the best American breweries with each bar as the composition of the amounts of bronze, silver and gold medals won.
Great work Mike!
