From Fuggles Brewing in Richmond BC
(They used to be called Fuggles & Warlock, liked that name better).
Nothing wrong with this beer, nothing great either. So So

I can't help but think our own @beerking would have managed to guzzle it:

Do note the only comment from the emlpoyee: "I had to get a sneak peak [sic] of how good the beer tasted,”

I <ahem> know some guys brewing a Belgian Strong Dark with a new set of pumps that might have had a line open and watched fluid dynamics occur as 10 gallons of wort was siphoned up the tube and out into the driveway ...

 

[Marplot]

But 3 years later it is still funny because 3 people saw 3 different things ..
"Guys we have a big problem" (looking at the empty kettle)
"The valve is closed"
"Found it" as he points to the wort flowing down the driveway.

Sure, it was the $60 Belgian Strong Dark instead of the $20 ESB but if you can't laugh at yourself what fun is it?

Apparently Hop Valley originates in Eugene OR but this example was brewed under license by Creemore Springs in Creemore Ontario.
It’s OK, unlike many IPAs I’d buy it again, though I suspect the original version from Oregon would beat it.

enjoying this west coaster courtesy of my Chicago based kiddos. Real nice ( BTW - web photo )
Maplewood Brewing btw

Hopewell from Chicago - Alpha Betical. This is a collab beer with Hop Butcher out of Chicago also. Alphabetical is a Lupo Lager featuring Strata hops. A weighty base of Pilsner malt sets the stage for big pops of flavor. It's quite tasty ! Ill go 8.5 on a 10 scale

Vitamin Sea Brewing out of Massachusetts. Nautical Terms is the beer. Not sure how this one landed in my beer fridge but Im glad it did !!

Weird, as there seems to be not much of a pattern. I can see Utah being as low as it is, and Nevada being as high as it is, but that's about it.

On overlay of which states are controlled / how states control might contribute to some of the numbers.

I'll bet that the beer consumed at just the Packer's games is almost as much consumed all year in Oklahoma.
