Jay R. Brooks on Beer
Thursday’s ad is for Senate Beer and Ale, a brand made by the Olde Heurich Brewery of Washington, D.C. back in the day. Back in the day, in this case, means 1942. It’s curious that there’s no beer at all depicted in the ad, just the lovely woman staring at us.
Today’s infographic shows Annual Beer Consumption Per State Per Capita, based on data from 2009. It was created to answer the question of whether or not there “is there a link between climate and beer consumption?” If you’ll pardon the pun, the results seem allover the map, so I’d have to conclude that the answer is “no.”
Okay, be warned, this isn’t for the easily offended and it’s somewhat juvenile and more than a little lascivious. But it’s also funny. You also do have to stick with it all the way to the end. And remember, I did warn you.
