Anchor’s “Steam Beer Billy”

Anchor Brewing released a fun three-part story over the past few days on their blog, pieced together by resident historian Dave Burkhart. The story, “Steam Beer Billy,” is a true story that was told in the San Francisco newspapers in 1898, 115 years ago. The story concerns William “Yankee” Sullivan and his pet goat, Jack, both apparently big fans of Steam Beer, and their exploits that began on New Year’s Eve and ended several days later, when Sullivan was finally out of jail and reunited with Jack.
Part one ran on Wednesday, part two yesterday, and part three finished off their tale today. Enjoy.

DIY: Build Your Own Mug Of Beer

You’ve probably heard of origami, the Japanese art of paper folding, and a few years ago I wrote about the newer Japanese craze of 3D paper models known as “paper craft” in Japanese Paper Beer. I just came across another one, this time it’s a paper mug of beer — called “Mr. Beer” or “Beer-Kun” — that you can download and build for yourself. If you’re looking for a project or something to do this weekend, here you go. Go to either Tamasoft or Cheek Patch to see the steps and also where you can find a link to the pdf to download as a pdf. Both websites are in Japanese but can easily be translated with the right browser.
This is what it should look like when you’re done.

After you download the zip file, print out the pdf and then carefully cut out all of the pieces. You should then have all of these separate pieces, ready to build your mug. Have fun.

Sh!t Beer Geeks Say

Here’s a hilarious video from Down Under. Sh!t Beer Geeks Say is a video produced by the folks putting on Good Beer Week, an Australian beer week centered around Melbourne and Victoria, and also the Bridge Road Brewers. I especially love that Vinnie’s “Lupulin Threshold Shift” made it into the list of phrases used in the video.
Gephi Dual Circle Beer Styles

Today’s infographic is pretty cool. It was created as design exercise, by Kris Erickson on his blog, EricksonData. It’s what he refers to as a Gephi Viz, this time with beer data. He used the bottled beers listed in the BreweryDB, “and filtered out many of the smaller US brewers (according to number of beers entered into BreweryDB).”
