MLB Stadium Beer Price Report

April 1, 2013 By Jay Brooks

baseball
Today’s infographic is from Save on Brew showing the MLB Stadium Beer Price Breakdown. Although it’s from 2012, the prices are probably similar, even if they’ve likely gone up a bit. But since it’s opening day for this year’s baseball season, now is a good time to start saving since the prices at games are so outrageously overpriced.

The Triple Distilled Diagram of Alcohols

March 30, 2013 By Jay Brooks

alcohol
Today’s infographic is entitled The Triple Distilled Diagram of Alcohols, and was created by Pop Chart Labs, who describe their work like so:

A boozy chart of every variety of alcohol, from fermented concoctions such as beer and wine to distilled delights such as a gin and rum, this print features everything from favorites like wine and vodka to less lauded tipples such as caium and arrack, all pressed in copper metal inks.

24 Things You Didn’t Know About Beer

March 29, 2013 By Jay Brooks

cheers-to-24
Today’s infographic is entitled 24 Things You Didn’t Know About Beer, although at first glance it’s really 23. That’s because their very first one, the Ben Franklin quote that’s been thoroughly discredited years ago, continues to show up everywhere. I’d like to believe that Franklin wouldn’t mind being credited with the quote, but unfortunately the historical record appears to be utterly void of any record he ever said it and that it’s ore likely it was an opportunistic borrowing of another statement he said in a letter to a friend about wine. It’s a shame that’s how they start out, because there’s some interesting ones that follow, even if a majority of beer geeks probably knew most, if not all of them.

Salty Dog’s Michael Jackson Tribute Cartoon

March 27, 2013 By Jay Brooks

jackson
I came across this cartoon by Bill Coleman for his strip Salty Dog beer comics that he apparently did in 2007, presumably shortly after Michael passed away, as tribute, and so I saved it to run on Michael’s birthday today. Enjoy.

Learn The Language Of Beer

March 26, 2013 By Jay Brooks

beer-word
Today’s infographic is entitled Learn the Language of Beer, which was created by Pimsleur Approach, an online language website. It’s pretty basic information and overly general in some place, but eh, at least they’re trying.
