James Squire Guide To Beer

May 17, 2013 By Jay Brooks

australia
Today’s infographic is the James Squire Guide to Beer, created by the Malt Shovel Brewing Co. in Australia, though it appears to have “borrowed” rather liberally from the infographic created by Pete Slosberg for Pete’s Wicked Ales.

Extreme Ingredients

May 3, 2013 By Jay Brooks

beer-advocate-sq
Today’s infographic is from the Extreme Beer Festival that Beer Advocate puts on each year. It’s a cool flavor wheel showing many of the ingredients used in many extreme beers, and even has examples of beers using said ingredients in the outer ring of the wheel.

Glassware By Beer Style

May 1, 2013 By Jay Brooks

pint-glass-empty
Today’s infographic is a poster of the most common glassware for beer, with a list of styles below each glass that whoever created the poster believes would work best with each one. I’m not sure I agree with every choice, but at least some styles are listed with multiple glassware. That suggests that none of this is written in stone, which we all know, of course.

Gephi Dual Circle Beer Styles

April 23, 2013 By Jay Brooks

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).”

Beer Family Tree

April 20, 2013 By Jay Brooks

family-tree
Today’s infographic comes from the Syracuse Pos-Sentinel, as a part of their Syracuse Beer Week coverage. It’s a Beer Family Tree and shows ales, lagers and hybrids at the top of the tree, and moves down from there, though the tree doesn’t have too many branches. Still, it’s a good starting point for a newspaper.

Beer Style Chart: Beer Styles Compared

April 17, 2013 By Jay Brooks

beer-styles
Today’s infographic is an amazing chart of beer styles, but not a static one. The view below is simply the starting point of the Beer Style Chart, from there you can manipulate it and compare styles in a myriad of different ways. This great resource was created by the folks from Strange Brew, a Canadian software company that makes a homebrewing program. There’s also a generated chart that shows difference in the styles.

Pete’s Beer Style Spectrum

April 15, 2013 By Jay Brooks

petes
Today’s infographic is the third of three similar charts that Pete Slosberg created for Pete’s Wicked Ales. It shows popular beer styles (remember this was the late 80s) and where they fell on an x/y axis spectrum. It was one of the first great educational tools for explaining the variation in different beers, something that most people didn’t know anything about back then. This one I recall being on a pad, so you could just tear off copies of it.
