What if this were easily seen from a map?

You could mouse over the western US and see results of recent fests like this, top regional beers of the last 90 days and recent releases by top brewers?


I guess if it were on an existing map, that’d help. If I were interested in what was had or rated at an event, I’d just rather look at a specific person’s beer ratings though. If I didn’t know anybody who went, I probably wouldn’t care what was had at the festival, but that’s just me.

I think we’re talking about different things.

The idea is not to show you something specific related to an event.

It’s a bigger problem! That problem is finding good, new and interesting beers. We have a lot of the atomic information needed to solve that info coming into the database. So how do we formulate it in a way that produces a valuable array of items worth checking out?

This might not even be set of lists. But a group of pictures (or not pictures) of likely hits available in each region.
