Beer

About

Beer is the most popular drink in the world, after water and tea. It is also an extremely “place-based” drink. Brands like Guinness or Sam Adams define cities and even countries. This Initiative will seek to organize a global community to map the history of the founding of every beer brewery in the world.

Components

For now, only beer breweries. We expand later to distribution sites, agricultural input sites, etc

General Approach

Were still working out what the Attribute table will be, but it will likely include: Brewery_Name, Brewery_Founder(s), Owning_Company, Feature_Beer_Type, Capacity_Type (nano, micro, macro)
