Published

On the brands map, one noticeable trend is the dominance of Corona in the Eastern and Southern states. In fact, Corona claims the top spot in a total of 21 states. Modelo, on the other hand, has a strong presence in the west, with 7 states choosing it as their favorite brand. This is no surprise considering the Hispanic influence of those regions.

It’s interesting to see how regional preferences play a role in the popularity of certain beer brands and how American-made beers don’t have as much of a hold as you might expect. While Budweiser may be a nationwide staple, it’s clear that imports such as Corona and Modelo Especial hold a special place in the hearts (and beer fridges) of many Americans.

On the first map, specifically about types of beer by state, ale appears to dominate across the nation from coast to coast. One exception is the Midwestern states such as Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa, Indiana, and Missouri where stouts take the top spot. I’d imagine this is likely due to the harsh winters the area is known for. The Northwestern United States prefers Pale Ale and Pilsner but sticks with the nationwide trend of light beers being the favorite.

I absolutely love the header! It’s unique, dynamic, and vibrant! The world map is informative, but my favorite part of this chart is the second visualization. I am not sure what this type of data viz is called – please let me know in the comments if you know! It really helps to convey just how much association football (soccer) dominates the world, but it also gives cricket, baseball, rugby, and basketball opportunities to shine. I want to visit Anguilla and witness boat racing at its finest – it is the country’s official national sport, after all! Cricket is the second most popular sport in the world, which makes me wonder – is America missing out? We should start a petition to bring cricket to the United States!
