US Breweries

Context

While brainstorming ideas for a statistics project for a course last semester, the idea of utilizing data about microbreweries came up. Unfortunately after some exploration and thought, we scrapped the idea, but I've got this data to show for it anyway.

Content

Data was acquired from https://www.beermonthclub.com/ and contains information about breweries available on the site as of October 1st, 2019. Name, type of brewery, address, website, and state are among the data included.

Code used to scrape is available at https://github.com/brkurzawa/brewpub-scraper

Acknowledgements

Thanks to beermonthclub for allowing the /brewpub section to be scraped.

Inspiration

This data alone isn't too inspiring, but maybe it could be used as the basis for an analysis project that looks at information such as yelp reviews, or number of links to a brewery's website.
