Beer. It does a body good.

I love beer.
I just can't help it.
I do.

From it's frothy goodness to it's beauty shades of colour, I just love a wonderfully brewed beer.

The taste of malted barley and hops just makes this girl smile.

This past spring I started a craft brewery tour of Ontario, and finally finished it last month. It was such a bitter sweet moment to step foot in the last brewery, since I started the tour with someone who is no longer with us. My best friend and I honored his memory and finished out the tour, partly for the beer and partly to mend our souls.

I was so happy to see this wonderful map called "The United States of Good Beer" and am pleased to announced that I am starting another craft brewery tour this summer with some new friends who share my beer passion. It might take us a little longer to complete, but the printed copy is hanging on my office wall, ready to be tackled by car, train or plane.

If beer is something you fancy from time to time, and your ever in the U S of A, take along this handy map and enjoy your travels and your beer.

GOOD asked their readers “What is the most awesome, best-tasting, sustainably brewed, independently owned, community-oriented craft beer brewed in your state?”. The result is The United States of GOOD Beer.
