Here's a map, courtesy of SloshSpot, of brewery density per capita in these United States:
As a native Montanan, I'm not surprised we're high on the leaderboard. We've got the right mix of beer drinkin' country folks and microbrewing transplants from the West Coast. Maine, Vermont, and Oregon more or less fit that profile as well.
I was at first surprised to see that the South doesn't have more brewing, but then I realized that they are likely "brewing" something else down there.
Written and compiled by staff writers and editors, GOVERNING View is an on-the-ground, and sometimes behind-the-scenes, look at the topics we're covering in print and online. From notes on what's up in statehouses, county courthouses and city halls, to encounters with people, places and things, GOVERNING View is a window into the side of state and local government you don't always see.
