What state do you see as being most synonymous with beer?

There are none with those parameters. When you refer to "many" and "most people" I assume you are referring to the general populace.

 

I think of Oregon or Colorado. Colorado's current governor co-founded the state's first brewpub, and both Oregon and Colorado are some of the top states in breweries per capita.

 

I don't think the average person is going to think beer first if any of our 50 states are mentioned.

 

ill play along. Wisconsin. When I hear Wisconsin, I think of beer. Maybe I do because of Old Milwaukee. Idk. I've never been there.

 

Colorado comes to mind. I might think that only because I have heard casuals/bmc drinkers talk about Coors, New Belgium, and the GABF more so than other stuff.

 

Wisconsin.

 

Belgium

 

For craft beer, I think California or Vermont.

 

After living across the sound from Seattle for nearly five years, I immediately think Washington. California comes in a close second, though.

 

South Dakota.

 

Bavaria

 

A state of happiness?

 

Wisconsin and Milwaukee in particular. I mean, Schlitz is the beer that made Milt Famey walk us.

 

Craft beer - Colorado
Beer - Wisconsin
IPAs - California

 

State of mind !

 

Wisconsin makes me think of fat people, bratwurst, and cheese.

Colorado makes me think of weed and skiing.

No state make me think of beer first.

 

Vermont has more breweries per capita in the USofA. So maybe them, but I have never even met anybody from Vermont so I don't really think of the state to often.

 

I think old countries that have LONG beer histories. OF course I buy books on beer history. thanks Ronald and Martyn, et al.

I guess for the USA its St Louis and bud. So I guess that is Missouri.

I think Boston beer for craft. So thanks Mass.
