… and when do people drink it?
… what styles do people drink?
… are the more popular beers rated highly?
… are there other differences between the
US and the EU?
Untappd• Untappd is fairly popular
• Particularly large US cities
• (Chicago, New York)
• Popularity in EU variable
• (London high, Paris low)
Beer Diversity• High numbers of beers in city != high user diversity
• Diversity = abundance + variety
• Spikes + uneveness = low diversity
• London: high beers, low user diversity
• San Jose: lower beers: high user diversity
Beer Strength
• London & Dublin - lower beer strength than elsewhere
• California higher
Popularity
• Global popularity = big brands & breweries
• Local popularity = smaller local breweries
Time
• Beer is mainly drunk in the evenings
• Except at the weekend!
• Or in London!
• Beer is not more popular on the weekend in Paris
Styles
• Globally: ales win, then lagers
• Locally: variable
• Often ‘local’ ales are more popular
Ratings
• Beers with more checkins tend to have a higher rating
• US are more generous than EU with ratings
• or is US beer better? (:-O)
What next?• Social Network analysis
• homophily
• beer spread (epidemic?)
• network growth
• Binge drinking
• Beer festivals/event detection
