The Great American Craft Beer Road Trip

A 12,299-mile journey through 70 of the best breweries in the U.S.

There are many ways to do the great American road trip. You could, for instance, follow in the footsteps of your literary heroes. Or track the temperate path of 70-degree weather. Or—and this is one I’ve been meaning to do—you could drive cross-country hitting up every city mentioned in your favorite songs.

After watching the movie Chef, though, I’ve tweaked my road trip dream. Now I want to travel across America in search of hole-in-the-wall restaurants that offer the country’s most delicious food and drink—like Guy Fiery, but romantic. To help nudge my epicurean hopes along, the kind folks at FlowingData just released a road trip map based on the best breweries in the country.
