The Beer Institute (are there any research positions available?) has released a map charting each U.S. state’s annual beer consumption, and, naturally, it’s become a viral Internet hit. It doesn’t come as much of a surprise, since this is the kind of map everyone wishes they could’ve studied in high school history classes. But what is surprising is the state whose 21+ population consumed the most alcohol in 2008: Montana. What’s going on out there, and why am I not going to school there?
(Click on the map to see it large and in charge.)
Where does your state fall?

Uhmm nothing else to do in montana? I go to school at MSU and it’s huge for snowboarding, skiing, River Rafting etc. There’s tons of mtns. and MT is known widely for it’s outdoor sports. So get out more Eliz.
But yesss along with great scenery there are some monster parties that go down here and I’ve never had a better drinking time anywhere (except at some great parties in Florida)!

Boston alone has greater beer consumption per capita than Montana. This map is inaccurate.

yeah MSU! Pretty much all we do here is ski and hike and raft…we just do it all with a beer in one hand, that’s all!

Thanksgiving is less than a week away. That means you’ve got six days to hit the gym and eat healthfully in an attempt to make up for the massive amounts of fat, sugar and tryptophan about to hit your bloodstream. (Unless you’re currently single, in which case you’re probably mainlining cake frosting at this very moment.) I’m getting sleepy just thinking about it.
