Next Monday starts the beginning of American Craft Beer Week and to celebrate I am starting a new challenge. Starting Monday, I will be attempting to drink and review 50 beers in 50 days from each of the 50 states.
Basically I am going to try and find a craft beer to try from every state in the country. You can read more about the challenge here along with my updates and the rules.
I know it might be tough finding beer from a few states, but that will be part of the challenge. I may have to go shopping online. I know Brewforia has a lot of west coast beers and might have a few things my local shops won’t.
Are you in?
Is anyone interested in doing it with me? Just find a beer from each state starting May 16th and drink and review all 50 by July 5th. Either post the reviews on your blog, or if you don’t have one, I can help you get setup.
Just write in the comments below if your up for the challenge.

I wish I could drink fifty varieties of Kid Rock beer in fifty days. All from Michigan, of course.
I wish you the best of luck on this quest! I can see how, for some states, it will be a difficult choice, and for others, not much of a choice at all. I will be cheering you on. Cheers!
Include DC!! Our first brewery in 50 years is now canning and well they are ok:)

To bad, that i live on the other side of the planet, if I would be in the US I would be with you all the way
Cheers
A noble quest. Not to throw a monkey wrench into your plan, but what are you going to do about ND, a state without a brewery? (As for Mississippi, ordering or trading for Lazy Magnolia’s Southern Pecan should be easy, but I highly recommend their Jefferson Stout made with sweet potatoes!)
Yeah, I’m still trying to figure out what to do with a few states. I’m thinking for ND maybe just finding some homebrew. I’d love to find Jefferson Stout, been trying to get my hands on some, but I’ll take what I can get from Lazy Magnolia. Thanks Brian.
I am a native Virginian, and since Dominion Brewing got sold to Inbev, there were few great brewers here. But back in my native Tidewater area, there is an up-and-coming brewer I have fallen in love with: St. George Brewing Company. They make an ideal IPA, but their Spring Lager is a thing to behold. A Vienna-style lager, it’s both crisp and malty; perfectly balanced. Just had it the first time this weekend. Do yourself a favor can get some.
