What are your beer miles?


Even if you walk to your local every week, add 'em up just for fun.

That is some good beer work my friend!!!

Met with Edwrto for a cold one (or 7) after work...but the place was sort of on the way home for work...so 1/10th of a mile. Ed may rack a few up from his end though:

I use this for calculation

I've not done many miles at all this year.

Mainly Ireland and Africa.

I guess I could call the Ireland trip(s) beer miles so probably about 2000 max.

IIRC, orfy, you walk a few miles between pubs. It adds up, I can assure you.

It's difficult to log the miles because we drive to most events (and never in a straight shot).

Trip from Milwaukee WI to Orlando FL: 2138 Had my first "real ale" there

2 Trips from Milwaukee WI to Las Vegas NV: 6084 Hit the UpStream Brewpub in Omaha ounce on the way. And hit up the BigDog Draft house in Las Vegas each time.

Trip from Milwaukee WI to Eagle River WI: 416 Went to a "hole in the wall" bar and got High Life taps for $1.25.

For the total of: 8639 miles. Not bad for not leaving the country.
