Vital Statistics

It would be criminal not to take the data presented on this website to the extreme and do some vital statistical analysis.  I know you need to see this.  The People's Republic of China (PRC) currently administers a total of 33 province divisions (22 provinces, 4 municipalities, 5 autonomous regions and 2 special administrative regions).

China Provinces

Firstly, a graph of no. of labels summed up by province where province is the location where the beer was brewed.  As you can see, Shandong comes out a big winner as a brewing paradise.

Not to be outdone by the graph above, you need to know a similar graph by place of acquisition.  As I lived in Beijing, the result is not totally unexpected.  As you can see, I only made it to 17 of the 33 provinces.

This one needs a bit of work on the data but this shows the frequency of beers by brewery. It probably needs some work on the data, particularly in handling brewing companies with multiple brewery locations.

Now you didn't think that was it, did you ?  How about a frequency distribution of beers by alcohol strength.

Russia

Under construction. Eventually, you will see a list of Russian beer labels acquired while on holiday in Russia. Many were acquired at railway station stops during the 6 day "Trans-Mongolian" train trip from Moscow to Beijing. May have been the trip of a lifetime if we travelled first class. We thought that was what we booked but alas, it didn't seem like it.
