Infographic: The Incredible Taxonomy of Almost Every Beer in the World

Posted in: Uncategorized

Pop Chart Lab makes some impressive taxonomy charts. Following last year's complete taxonomy of college sports mascots, the poster company has turned to everyone's favorite subject—alcohol—for its latest mind-boggling creation: The Magnificent Multitude of Beer.

Click over to the site to zoom in and scroll around the comprehensive chart. It's organized by varieties of beer, with examples of brands for each type. Says the company: "This wall map is the most complete charting of beer ever, breaking down ales and lagers into over 100 delicious styles from hoppy IPAs to fruity lambics, and including over 500 individual beers as notable examples of each style as well as glassware recommendations."

The 60-by-40-inch poster can be yours for $76.

The Complete Taxonomy of College Sports Mascots

Posted in: Uncategorized

We've been in love with taxonomies ever since the agency-name infographic a few months ago. Here's one that's truly stunning to behold—Pop Chart Lab's new Chart of Collegiate Sports Teams. For sale (at $30 a pop) as a 2- by 3-foot poster, the chart claims to offer "a taxonomic breakdown of every collegiate sports team in the United States. From Division I to Division III, from Banana Slugs to Little Giants, there are over 1100 schools charted in six square feet of higher learning." (My beloved Bears of Washington University in St. Louis are represented. Shout if your school's team isn't represented.) There sure are a crapload of Eagles and Tigers and Bulldogs, oh my. But the real gems are found in offshoots like Professions -> Resource Extraction and Self-Referential -> Abstractions. Best place to examine this masterpiece in more detail is on the Pop Chart Lab site itself.
