Generation B · Beer Atlas
Beer has geography. Geography has layers.
A source-aware atlas that separates current political places, historical territories, brewing traditions, legal designations, ingredient origins, event locations, and point coordinates instead of flattening them into one map pin.
Current geography
Countries, administrative areas, and localities
Hierarchy is explicit where the foundation has support. Missing parents are not guessed.
current administrative area
Bavaria
German region used for the 1516 Bavarian beer-law context.
