I spent four days and three nights living out of a condo in one of these beer deserts, so I can tell you that the struggle is real and these people need help. In return, the beer geek will get photos and regular updates about how that unfortunate middle-aged man is impacted by the beer he is sent. Or a pen pal program where beer geeks can adopt a middle-aged man in a Beer Desert and send him a monthly beer package. Other ideas: underground pipelines running IPAs from Beer Towns to Beer Deserts. I know America has a lot on its plate right now, what with Boss Baby running the country and natural disasters chipping away at our edges, but can we take a minute to recognize the injustice of having to drive up to 12 or 13 miles before being able to order a porter? Can we please get these people a saison? Maybe use our fleet of drones to air drop mixed six packs, like how we used to airdrop supplies for our allies in WWII.Īnd that’s just one idea I have for helping these people. What the hell are these poor individuals supposed to drink with their charcuterie? A corn-adjunct lager!? Restaurants where the taps are filled with Miller-Coors products.

Apparently, there are also Beer Deserts where privileged dudes with Untappd accounts can’t get access to stouts aged in bourbon barrels. You hear about “Food Deserts,” those wastelands without nutrition where families don’t have access to affordable, fresh food, or really anything that doesn’t come out of a drive through window. That’s when it hit me: I was in a Beer Desert. Flabbergasted, I sat in our minivan and asked Siri to find the nearest beer store. There were plenty of shriveled hot dogs for a buck, but no craft beer. Five stops at various gas stations and the most interesting thing I could find to drink was Smirnoff Ice. I thought it was odd, but I moved on to the next store, only to find a similar selection. But the stab n grab only had Budweiser and Coors products. I often try to stimulate the local economy in such a manner when I travel. It seemed like a fairly benign errand at the time. Coming home from our scurvy- fighting buffet one night, I decided to hop into a gas station to pick up a six pack of something local. Let’s just say it’s a southern beach town known for its putt putt courses and pirate themed restaurants. I always suspected as much and my family and friends have certainly hinted at the fact, but my sense of entitlement was driven home recently during a family trip to the beach.
