The Adventure of a Dry Hopped Saison

This batch of Bean Brew began with a library card attached to the back of a bottle of beer. Once the drinking data was returned by each of the 16 Bean Brew Patrons, I designed this treasure map which shows the location where each Bean Brew was consumed. I spent an inordinately long amount of time taking a pretty ordinary modern map of San Francisco exported from QGIS and turning it into something akin to a 17th Century treasure map. The sea monsters helped. As did the nearly impossible to read pirate handwriting.

Like a real batch of buried treasure, the extra copies of this beautiful silkscreen map were all stolen and hopefully hidden somewhere safe (although more than likely they ended up in a dumpster somewhere. Or dumped upside-down on Market Street).
