As we both are Craft Beer Enthusiasts, we decided to analyze ratings that were given out to the beers from all the independent breweries in the country because we've always suspected the ratings in different regions of the country may not follow the same pattern, In addition, we would like to investigate the connection between the popular beers and ingredients and see if we can "predict" (not as in ML sense) a beer will become popular by looking at its hops and ingredients.
- Find out if there is any correlation between the location of the brewery and the ratings that a brewery is getting
- Find out the correlation between ratings and ingredients used in the beer.
- Find out the correlation between beer styles and the kind of ratings they receive.
- As a bonus question, it would be nice to find out the highly rated styles of beers in each state because it would guide us in hunting the best beers in the future.
To answer these questions, we've obtained data from two sources OpenBreweryDB and Untappd, which we will describe in detail in the following sections. We are still working on obtaining the ingredients of beers, depending on whether or not we will actually acquire the data, our questions may be subject to changes.
