There’s something about summer that brings out the adventurous beer drinker in me. Don’t get me wrong, a cold suds hits the spot all year long, but the hot sun puts me in the mood to roll the dice on some different brews.

Now on the scene is BeerSuggest, a new wiki that informs users about everything beer related.

Covering over 4,363 beers and 1,154 breweries, you can research based on country, style, alcohol content, public rating and several pother criteria.

The site also keeps tabs on upcoming beer festivals and events.

Beer holds a special place in many people’s hearts. And now that the beloved beverage can potentially fuel vehicles, it might be a cure-all after all!
