MIDS Capstone Project Summer 2017

Hoptimizer

Craft brewing is a multi-billion dollar industry showing no signs of slowing down. Despite rapid industry growth overall, it has not been evenly-distributed across the country. “Craft beer tourism” brings big $$, but with the brewing landscape changing so fast, it’s hard to know where to go. This results in significant missed opportunities, for both brewmasters and craft beer enthusiasts alike.

Our goal is to help people discover their new favorite beer by matching their existing preferences with beers review, beer ratings and beer style data. We also aim to aggregate brewery location, price and review data to suggest the next brew-venture for beer travellers, and promising neighborhoods for new or expanding brewers to target, based on various population factors.
