What is Beerphemera?
Firstly: Hello and welcome to Beerphemera. The Beer part should be obvious, and ephemera refers to:
Things that exist or are used or enjoyed for only a short time; items of collectable memorabilia, typically written or printed ones, that were originally expected to have only short-term usefulness or popularity.[1]
For me it means, labels, leaflets, beermats, posters, stickers, bottles, glasses, menus... Anything relating to beer, pubs or pub culture that I can fit into my bag and take home with me. Even if I probably shouldn't.
The site, however, is mostly about making it easier for me to track what Beers I've had, which is a lot easier with my full Beer Chart online, than trying to search a spreadsheet on my phone.
In time, I hope to get all of my Beerphemera on this site (which first means first means sorting through a large storage box and trying to remember where/when it all came from), and ultimately I'd like to open it up for others to share their beers and Beerphemera.
There are currently 8686 Beers, Ciders, and Meads in the Beerphemera chart.
