This line chart tracks beer consumption per person in the United States from 1890 to 2013, measured in litres of ethanol per year. The visualization clearly shows a sharp drop to zero during the Prohibition era (1920–1933) followed by a gradual recovery and rise in consumption. Built with D3 v5, the SVG uses `scaleTime` and `scaleLinear` to map the data, with `area` and `curveBasis` for the filled path. Data is loaded via `d3.csv` from Our World in Data.
