Beer preference

Michael 22 years ago

I've recently gotten into drinking a variety of beers. So far, I've had your american staple cheap lagers: bud, coors, miller. I've also had Labatt Blue and Molsen Ice from Canada. Then, I've now had Heineken, bass and pale ale, and sam adams light. I've got things I like, or dislike about them, sure. But I read all these taste tests, reviews, etc...and everyone seems to just simply have different preferences. It does seem that Sam Adams comes out on top in a lot of blind taste tests and such, but isn't it all really just a personal preference!?

Anyway, just my first post of many I hope as I learn about this wonderful creation of beer.

Where are you located? You might try some of your local examples of various styles...

More or less preference. Sam Adams, eh, it's there IMO. Agree that you should try your local offerings. Looking at

is a good way to help you find what's in your local area.

*yawn* And which of those do you post on, dear boy?

Lemme guess, someone whined, all the less-intelligent BAs piled on, a lone voice of reason spoke out, and everyone backpedaled?

Did someone wind up purchasing rateabeergeek.com?

I popped in on both of those recently. Talk about a lot of self-congratulatory BS. It's worse than here, but without the ongoing discussion-like aspects (and with dictatorial control). At least we don't constantly spam those sites with pointers to USENET newsgroups.

Hmmm. If there was rateshit.com, I might try that.

A little less piddy-ish trolling, please, sir, and more about beer. Looking forward to the new book when it comes out.

Wonder if ratemypoo.com has an Off-Topic discussion board where they discuss beer. --

Because the only thing that gets posted here anymore is somebody saying "Go look at ratebeer/BeerAdvocate." And it bores me. So I said it. Cuz I was bored. Not trolling, though I could see why someone would think that. Just a bit of melancholy. I think I've earned that.

BeerAdvocate. In the forums. Cuz they won't let me rate beers the way they oughta be rated. You know...GOOD or S**TE. And cuz Andy went there, and I like Andy.

Nah, didn't have anything to do with there. It was here.

I sure thought about it. But I'd need someone with a programming brain to set it up... Hey, waitaminute...

I like Andy, but it doesn't mean I went there. Well, except to search when I need a beer's ABV or location or something.

Is fun to see your posts every so often. You should post drunk more often though.

You buy and design, I make site real cheap. Then I rate you.
