It occurred to me that I couldn't reliably tell you about some Adnams about which I wanted other's opinions. Therefore I put forward this six point scale for the reporting of beer quality.
0 - Unfit 1 - Disappointing - Poor example 2 - Average - Nothing wrong but no good points 3 - Pleasant - Some good points 4 - Very nice - The standard we expect of 'good beer well kept' 5 - Exceptional - A bonusMy guess is that most people will be able to relate to this scale quite easily. It sort of boils down to informed enthusiasm. What do you think folks?
With slight variations it could be used to score pubs as well.
BTW I was right to be sceptical about Adnams Fisherman on sale as a guest locally. A definite '2' - a sort of watery brown ale. Any other opinions?
