How to Know If You Are a Beer Snob
<< Return to Blog

Beer compilation lists always get a lot of feedback regarding certain beers that were left out, or why certain beers were included that are supposedly inferior to those missing. However, some type of arbitrary beer rating isn’t going to make anyone happy, because beer superiority is more hotly-debated than the Israeli-Palestine conflict.  This handy flowchart will help you to find out if you are as much of an obnoxious asshole as I am when it comes to talking about specialty and craft brews.

  After the sake bubble, you misspelled 'O RLY'.

  Nope, there was no misspelling there- remember-sake bubble. This is a play on the infamous L/R tlansposition that has resulted in such things as "Starion" instead of "Stallion" "Prease" instead of "Please" and "Beel" instead of "Beer". It's not only the Japanese language, either- Some African Languages have also exhibited the same transposition. I also transpose when I have a G&T.....

  Like it. Of course, Oskar Blues and 21 Amendment seem to be trying to throw that whole "out of a can" faux pas on its ass; then again, I'm sure they'd prefer you first pour their brews into a frosty pint glass.

  Whoa...never poor a finely crafted beer into a frosty glass. Glass should be clean and room temp - you get more aromatics that way.
