I like to drink big beers and small beers (though not the kind form that terrible video)

Lately I've been drinking Dos Equis and Sapporo for big beers and Unibroue and Propeller for small beers

there has been one beer in my entire life I didn't finish because it tasted gross it was some beer called Epic from new zealand and it was gross as gently caress so let's turn to beer advocate to see what they have to say

A: Clear amber body with a large 3 cm almost-white head that aint going nowhere... I’m impressed with this head but I want to drink this beer eventually bro... nice spider web lace in the glass... good proteins... *taps fingers on desk* 7/10.

i'm pretty sure this guy busted a nut in his glass and rubbed it around and called it aspider web this is something i would drink so i'm afraid I'm going to have to stop here here's my review of this part of this review

a) good insinuation of cumming in glass, impressed at not resulting to word "cummies" but instead building a rich imagery with metaphors and webbing

b) good to be protein rich i guess

c) 9/10

79% for something that isn't like Michelob Ultra or malt liquor is a pretty bad score for BA. you can find reviews that are extremely negative, but because the "appearance" gets a good rating, the overall score of the beer is far higher than it should be- not too long ago i found a beer where the reviewer poured it down the drain, but it still got a 3.2 out of 5.

the people who run the site are assholes, too.

http://beerstreetjournal.com/beer-advocate-spent-weekend-banning-members/

they actually looked for people saying bad things about them on other sites, figured out which account they had on beeradvocate, and deleted it- along with all their reviews, messages, etc. if you posted anything about what was happening in their forums- even if it was someone with whom you were setting up a trade- it would be deleted and you might be banned. many people left and went over to talkbeer, which is basically GBS for beer nerds.

laugh at people getting towed during a hurricane (not saying i'm above this, but i wouldn't post that on twitter if a were a public figure)

you can find tons of stuff like that. a lot of industry people don't care for them, but they still have enough sway that hardly anyone wants to be on their bad side
