Official Top Beers Of The WORLD!
General Beer Discussion by EAGLEFAN538
Watch for yourself: http://finance.yahoo.com/blogs/big-data-download/top-10-beers-worldwide-181808114.html Or, actually, read for yourself and save some pain. Affligem and Smithwicks at least have flavor. Ooooh, let's ignite that debate. What the heck is Smitty's doing in the top beers of the world list? OR, geez, it isn't number one and got beat by those macros???? Just goes to show that personal tastes differ and we lose. Did he compare those to craft beers and imply that craft beers were inferior especially if you look all over the world????? Hillarious.

Yeah, I feel kinda snobby when I frown on reports about the best beers.... or when a waiter says what a fine beer they have with good flavor and offer a bridge beer.... So I keep quiet and recognize such things as progress for many. We've all been there - or many of us have anyway. But this was hard to take seriously. I couldn't really take it seriously, but I think it supposed to be.

This reminds me a little...well...a lot...of the San Francisco news station reading the names of the pilots involved in the crash several weeks back...read it with a straight face.. Like someone didn't bother to fact-check things and threw some of the worst possible beers into the list just for shits and giggles, and to see if someone would actually report this as "the best beers in the world"...Laurentina Clara??? Are you shitting me? LOL

I thought " I wonder how many I have had?" Lucky for me I can proudly say, none! But there was a disclaimer: Since FindTheBest's rankings depend on reviews, consumers and experts need to have access to a beer before reviewing it, and that's not always possible for some of the truly delicious but hard-to-find beers out there. "The reality is most of these [beers with big marketing budgets] aren't very good at all,” O'Connor told “Big Data Download.” “Our data shows that when people actually taste lesser-known beers and compare them to the most popular ones, they often prefer the small-brewery option," O'Connor said.
