Beer Advocate's Top 20 - Page 3

Have to take all of these user/member generated lists with a grain of salt. One beer site will give a beer an 82, the other a 98. Hardly authoritative, but always an interesting read, because after reading the lists, usually you want to go out and try at least a few beers that you haven't experienced yet, and sometimes, you read it and realize that a beer that has been right under your nose, but you've been overlooking or ignoring, is on there (even though some other website might rate it somewhere between stagnant pond water and carbonated mule piss).

Only ones I have had in the top 10 are the 2 Plinys. No damn Founders in CA. Bullchit!

I really wish Founders would expand to the western U.S.

I got to have CBS on tap at Founders the day it was released, that is after I got 2 bottles

Loved KBS as well, going to this years release.

Need to do some major drinking. Although I can also mark off the IPA's. I've never met one I like.

We have similar tastes, Son, no love for any IPA I have ever tried.

I didn't like IPAs for a long time and then it's like something just clicked for me and now I love them. I can definitely see not being into it though. Especially when so many companies are just stuffing more hops in to say they have the hoppiest, most bitter IPA out there. To each their own.
