    I actually became a member in 2006, but I sucked off until now. Anyway, it wasn't until this last month that I became active, and I love it. I love being part of the community, and I love checking in on a daily basis - I LOVE being a beer advocater. So here is to my first trade, and I cant wait until I taste Heady. Cheers!

    Haha this guy's reviews are great, I am loving them. You should publish a book.

    Disregard if your post was sarcasm (you'd think I would be able to tell haha) but if the Port Wipeout review is an indication, I think a book of beer reviews in which no characteristics of the beer are given, the reviewer refers to himself liberally in the third person, and advice unrelated to beer is included, is not the best idea.

    I thank you for pointing me to Raul's reviews. Love them. As an unabashed Rickey Henderson fan, I am loving the use of third person (referring to himself) used throughout the reviews. Always cracks me up.

    I just checked them out. I need to borrow some of his creativity.

    Cheers to his first beer trade.

    You know what I find funny is people said now that hads is counted in beer ratings people would throw of the balance by having all 1s or 5s, then I saw this guys reviews, and it just proves that the same can be done from the review side of the argument.

    Oh man these are straight gold nuggets. Por ejemplo: Upon first inspection it looked ok. Smell? Lacking to hints of nasty. Taste? Oh my... I'm more than certain the last time they cleaned the taps was when Bonds hat size was still a 14 and Jeff Kent broke his wrist 'washing his truck.'

    "If this beer deserves a 100, Then Twilight derserves a Oscar" While not very informational about the beer, if you are reading through reviews they sure are a refreshing change!

    True, but the entertainment value outweighs the poopiness :slight_smile:
