    I once saw a (obviously joking) post in a thread that went something along the lines of

    "I was in my favorite bottle shop when I saw a mixed 6 pack of Pliny the Younger, Pliny the Elder, Zombie Dust, Heady Topper, Hopslam, and Jai Alai, all bottled 3 days ago.
    I brought it to the counter and asked to see the manager. I then informed him that I would from then on take my business elsewhere, as I refused to buy from an establishment with such lax freshness standards."

    I'm ashamed to admit that when I first read that, it took me a bit longer than I would have liked to realize he was kidding.

    Saw a conversation about the just released DirtWold. Someone said it was good and reminded him of Heady. Some guy said there's no way it tasted that good and said the guy had an amateur palate. Someone else asked the guy what he thought about it. The snob said that he hadn't even tried it yet.

    I also like when someone reviews a beer and can somehow taste like 6 different fruits, the flavor coming from the barrel and how it smells like some rare flower = SNOB!!!
