    A beer geek is a person that can call their girlfriend/wife a mule, and not get slapped.

    I ate in a chain restaurant this year and ordered an Allagash White. The server brought me a bottle- no glass.
    When I asked for a glass- she gave me a look like "why does this guy want a glass to drink a beer- everyone else is drinking Bud Lite out a bottle."

    Never going back to that restaurant.

    Better yet a girlfriend/wife who has a smart phone to check the reviews and call you when she is in the beer store
    whether she should buy a beer "not on the list".

    Best is a girlfriend/wife who will go to craft beer bars that respectable middle class people would never consider going into- including semi dives which serve good beer.

    Buddy:" Hey dude, we're having a kegger of Bud for the 4th of July, $10 a cup"

    Beer Geek: " Sweet, I'll be bringing a cooler full of real beer so you can keep your cup and I put the $10 to better use."

    Proper glassware (note: I'm not against using it if it's available, but insisting on one glass for one beer bugs me)

    Drain pour

    Piney. Nowhere but the Northwoods is this word used more than in BA reviews.
