    ...you walk up to random strangers at the liquor store to suggest beers or steer them clear from others

    I don't check my cellar once a day so that when I do pull something out of it once a month or so I go: "Oh hey! Look at that beer! And look at that beer! When did I get those?"

    I was behind someone in line at a local store and they were buying GI IPA, the store was having a GI tasting that day, I suggested he put that back and try DFH 60 instead and he did. Now whenever I run into him at the store he reminds me it was much better and asks what he should try next.
    you might be a BA if you spend more time talking to strangers at the store then looking at the beer

    If you literally cannot walk past a beer aisle without checking the dates on all the bottles.
    If you call yourself a "BA" and people think you mean Bad Ass.
    If your bank account never exceeds $1.93... Maybe that's just me.

    If you're in the mood for a 'lighter beer' and reach for one with 7% ABV

    There was a pig roast at my father's cabin this past weekend. They had 2 kegs of High Life. I came with Sucks, Flower Power, Hi-Res, and All Day IPA. As the day wore on, I'd go for the High Life but when taste was still important, I was drinking the expensive stuff.

    Not sure if this has been said. You have more pictures of beer than you do your children.

    Well, shit. Although in fairness, my son is only 3 weeks old, so the library of beer pics on my phone has a major head start.

    If you've ever tried to get a beer store in the ghetto to sell you 4 packs of SN Big Foot, Ten Fidy or Brooklyn Chocolate Stout for a discount because it's over 2 years old.

    If your girlfriend calls BeerAdvocate.com "Beerbook" because you're on this website as much as she's on Facebook. Gotta love her.

    You decide which chapstick flavor to use based on what beer you'll be drinking.
