Not sure if this was posted, but why have a Beer Menus page for your business if you're not going to update it?

 

I recently went to a bar and they were out of HALF of their beer menu. I eventually asked the bartender what they did have opposed to continuous let downs.

 

Dormant taps at a "beer bar"

 

That's obnoxious. I'm looking for a place to watch Cards/Cubs this afternoon not far from my office, so I looked up BM. Well, the bars that were closest all hadn't updated their accounts in 30+ days. I'm picking the bar that I used to frequent (even though they aren't on BM), because I know they have Anti Hero, at minimum.

 

Lack of a zero-calorie 12% ABV DIPA.

 

easily decipherable dates...

 

it makes me crazy when i see people drinking rare lambics, barrel aged beers, etc. out of a standard pint glass!

 

The spaces between when I'm drinking beer.

 

When people use the word "Outrage" to complain about something petty.

 

Adding fruit into and throwing every beer into spirit barrels and nerds bustin all over it

Out of date beers

Dozens of new terrible local breweries crowding out better beers by larger breweries

 

Dirty beer glasses from places claiming to specialize in great beer...

 

No dates
Mediocre IPAs
Spiced winter beers
Imperial beers besides stouts and IPAs

 

Super Bowl Sunday 2018, better load up before game day if you are attending and are from out of state!!

 

The fact that local breweries are popping up everywhere is Charlotte and hardly any have even an average product. You can tell some are just poorly planned ventures by someone who knows nothing about beer. That said, I'm very thankful for the good ones. Notably Heist, who has come out of nowhere with a new brewer to produce some of the best stuff ever to come out of this town.

 

Websites that have an "on tap" list, but it is not regularly updated. I don't care what you had 3 weeks ago.

I hate going to a brewery and talking to a staff that knows nothing about beer. I understand not everyone is a beer expert, but if you work at a brewery at least know a little about the beer you sell.
