Post your 2016 Beer Stats

Also keep a s/s, but only about actual stock I have and not what I drink outside. Just started using Untappd to help with that.

2016 Purchases = 477 bottles (avg. 1 purchase/week)

• Amount drank = 266
• Amount shared = 59
• Amount gave away = 23

2016 Year-end inventory = 434 bottles

225 different beers and/or years of the same beer (e.g., 2015 & 2016 Parabola, KBS, BCS, etc. count as distinct beers) in stock.

Avg. ABV 11.11%
Avg. BA Rating (incomplete) is approx. 92.17/4.20
Avg. RB Rating (incomplete) is approx. 97.03/3.82
My average rating is 94.45

Largest inventories:

• DFH - 57 (mostly WWS & 120')
• GI BC - 51

I just did a quick scan, and I reveiwed over 250 beers in 2016. Way more that I would have guessed

 

I don't track my drinking or purchases, but I did review 312 beers in 2016. Highest scores were from Picobrouwrij Alvinne and Jacks Abby.

 

I only reviewed 23 beers in 2015, so subtracting those 23 from my total leaves me with 415 new-to-me beers this year that I reviewed. That doesn't include sips or flights. Shamefully, it does include some half pour reviews.

Not totally sure how my styles break down.

I can say I spent way to much on beer. So much so that one of my biggest goals for 2017 is to actually maintain my beer budget, and not spend all my extra pennies on it. Splurging is nice, just not for 12 months straight.

 

I don't count how many individual bottles/glasses of beer I drink or how many times I've tried beers I've already had, just how many new beers I've tried.

That said... looking over the text file where I keep track of that kind of stuff, it looks like I tried 85 new beers in 2016. 42 of those (almost half!) were ones I had on tap at a brewery or restaurant, though I did go back and get six-packs of a few of them later on.

Also did a good number of reviews, though not as many as 2015 (partly because I was trying less new beers than in 2015 so a lot of what I had was stuff I'd already reviewed!) -- 44 of them total (BA site seems to think I reviewed Mocha Marlin on January 1st, 2017 but I know I drank that one around 8-9 pm on the 31st and posted the review between my first and second pours... so I'm counting it toward the 2016 reviews.)

Styles are all over the place: 14 in the IPA family (including double IPAs, red IPAs, white IPAs, etc.), 11 in the stout/porter family, 7 Saisons (...most of them different variants of one at a local brewery), 4 Scotch Ales, 3 Helles, 3 Oktoberfests, 3 American Pale Ales, 3 Irish Reds...

 

Drank a bunch and forgot everything.

 

Just looked at my Untappd stats for the "last 365 days"

TOTAL BEERS = 1601
UNIQUE BEERS = 806
TOP 3 STYLES:
1. IPA = 144 unique
2. Imperial IPA = 127 unique
3. Pale Ale = 56 unique
TOP 3 BEERS: (based on number of times I checked in with them)
1. Founders All Day IPA
2. Bells Two Hearted
3. Bells Hopslam

I am glad Untappd kept track of this for me, because as you can see.... I have no recollection of what happened in 2016... lol

 

where do you find for the last 365 option?

 

Login on your computer, click your icon on the top right and select "Personal Stats", Then the top right has a drop down to select the time period.

 

Ah, you have to pay for it... no wonder I couldn't find it. Ha

 

What a great idea. I don't keep track of my beer consumption but a rough look at my ratings on BA tells me that I had around 370-380 beers last year. I'd say more the 95% of these were beers I had for the first time. No idea what the style distribution was but I'd guess it leaned a lot toward IPAs, PAs and various Belgian styles. US- and Belgian-made beers were probably the majority, followed by German ones.

 

Less stats more beer!!!

 

2-3 beers per day x 365 days, somewhere between 730 and 1095 consumed in 2016. Tried and bought tons of new beers but did not keep track. I'm at Excel all day at work and just want to enjoy beers when I get home. Cheers!

 

Looking back at my notes....

I DRANK ALL THE BEER!!!

 

January - 18
February - 25
March - 44
April - 55
May - 52
June - 50
July - 30
August - 35
September - 46
October - 40
November - 31
December - 32
2016 Total: 458
More than I would've guessed, but that only includes the # of new beers I tried. If I included every single beer I drank through out the year, it would probably be around 600 or so.

 

Total new beers in 2016: 174 - my lowest number since my first two years, 2011 and 2010...

...Compared to 246 in 2015, 214 in 2014, 255 in 2013, and 250 in 2012

46 were DIPAs
44 were IPAs

To quote Chip Kelly: "I was told there would be no math."

Seriously though, the stats are really quite simple.

12, 16, and 22 oz curls. Repeat as needed.

Alright...class dismissed!
