    Since you've been gone, people started liking beer that doesn't taste like beer. Warning: Watch out for anything labelled a "milkshake," it might actually be a beer! Strange times we live in.

    All kidding aside, Tree House makes some good IPAs and stouts. Not everyone's cup of tea but certainly worthy of a try.

    I think you got the prizes for 5,000 and 10,000 points reversed.

    I wouldn't be surprised if there was some "inactive" counter in the calculation that reduces karma of those not active. Pure speculation though.

    I was just typing up a reply that the 5,000 point prize is probably worth more than a week in Hawaii if someone wanted to sell that stuff.

    Karma is commensurate with contribution. We have Poo-Bahs on this site with less than 2 years of activity. Bottomline is that no system will ever suit anyone. I honestly don't care, but if I had to give an opinion, I think that tenure should count for something. If you joined in 2004 and have been completely absent for years, that's your fault. However, if you log on to the site every day, whether you post or not, there must be some way to measure that. Loyalty should count.

    Let's get LARRRGE©!

    I wouldn't worry about it. I know professional brewers who have lower scores

    The Westy can be ordered online, KBBS is trickier but perhaps will be more available with their brewery expansion.

    Not sure what a Pobah is but Poo-Bah's do get the fez.

    My thought is this

    It is great that you came back into the BA scene to give your experience to us, however, there are many BAS that in just 3 to 5 years have done so much more for this site than BAS with only longevity ,not karma. So i say that karma is directly related to imput now , soBAS like @cjgiant or @utopiajane who provided so much knowledge in a much less time frame have a well deserved poo-bahs status!, they are the true poobahs here!. But glad to see old school BAs pop back in! Cheers

    April 2009 and four hundred and something. I think getting in trouble for being funny on WBAYDN has put me on double secret beer karma probation.

    I think beer karma has a lot to do with reviews, comments, etc.

    The new jobs report implies that half of our karma and likes will be automated in the next 10 years anyway so we won't have to worry about it. Yay robots? :wink:
