    Hi... I noticed today that my beer review count was off by 1... and I located the culprit... It's a missing review for Hofbräuhaus München Hofbräu Dunkel. I reviewed both that and Hofbräu Original on 10/03/03... I have a physical printout of my beer list showing it... any idea where it went? Currently the database shows only 3 reviews for it, and the Dunkel was added just last week. I find it very hard to believe that this bier was never reviewed prior to this year... and I don't see any other Munich Dunkel Lagers under Hofbräu, whether active or archived. Were the old Dunkel reviews mistakingly deleted?

    Thnx


    Prosit!

    Weird coincidence, I also lost 1 a couple weeks ago and it's the same beer. Luckily I keep my reviews in more than one place so I can go dig it up. Thanks

    Hmm. The HB Dunkel is here: https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/4686/327250/

    And oddly, there are only 3 reviews. I know I ticked it a few years ago based on my Munich visit.

    Yeah, I have the feeling there's a glitch that needs fixing.

    Its really weird that this got posted. Just this week I was drinking a Hoffbrau dunkel and I went to pull it up to see what my notes were from when I reviewed it. Well, I was shocked to find I hadn't reviewed it so I wrote a review and chalked it up to having a bad memory. You'll see I'm one of only two reviews which was also odd, but then again there are multiple hoffbrau dunkel entries for each location, so I just moved on.

    OK - it has been located and restored. It should now appear in your lists of reviewed beers.

    True beer geeks keep backups of their reviews!!! :grin:

    Next thing you know, you'll take a picture of every beer you drink and post it on WBAYDN and NBS!

    Jason and I don't handle the day-to-day updates anymore, but I didn't bring this to the attention of the site editor team and they tracked it down.

    Now there are 2 listings for HB Dunkel -- one with 3 reviews, one with 1,246.

    Simply report that the new one needs to be merged into the other and someone will handle it.

    Any chance those of us who lost our reviews for Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro when that beer was deleted entirely with no advance notice a few years ago (for being the same beer as Left Hand Milk Stout) can get them back? Can't help but notice a new listing for Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro was started in 2014 after the purge and has hit thousands of ratings (again).

    I *think* that should correct itself after the next beer that you review/rate... @Todd or @Mike should be able to confirm when that gets updated.

    Looks like that happened for me -- I jumped from 618 to 620 after one added review.
