I think some of my DIPA's transmuted into NEIPA's.

 

It's great that all of BA now have access to their style stats. As of April of last year:

American IPA | 94 | 11.87% | 3.88
German Märzen / Oktoberfest | 57 | 7.2% | 3.55
American Imperial IPA | 50 | 6.31% | 4.08
Russian Imperial Stout | 35 | 4.42% | 4.1
American Pale Ale (APA) | 30 | 3.79% | 3.93
American Adjunct Lager | 29 | 3.66% | 3.06

American Porter | 16 | 2.02% | 3.82

Now:
American IPA | 111 | 10.57% | 3.9
German Märzen / Oktoberfest | 71 | 6.76% | 3.53
American Imperial IPA | 53 | 5.05% | 4.06

Belgian Strong Dark Ale | 20 | 1.9% | 4.12
Belgian Quadrupel (Quad) | 20 | 1.9% | 4.13

Not a big change, just a lot of big beers.

 

Looks like you drink a lot of Adjunct Lagers, and appear to hate them. Haha

 

American IPA | 365 | 9.51% | 3.92
American Imperial IPA | 176 | 4.59% | 4.06
American Pale Ale (APA) | 153 | 3.99% | 3.78
American Imperial Stout | 142 | 3.7% | 4.2

I'll play.

American Imperial IPA | 296 | 16.71% | 4.21
American IPA | 260 | 14.68% | 4.05
American Imperial Stout | 140 | 7.91% | 4.26
New England IPA | 102 | 5.76% | 4.24
American Pale Ale (APA) | 62 | 3.5% | 4.03
Russian Imperial Stout | 58 | 3.27% | 4.23
American Porter | 50 | 2.82% | 4
Belgian Saison | 49 | 2.77% | 4.01
English Sweet / Milk Stout | 37 | 2.09% | 4.04
American Stout | 29 | 1.64% | 3.94

A few years ago, I'd never have guessed that 3 of my top 4 categories would be IPA styles. It's probably due to the fact that I frequent local breweries who keep pumping them out. A lot of them are from Magnify and Twin Elephant.

 

Mine has changed a bit since last time I posted. Since then, I've gotten into IPAs and wild-ale sours, where I disliked them previously. They're creeping up the list as I try a bunch of new ones every month. Stouts will always be #1 though.

American Imperial Stout | 196 | 22.87% | 4.16
English Sweet / Milk Stout | 60 | 7% | 3.97
Russian Imperial Stout | 48 | 5.6% | 4.02
American Stout | 41 | 4.78% | 3.94
American Porter | 33 | 3.85% | 3.9
Pumpkin Beer | 29 | 3.38% | 3.65
English Oatmeal Stout | 25 | 2.92% | 3.99
American IPA | 23 | 2.68% | 3.93
American Brown Ale | 22 | 2.57% | 4.06
American Wild Ale | 18 | 2.1% | 4.1

 

I stopped rating/reviewing about 2 1/2 years ago, so this data isn't really accurate anymore. Belgian Saison being the main style I'd say probably is no longer in the top ten, but here ya go!

American IPA | 314 | 11.21% | 4.03
American Imperial IPA | 251 | 8.96% | 4.21
American Imperial Stout | 201 | 7.17% | 4.27
Belgian Saison | 165 | 5.89% | 4.09
American Wild Ale | 123 | 4.39% | 4.2
American Pale Ale (APA) | 108 | 3.85% | 3.97
Russian Imperial Stout | 77 | 2.75% | 4.24
American Porter | 70 | 2.5% | 4.04
American Stout | 56 | 2% | 3.98
American Black Ale | 55 | 1.96% | 4.16

 

Now.

American IPA | 168 | 8.96% | 3.79
American Pale Ale (APA) | 96 | 5.12% | 3.63
Belgian Saison | 65 | 3.46% | 3.84
American Imperial IPA | 61 | 3.25% | 4.04
Fruit and Field Beer | 55 | 2.93% | 3.42
European Pale Lager | 48 | 2.56% | 3.06
German Pilsner | 42 | 2.24% | 3.31
American Adjunct Lager | 41 | 2.19% | 2.76
American Imperial Stout | 41 | 2.19% | 4.12
English Pale Ale | 39 | 2.08% | 3.54

Then (August 2018)

American IPA | 131 | 8.50%
American Pale Ale | 83 | 5.39%
American Double / Imperial IPA | 57 | 3.70%
Saison / Farmhouse Ale | 54 | 3.50%
Fruit / Vegetable Beer | 46 | 2.99%
Euro Pale Lager | 44 | 2.86%
American Adjunct Lager | 39 | 2.53%
English Pale Ale | 38 | 2.47%
German Pilsener | 35 | 2.27%
Amber / Red Ale | 35 | 2.27%

Not much changing other than IPA's (in general) as NEIPA's (now T-12) are up a big number due to more on the local market and some reclassification and a movement towards the top with Imperial stouts. Guessing that a year from now NEIPA's and American Lagers will replace English Pale Ale's and AAL's.

 

New England IPA | 122 | 17.45% | 4.2
American IPA | 75 | 10.73% | 4.08
Belgian Saison | 71 | 10.16% | 4.16
American Imperial IPA | 64 | 9.16% | 4.02
American Wild Ale | 43 | 6.15% | 4.14
American Pale Ale (APA) | 41 | 5.87% | 4.1
American Imperial Stout | 39 | 5.58% | 4.22
German Pilsner | 34 | 4.86% | 4.05
Bohemian Pilsener | 17 | 2.43% | 3.94
Belgian Gueuze | 11 | 1.57% | 4.42

Looking forward to the snapshot the next time I take one.

 

Here are mine. Surprised at some and not at all at others.

American IPA | 111 | 8.35% | 4.14
American Imperial IPA | 68 | 5.12% | 4.3
American Imperial Stout | 45 | 3.39% | 4.36
Belgian Saison | 44 | 3.31% | 4.17
American Porter | 40 | 3.01% | 4.08
American Pale Ale (APA) | 38 | 2.86% | 4.05
American Amber / Red Ale | 32 | 2.41% | 4.12
Russian Imperial Stout | 30 | 2.26% | 4.34
American Adjunct Lager | 29 | 2.18% | 2.75
American Wild Ale | 28 | 2.11% | 4.27

I have a huge backlog I would like to enter this winter, and I would like to revisit how the stats below change as a result.

American IPA | 66 | 10.41% | 3.75
American Imperial Stout | 66 | 10.41% | 4.26
American Imperial IPA | 43 | 6.78% | 3.95
American Pale Ale (APA) | 33 | 5.21% | 3.6
New England IPA | 27 | 4.26% | 3.86
European Pale Lager | 18 | 2.84% | 3.01
American Adjunct Lager | 15 | 2.37% | 2.64
American Pale Wheat Ale | 15 | 2.37% | 3.49
Russian Imperial Stout | 14 | 2.21% | 4.39
American Wild Ale | 14 | 2.21% | 3.84

Cheers!

A few observations: I'm surprised Pale Wheats and Ambers are still in the Top 10. People don't make them very often. New England IPA sits at 11th just 17 beers behind.

 

Also, can't believe I'm 30 IPAs away from 1000!

 

I'm surprised that you found 184 different Pale Wheat Ales! But when I looked at the style list (https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/styles/93/) there are 4,274 beers in that style! Maybe this category has been used as a catch-all by many members when entering beers whose style is uncertain. A few beers listed there looked suspicious to me.

 

That and Fruit & Field are a little weird. There are lots a "fruit" wheat beers that could be in either category.
