    3.98 Seem about right. Might actually climb a bit going forward. I'm pretty rarely disappointed with my selections these days and overall feel like I'm drinking better stuff than I was when I started out on here.

    3.93

    Since the year just ended, I looked at all of my 2019 ratings.

    Highest was a 4.6: Revolution Brewing Cafe Deth.

    Lowest was a 2.04: Miller Brewing Company Milwaukee's Best Light.

    4.06, probably reasonable as I seek out beers that are regarded as good examples of different styles, which would tend to result in a higher proportion of good beers than a random sample. I think of 4 as a beer I would be likely to order if available.

    My average rating for 1493 beers is 3.78. That value is based on a letter-grade scale, where B (good) is 3.5, B+ (very good) is 3.75, A- (nearly excellent) is 4.0, etc.

    Mine is 4.29 however as others mentioned earlier, I typically only review beers I enjoyed. A habit I need to break this year

    I'm a straight up 3.75...as of today. I'm not surprised, but I know that I rate a little higher than how the 1-5 scale should be used with 3.0 being a decent beer.

    Mine is 3.94. Either I only drink good beer or I don't know what the hell I'm doing when rating beers. :thinking_face:

    3.97, but I’m a notorious overrater.

    Then again, I make use of this magnificent site to ensure that I don’t drink a beer that I won’t enjoy if at all possible.

    God bless the beer godz and the interwebz, but I do love being a beer nerd!

    4.26

    About 500 have a negative or 0.0 rDev (out of 1244). Which I assume means I don't rate stuff at an artificially high.

    At 3.77, I was somewhat surprised because I tend to buy beer I know I will like. However, I do sometimes buy outside of my comfort zone and perhaps that is why it is at 3.77.

    Mine is 3.73. It would be higher but I just can't get into these gross murky IPAs. And I live in Vermont, FFS. That's all that ever comes out new here.

    3.5
    maybe a reflection of earlier times and more mass produced beer sampling

    I need to have my socks blown off to go beyond a 4.25 these days.
