    Very true. The beer in my hand is always rated 100.

    I (99% of the time) disagree with #4 because #4 usually entails something with the word ice or light at the end, and something like keystone, bud, or coors to begin with.

    If I were still in college though, it would definitely be on there.

    The only thing I would add is sharing a beer with someone you enjoy being around

    Nor have I, unless you call going over a friends house to watch football and I bring a 6 pack and he buys a 6 pack and we drink it amongst 3 of us.

    Great article with some really good points. I definitely agree with what he was saying. The list was very enjoyable as well. That's why my end of the year list for 2013 wasn't called "The 10 Best Beers", but was called "My 10 Favorite Beers" because the truth is I had a lot of great beer and can't say definitively that one beer is in fact the BEST out of every beer/style out there.

    And apart from the list numbers 1-5 not a single digit in sight. Now that's advocacy.

    I agree with the posts above. Refreshing take on the ubiquitous "top 10" lists.

    I find it a bit holier than thou. Like if you went to a sports blog and posted 'It doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things which team wins, it's only a game!'. Yes, everybody knows but we're having more fun than you are.

    I liked it. Fact is that there is so much good beer available that I can confidently just slip down to the pub and see what's on.I can't understand those who chase after individual beers, will they enjoy them any more than easy to find ones?

    Some people just seem to get off on being the first to throw out the "TASTE IS SUBJECTIVE" thing at the first sight of any list. We get it... it's just interesting to see.

    This list reminds me of any interview with a politician or sports coach, wherein the interviewee never answers the actual question asked by the interviewer.

    What if I have two beers in my hands? I have been known to double fist from time to time.
