    This has evolved into "Let's put capital letters together and expect people to know what they mean"
    Please stop, take the extra .8 seconds and spell it "TF" (the fuck) out please! It just seems so lazy.

    FO

    I think that’s the only one I can think of that hasn’t been mentioned. FO = fundamental observation by bottle logic.

    when I first traded beers I would have to research what the acronyms were. I would find a beer I wanted that was FT then had to google what the ISO was.

    Agreed. I think secondary trading has a lot to do with it. People putting beers up for trade and just not wanting to have to spell it all out every time. For sure grounded around laziness.

    I don't discuss beer with many knowledgeable beer people, so I have no idea what is "generally known," but I use AOM here because Ayinger Oktober Fest-Marzen is well-known and respected and the complete name is quite cumbersome in conversation at nine syllables.

    I suppose I should switch to AOFM.
