    Unfortunately I don't have a large pool of ratings to work with here, as most of the places that I've rated have only been rated by me, but there is clearly something wrong with the way the score is displayed with this one. As you can tell from this screenshot, there are quite a few discrepancies when it comes to BA Score, number of ratings and rDev.

    The BA score is the brewery's beer average (3.61) based on 128 total ratings.
    The rDev shown is based on the 4.11 average place rating, based on 16 total ratings. Hope this helps!:beers:

    I believe the BA score (3.61) refers to the average of their beers scored on here.

    Your 3.9 rating is a place rating - the place rating on BA is 4.11 hence why you have a -5.1% rDev.

    Right, I guess that makes sense. However, I think it's an easy mistake to make with the way that scores are currently displayed.

    Maybe consider changing "BA SCORE" to "BA BEER SCORE" to make it clearer what that score actually refers to.
