    Does anyone else think there should be separate reviews? I've had some beers that are amazing on draft but terrible in the bottle and also the other way around.

    I'll edit my reviews when I have a beer via a different median (cask, draft) if its markedly better or worse just to keep track but I don't re-review. One beer gets one review in my book.

    In general, I find most beers to be close enough to just to do one. Once in a while, the versions will be different enough (that's usually with cask, for me) to do another, separate review.

    There used to be but they deleted the option a couple months back.

    Plenty of experiences where the draft vs bottle has been quite different for me, usually not because the beer is different as much as there being issues with the bottle in some regard or if the bottle is CO2 and the tap experience NO2.

    I find 21st Amendment Back in Black to be not drinkable in can, but it was 2$ on draft at the local craft bar, and was way better than horrible. The price helped.

    As far as separate reviews go.. It seems just like more trouble than worth... As long as everyone lists their vessel of containment in the review.

    BeerAdvocate is one review, per beer, per member. We will not be opening the system up to multiple reviews again.
