Seven Deadly Beer Sins

I prefer pilsners to IPAs. I'm going straight to hell.

 

Love trying new things so obviously a Ticker.

 

List is a bit wonky .....


Your Hipster classification is insanely off ... definition courtesy of the all knowing Google;

“hip·ster1
ˈhipstər/
noun / informal
a person who follows the latest trends and fashions, especially those regarded as being outside the cultural mainstream"

Your Hipster section should be renamed “Old Curmudgeony Bastard”.

Conversely .... combine Bragger, Ticker and One-Upper and you have the literal definition of Hipster.

 

Apparently my definition of hipster is nowhere near this. The OP's definition has no reference to retro style mustaches or neck beards, snarky demeanor, too much fun with what would normally be regarded as a stupid looking hat and thinly veiled emo tendencies (all of course my observation). Uncle Rico was a douche, not a hipster.

My deadly beer sin? I voted other, and I'll call it "Drink what the f*#% I damn well want and not give a shit". I'll still drink a Bud Light on occasion. Guilt free nonetheless!

Edit* Changed ^ to "OP" due to @MassiveBeerReviews posting of a more proper hipster def just prior to me posting.

 

Burn the witch!

I'm totally a ticker. If I have four favorites in front of me and one I've never had, that's the one I'm drinking.

 

I don't think ticking is necessarily a sin. What's wrong with seeking novelty?

 

I'm often guilty of opening "one more" when well past needing it. Occasionally wake up with an empty bottle of very nice beer on the table thinking "why did I open that one last night".

 

Proud to be a ticker

 

You should join the side of the Angels, then, where it's not. a. freakin'. competition.

 

I hope that I don't fall too deeply into any of these categories, but if there is one I think I tend to be more than any other, it's the Bragger. Not because I want to lord it over anyone but more because I inevitably want to tell every single person about a cool experience.

 

I would have classified myself as an impulse-buyer; all last year I was constantly going out, buying 2-3 sixes of something, drinking one of each, then the next day doing the same with something different until the fridge was full. This year I'm consciously stopping myself, which can be tough when there's so much good beer I want to try.

I will say I'm probably still a ticker, I tend to drink my 'favorite' beers very infrequently because my fridge is full of something new on any given week. In a way I don't think that's a bad thing, since I've enjoyed craft beer since my very early 20's but only started really geeking out about it for the past 2 years or so so I'm still busy exploring various styles.

 

I'm a ticker....or maybe I'm an explorer....constantly trying to seek out new beers and try different things...

 

I am none of the above but feel like I must be guilty of something beer related.

 

Guess I'd have to classify myself as a ticker. As someone who just rediscovered their love of beer in the last few months, I'm loving trying new flavors as often as possible!!

 

I hate Hipsters.

 

That is my biggest issue as well. I have gotten that in check the past year or two, though I definitely still catch myself grabbing beers that I don't yet need.

 

I think you should change your definition of hipster to a person that has been drinking good beer for less than 3-5 years and likes to believe their knowledge is far superior and their opinion more valid than those with significantly. Also, such a hipster typically behaves like an insufferable know-it-all without realizing it.
