Top 250 vs Bottom 100

Top: 22 plus around 15 I didn't review
Fame: 26 + a couple
Bottom: 1 + around 12
New:.10.+ a couple

 

Top 250 - 20/250
Beers Of Fame - 52/250
Top New Beers - 4/250
Bottom of The List - 12/100

 

Top 250 - 12 (need to work on this)
Bottom 100 - 2 (Don't need to work on this)
Beers of Fame - 54 (Pleasantly surprised by this, must be my classic rock mentality)
New - 1 (Pretty sad. Must try harder, as my math teacher used to say)

As always, drink what you like, like what you drink. Cheers!

 

I've only had one from the Top 250 so far (Bourbon County) -- at one point it was two, then Stone IPA got pushed off the list by so many new beers.

I've had five of the "Bottom 100," and I've seen 41 others on that list in stores nearby. I could "tick" nearly half of that list if I really wanted to drink that much cheap crappy beer just for the sake of saying I had. XD

And the Beers of Fame list is the one I've had the most of -- 8 so far (though I've only reviewed three of those.) I saw a lot of names I've seen in the stores around here on that list, too, so I could probably check off a good chunk of that list if I was actively trying to check off as many beers as possible. Of course, this week I'm hardly having any beer at all since I've been sick... maybe next week.

I didn't even check the Top New Beers list since I can almost guarantee I haven't had any of them.

 

Top 250: 15
Beers of Fame: 36
Bottom 100: 0 That I've rated. I've actually probably had most of the American Adjunct Lagers at one time or another.

 

I just saw this now.....great post....agree with everything you said! I noticed that too about Bud, Miller, and Coors....it's like people just started their beer drinking careers with hazy IPA's...haha...

 

These are my stats, but I will say that while browsing the lists I noticed stuff I hadn't reviewed/rated but have tried before so these numbers are probably a bit higher overall.

Top 250 - 55
Beers of Fame - 61
Top New Beers - 16
Bottom of the List - 19
Best In State - 78

Yep, I'm a local guy! As you can see haha. Have all the top 15 in Ohio too!

 

Top 250, 19 beers with a lot right below that, bottom 100, 45 beers

 

TOPZ: 12 (I was happily floored to see FBS so high on the list.)
BOF: 40 (Really surprised at some of the beers that were there, and some that weren't, but, good overall !!)
IN THE DITCH: 23, probably more....can't quite remember back to 1983. Stroh's was the shat, at that particular party.

 

• Top 250: 11
• Bottom 100: 2
• New: 0.
• Beers of Fame: 29.

 

Top 250- 58
Bottom 100- 30
Beers of Fame- 29
Top New Beers- 19

 

This is why I need to get out more. Also, why I have a hard time "rating" beer. I've had 3 or 4 of the top 250. Pliny, and something breakfast stout eee or 2.... And, I didn't care for the pliny.

 

Top 250: 249
Beers of Fame: 174
New: 31

 

Which one are you missing?

 

22 top beers
9 bottom feeders
79 Beers of Fame

Like the OP, my number of top beers regularly shrinks as it is impossible to keep up.

The Beers of Fame are a much better barometer.

 

Keene Idea from Alpine. Hasn't been brewed since January 2016 and then only growlers. I hear they plan to make it sometime this summer.

 

I'm actually impressed by my BoF numbers....as well as my bottom ones too. There may actually be more since i tend to forget which I've had in my life.

Top 250: 36
Beers of Fame: 107
Top New Beers: 15
Bottom 100: 41

 

I am in the same boat as you...Only missing Keene Idea....

I am at 237/250 but have 12 in my cellar waiting for me to drink them....

I have a buddy in NC that is on the same quest and he is only missing Ann...

 

Top 250: 30
Beers of Fame: 60
Bottom 100: 2 (Although I've had a lot more than that in my life. That's since I joined BA...)
