    Is there any functionality on the site to look at a beers score trend over time/# of reviews? If not, any thoughts on if it could be an interesting thing to add? I'm not sure if this has been brought up before (it probably has), but I figured I'd throw it out there and see what people thought.

    Some examples:
    • I was thinking about nugget nectar and how there were some opinions that last year's batch was inconsistent, or in general when people say "not as good as last year" etc. It could be interesting to see if scores validate those sentiments (i.e. trended down when a new batch came out or if it actually remained flat)
    • Help gauge how much of a beer score may be hype - If I see a beer that is trending down as it is reviewed vs. staying flat, etc. Could inform what is worth trading for.
    • Just another way to waste time on this site!

    There isn't, however, we're looking at including extended stats with the site redesign.
