Why is retiring beers seemingly inconsistent?

    I'm happy to see that the FAQ now clearly states when beers are retired, but I wonder why it seems like sometimes these rules aren't followed, and they don't get corrected. For example, today it seems like Double Barrel Hunahpu was retired a month early. Perhaps that'll get fixed shortly. But, I've submitted reports on Imperial Hop Bu several times and it's still retired, despite having been been last released only 7 months ago. What gives?

    Report an Update, and have some patience.

    Also worth noting: Just because something is reported doesn't mean that we'll act on it. There may be other factors at play; like the report was wrong, the brewer wanted the beer retired, etc.

    Thanks,
