Landslide
BeerAdvocate has its list of the top 100 beers on Planet Earth and the 100 Bottom of the Barrel beers, based on its readers' reviews. I checked off how many top and bottom beers I've tried over the years, and it was a landslide. My list of sucky beers blew away the good stuff - 48 to 30. I can give you a list of excuses, but what's the point, I drank a lot of lousy beers in my younger days. One consolation is that I bet that I am not alone. My general lack of enthusiasm for imperial stouts will probably allow the crappy beers to keep their advantage for the immediate future. On a positive note, I think I have only added one or two of the low-ranked beers over the past ten years. One was Quimles from Argentina that Trader Joe's sold for awhile. A relative bought it and I thought it not half bad. I have a Fantome Saison in my fridge that will narrow the gap slightly.
