The Choice Course of
The choice course of was largely arbitrary (welcome to the world of The Beer Thrillers). Typically, there have been just a few easy guidelines I adopted:
- It needed to be a beer I’ve had earlier than
- It needed to have not less than a 3 star score on Untappd
- I attempted to select some well-known – nation huge distributed beers, some native breweries (native to us right here at The Beer Thrillers), and some “excessive finish” / “top quality” / “high of the road” brewery flagships.
That is clearly not a listing of beers based mostly on any sort of science. That is purely meant for enjoyable and simply to have an excellent time. Please go away all emotions and egos on the door.
