There’s also the risk you run of a disgruntled/drunk brewer who gets hurt fee-fees from reading your check-in and blasts you on social media. Or maybe it just doesn’t taste right to me and has nothing to do with the beer itself. It’s sometimes difficult to determine whether a beer has been mishandled or is made from a bad recipe. ![]() A lot of things can go wrong with a beer once it’s left the brewery’s control: dirty draft lines, improper storage and handling, aging past its prime, etc. If I don’t like a beer, I’m probably not going to give it a low rating.
