Beer Ratings

Since I'm going to talk about beer alot I ought to post a ratings.

There are 3 numbers- I stole this from my wine courses.

The first number: Aroma. How much I like, how much I can sense, the 'nose' of the beer. Score is 0-3. Even water can get a 1.... so if you see a 0 there must be a problem.

The second number: Taste. This is the 'mouth feel' of the beer. How does it sit- does it burn, is it pleasurable, does it hit the right nerves- literally how delicious is it? Score is 0-10.

The third number: Finish. How does the beer go down? Is it floral? Hoppy? Metallic (over hopped with Cascade can cause this). Do the little beer bubbles make themselves known as the beer disappears down your gullet? Can you continue to drink this beer? Score is 0-10.

All important questions that must be known. And yes, I get mocked for writing down numbers.. .but it's worth it.
