Been homebrewing for about a year and a half. Joined a small brewpub as the apprentice under their brewmaster.
I DESPISE the attitude that the darker the beer, the better. I think beers should be judged based on their styles. Porters should not be given a high rating b/c they’re dark and heavy, and pilsners shouldn’t be docked b/c they’re ’too light, like bud lite.’ Grow a palate, and DO SOME RESEARCH!
