It's not facebook that's the problem, it's people thinking that it IS the internet. If you want people to see what you have written, don't put it behind a members only gate, like facebook.

So people who use facebook have no taste in beer based off this poll, if it doesn't match your opinion of what is good/bad? Not a fan of Erdinger myself, but it can be a bit of a gateway beer to better things. It's just my opinion, but there's a real whiff of beer snobbery in that comment, and also tech snobbery if there's such a thing. We're not going to convert or get much support from the common drinker with that kind of attitude. A lot of the people answering on lame old facebook are probably loyal customers of the bierhaus and probaly have more of a right to vote than beoir members who don't go there regularly.

more to do with the fact that Windjammer, 5am Saint and Hophead are ranked lower.
Ironically, I get just as much as a whiff of snobbery out of your comment as you do from mine.
