Weekly Beer Update: Thursday February 25, 2016

As I've watched Untapped get more and more popular (I use it although not as much as I should - myjellomisfit) I've decided to use Untapped ratings on here. If you like them let me know. If nothing else it's an easy link to see what others are saying about the beers. I find it more up to date then RateBeer. I've read many really bad reviews only to see the reviewer give a good score. Take ratings as you wish but I like to actually read the reviews not just look at the numbers. If you find yourself with extra time, take it and review us on your favorite ratings site. We appreciate it.
