Refreshments

I like beer.

But I don't like all beer. These reviews are my attempt to figure out which beers I do or do not like, and preserve my thoughts for the next time I find myself in front of a supermarket shelf and can't remember if I like something or not.

Obviously these reviews are just my own opinion, but I will be ranking the drinks from 0-5, where 0 is something I find undrinkable and 5 is a really tasty drink that I want more of.
