After years of drinking beer I finally wanted to figure out which ones I _actually_ liked. I think doing side-by-side comparisons is a great way to figure that out... even though may rankings might be affected by my rising blood alcohol concentration 😵 I mostly wanted to cover popular and widely available beers with this ranking. So, I made a trip to QFC and the local corner store for some of their finest brews 🍺. On `June 26, 2021` I invited some of my _thirsty_ friends over to tackle this array of `15` beers and to find their favourite's. The beers were sipped knowing full well which one was in your cup. Therefore, some slight preconceived `beer-biases` may have been in effect... Oh no! I guess I'll have to do an anonymous beer tier list some day 😉. While viewing my ranking, keep in mind that I have an aversion to stouts and hoppy beers. | Tier | Beers | | | | | | -------------------------------------- | ------------- | --------- | ----------------- | --------------- | ------------- | | <span style = "color:#FF7676">S</span> | Stella Artois | | | | | | <span style = "color:#FFC48A">A</span> | Sapporo | Corona | Miller High Life | Dos Equis | | | <span style = "color:#FFE38D">B</span> | Coors Light | Bud Light | Pabst Blue Ribbon | Modelo Especial | Coors Banquet | | <span style = "color:#FFFF8F">C</span> | Fosters | Budweiser | Busch | Heineken | | | <span style = "color:#C3FF89">D</span> | Guinness | | | | | _`S` is the best, each column is also ordered by how much I like. i.e. `Sapporo > Dos Equis`._\ _To view this table as an image that I made on [Tier Maker](https://tiermaker.com/) the night of [click here](/assets/img/beer.png)_ This tasting actually spawned a [[Hard Seltzer - Tier List]] tasting a couple months later, hosted by @yelli_r 🍸so I consider this a success. Some valuable information was learnt from this tasting session. - I will not buy myself anything <span style = "color:#FFFF8F">C</span> <span style = "color:#C3FF89">or below</span>, Heineken was surprisingly low. - Miller High Life is the `Champagne of Beers` - Budweiser is the `King of Beers` Beers I would have been happy to have include - Blue Moon - Bud Light Lime - Michelob Ultra - Old Milwaukee - Rainier - Red Stripe - Sam Adams - Tecate PS: I didn't copy [Ludwig](https://youtu.be/l0gWQtLjwKc) he just so happened to do the same thing a week earlier. I had been planning to do this for over a month, just ask @sam! December 30, 2021
