90%

But I noticed that is an older test and has some incorrect answers.

#32 is no longer AB it is SAB IIRC. With the Acquisition of Miller they took over as the largest brewer.

#24 is not accurate. I know tons of craft brewers who use Wheat, rice and corn but not foam enhancers. In fact a large portion use a product called ferm cap as an aid in the kettle and fermenter.

#20 could be argued. Coriander is common, but the others while used I would dare say they are common (wide use).

86% Though I agree with 'brewmonkey' that a few questions could be argued. All in good fun.

Cheers!

92% but I had the benefit of reading brewmonkey's complaints.

Would've been more like 85% I guess.

first post. I guess I don't know as much as I thought I knew about beer. I only got a 58%. oh well. javascript:smilie(':confused:')

80%, but I flat out guessed on a few, so I got lucky.

Woo Hoo 76%!

I knew more than I thought I did, and guessed better (in some cases) than I thought I would. Think I'll crack open a brew.

I got 72% and I, too, disagree with some of the answers, especially numbers 2 and 3 (alcohol-free beers in the UK can contain some alcohol). I would also suggest that any home brewer who used a foam enhancer in a brew (24) wants his head (and not just the one on the beer) examined!

I confess, though, that I guessed some of the answers that related to chemical-fizz brewers - I neither knew nor cared about Miller since they haven't brewed beer for years.

I got 86% But I too think some of the answers are debatable.

74%. Not bad for someone who's been out of it for SO FREAKIN' LONG... Hi guys! Been a while. Been back, been busy, been sicker than I've been in the last 10 years. Jeez louise!

I'm about at 80%... still seeing things running across the ceiling and hearing voices saying something like "Nano, nano", but other than that and the nightsweats, I'm fine... really....

Hope you're better soon - being sick sucks.

I am glad you are feeling better too. I hope the other 20% recovery goes quickly. Some of my ftriends experience the same symptoms after having a couple of my barleywines on an empty stomach.

Actually, I can't have any beer at all until I'm over this... TOTALLY dehydrated. So, until further notice, I'm a teetotaler. Now THAT sucks....

86... lucked out and guessed on most answers. missed the AB question, but then again don't know anyone who misses AB.
that is a good test, though. definitely needs some upgrading. maybe next week we can have an on-line BJCP test??!!

I am deeply grieved by your current state. If you have any beer you feel should be consumed before full recuperation, I would be glad to render assistance. I do know how you feel. I am on a medication that limits my consumpation. Not by much given the fact I have two boys ages 4 and 11. They are the greatest, both to live with and when it comes to limiting beer intake. Once again I hope ypou feel well and can consume soon.

85% for me, and I agree with the assessments of some of the questions. Most non-alcohol beers have residual levels of alcohol and question 24, "Which of the following would you be least likely to find in a craft or micro-brewed beer?" must be worded wrong - guess they've never heard of Widmer (or Anchor, or Sierra Nevada, or Goose Island, or Sam Adams...)?

I feel pretty smrt now, got an 82%, course reading everyone's comments first helped. There were a few answers I disagreed with, some I got right some I got wrong. Oh well
