Beers of 2012


After starting to keep track of the various beers that I drank over the course of 2011, I found that it was a bug that I couldn't shake off. I just had too much fun looking back through the list, comparing it to what was available in whatever bar I was hanging out in, plus, it really helped me just remember more about beer.

So this is definitely not as well laid out and organised as last years list as I decided to try a different tact this year, listing them in the chronological order in which I consumed them. I am not sure the real value of having this, but if you're interested,m you can check out some of my reviews and some beers I definitely recommend checking out.
