For those doing the brackets

Who would have thought that some of these beers made it as far as they did....<ul><li><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/artsandliving/source/features/2007/beer-madness/index.html">Washington Post Beer Madness Top 32 Brackets</a></li></ul>

hmmm...I think there should be a bracket for each style - or at least split out the macrobrews from

the craft brews. They're not even playing the same game.

I was amazed Rolling Rock made it as far as it did

There is no way Budweiser should make it out of the first bracket, EVER!

I just read most of the "Reader Comments" and I have to agree with them. The concpet is good, the

methodology is deeply flawed. And aside from getting the WaPo to pay a couple writers to get drunk, there's really no purpose. It's just based on the personal preferences of the 5 tasters.

I would like to do something like this for Belgian/Belgian-style beers or IPAs.
