About
Beer Suggest is a niche community for beer lovers. The goal of Beer Suggest is to provide the most informative beer site on the net. This is a quite a hefty task, which is why we look to you, the user to help build this website. After you have registered an account you will be able to fully enjoy the website and do any of the items listed below.
Tagging
Beer styles are helpful in describing a beer, but there are so many styles and sub-styles that it becomes difficult to accurately describe a beer just by it's style. This is where tagging comes into play. Tagging enables users to more accurately describe a beer. Adding tags helps other users know exactly what kind of beer they will be getting if they choose to try it. While a beer may be called an "Amber Ale", it may also be "hoppy", "expensive", "sweet", "fruity", etcetra. The more people that add the same tag, the larger the font will get for the tag, letting you see the mose popular tags for the beer. Tagging not only helps describe a beer, but also helps make searching for a beer that much easier. Clicking on a tag will give you a list of all other beers that have that same tag, hopefully helping you stumble upon an unknown beer that you may enjoy giving a try.
For more help with tagging, check out the FAQ.
Beer Ratings
Rating a beer is as simple as clicking on the stars. You can rate a beer anywhere from .5 stars(highly discourage any human from drinking) to 5 stars(this should be on tap at home). Ratings help other users know which beers are good/popular. Rating beer also helps Beer Suggest reccomend new beers to you that you may enjoy.
For more information about rating beer, check out the FAQ.
Beer Reviews
For the more experienced beer drinker, you may also wish to give a detailed review of a beer. When reviewing a beer you will be asked to score it and give notes on the following categories: Appearance, Aroma, Mouthfeel, Taste, and Overall Appeal. Beer reviews is an even more helpful way to let people know what beer tastes like and if they will enjoy it.
