Are you a beer snob?

The urban dictionary defines it as those individuals who regard any beer that they do not drink as piss. Personally I think they are individuals that only drink "craft beer".

I try to avoid the majors like Bud, Miller etc. but I have no problem drinking beers from larger distributors like Shiner or whoever.

I love craft beer but I don't put people down that drink BMC stuff. It is their choice.

No. If someone wants to drink stuff that I hate, I don't care. They are paying for it after all.

I get annoyed with people that won't try new shite, I generally drink craft beers, but I'll drink a bud light with no shame. I like to think of myself as a connossieur, but definitely not a snob.

I can drink anything I can out run.

Well said. I'll drink a Bud in a pinch, but I'll choose a craft beer over a Bud if I have the choice. There is no doubt that almost all craft beers are better than BMC stuff IMO, but that doesn't make me a snob. I like what I like, but I don't put anybody down that likes BMC beers.

I have long time friends that are BMC heads. Whenever I introduce them to a good craft brew they will say " that's good" but then go buy Bud next time. Whatever, and while it's frustrating , it's their thing.

no.
It all depends where I am at. If I am at a bar that has a good selection of beer(bulldog,cove,chimes), I will order a craft beer all the time. If I walk into some crowded bar that has a shitty selection and there are people all around the bar trying to get drinks and I am getting 2 or more people drinks, I will order a bud light. I am not asking a bartender busting his arse serving drinks what kind of beer they have.

Absolutely. I don't look down on people that drink BMC stuff, so I don't think I am a snob. The BMC guys that call craft beer fans snobs seem to be the snobs to me.
Posted on 8/3/12 at 9:28 pm to OU812
Yes. People who try to justify drinking Bud Light or Coors Light or the like by saying anything other than .. "hey man, I just don't like good beer" is a closed-minded, sad individual.
I equate them to adults who still order burgers with "meat and cheese only."

Yes, yes I am. If beer snob means turning my nose up at the crap that BMC calls beer, then I'm absolutely a beer snob. I'm also a burger snob, since I don't eat McDonalds and Burger King. And a pizza snob, since I don't eat CiCi's and Gatti's.
So, I'm an equal opportunity snob. Or it means I don't like sub-standard stuff.

A little. I like when people look at what I am drinking and say "what in the hell is that?"
That being said I will gladly drink an ICE COLD bud light. Rolling Rock is my favorite un-snob-worthy beer.
I feel I can not be a true snob as, for the life of me, I can't enjoy a pale ale with more IBU's than green label Sierra Nevada. But I can use the term IBU so that makes me snobby.

Generally no but I have an exception for any male over age 21 who drinks Blue Moon at a bar
Posted on 8/3/12 at 9:38 pm to OU812
I'm a borderline alcoholic that prefers to drink good beer. It's not the only thing I drink, but it is my first choice.

Some people just don't like hops. I love them!

Well put. We're pretty much the same person.
