I have been known to say my kegs are empty if they don't pass a few exploratory questions on taste etc.
Am I interested in moving someone to the wonders of pure brewed beer? Most certainly.
Am I a beer snob ........... probably.
Will I waste my time on a swill drinker ............... never.

thats just about right. really, not many beer drinkers would start out with craft beer. so what do they do? get comfortable with what they know (which is what i did) and not venture out to other brands/styles. all we can do is show them that there is more out there and let them decide. if they dont like it, more for us!Weizguy said:macro-beer tunnel vision.
