I get where he is coming from, but I disagree with the overall point. I enjoy using the ratings from various sources to help direct my choices in an ever crowded market. If everyone's tastes were the same or you could trust that any given local employee had the knack for accurately describing beer flavor in an objective manner, then I think this holds merit. But that's just simply not true. Now I only use Beer advocate ratings for beers as I contribute to their ratings, know and trust their formula, and have been steered in the right direction hundreds of times from their site. Maybe other sites do actually suck.
Great read though! Always nice to hear other opinions and get the brain spinning.
