There is a neat new personalized beer recommendation site called Pintley that I just signed up for (
http://www.pintley.com). You rate some commonly available beer and the software starts to develop a list of beer you might like that you have not tried. The more beer you rate, the more precise the recommendations. You can also write tasting notes, review other people's thoughts, and there is even an iPhone app. Check it out.
My user name is LugWrench, so friend me if you sign up.
Cheers,
Tom
