I am a server with a couple good beers in stock at the restaurant. This guy comes in and I greet him. Right away he says "I am a beer snob." I just say okay. Then he asked what we have on tap. I tell him the only two goods ones we have on tap (Dogfish Head 60 min, and Great Lakes Dortmunder).
He has never hear of either of the breweries. I understand he has never heard of Great Lakes, but I would imagine a beer snob would of heard of Dogfish Head. Anyway, He head no idea what an IPA was. He had no clue what a Dortmunder was. So I described them. He wanted me to reccommend one. So,
I am just thinking this guy thinks he is a beer snob but doesn't know much. So I told him to get the Dortmunder (a very tasty brew by the way), I chose it because it seemed like he hasn't tried much beer past a BMC. So this was the closest of the two. In the end he enjoyed very much.
It just caught off guard, having right away proclaim himself a beer snob. Then asking me all these questions. Which I enjoy answering questions about beer for people who have are curious. But this guy was just very snobby.
P.S. I though of this after reading a blog posted from Boerderij_Kabouter, so I thought I would share.
