I'm not sure that'll work Cheaton. I, and many others I presume, brew in order TO relax. It's the bestest most relaxing part of my weekend. Although I do have coffee and a banana beforehand.

Quality, consistency, and variety of the beer. That's all there is to it. It's all about the product and one's ability to produce it.
You don't judge a craftsman by the quality of his tools, the number of books on his wall, the number of years he's practiced the craft, the amount he's produced, the extent of his knowledge of the craft, or even the trophies on his mantle. Sure, all those may give you some hints as to his ability. However, when it comes down to it, the only standards that truly reflect one's skill are:
1. Quality of the product.
2. Consistency of that quality from product to product.
3. Variety of product with that consistent quality.

YepWas that a Northern Brewer shirt? I picked up the tenth level beer nerd sticker at the NB table at NHC.
I wanted to get a 10th level beer nerd shirt for a brewday, but I would have felt awkward wearing it. Still not at that level yet.
I think these factors are the most important (to me):
1. Number of years actively brewing.
2. Number of batches brewed.
3. Number of different styles of beer brewed.
4. Quality of the end product. (last but NOT least)
5. Consistency and Repeatability
