[McKBrew]

Beat you by a whopping 1 point.

 

[mkling]

I got an 86 -- lived in Seattle from 1986-1991.

 

[shecky]

71. I need to study. Too many questions about Pike. Don't get that stuff out here.

 

[JMG680]

75, I need to start studying

 

[SkewedBrewing]

79 as well...

 

[Bob]

Weird. I didn't get any Washington State history questions. I did get some 'wrong', but the questions were bogus. Like the one about Xs stamped on kegs. Bollocks!

[flyangler18]

88. Go me.

 

[Bopper]

66 (I can't see the chalk board from the back of the class). Lots of questions I did not know. - I have the process down alright but need to study the history

(10 chars)

 

[Bernie Brewer]

Some of their answers were wrong, too, for example, after malt germinates, it is kilned, not roasted. BTW I got a 75..........

Yeah, yeah.....that is what it was..... And you kept talking to me.
I got 65. That'll teach you to cheat off my paper!

Alright...alright I CHEATED. I admit it. I'll see you in detention

 

[babalu87]

76 and tried to hit the back button on one I missed

They should do one with Sam Adams, this test is tilted to the Left Coast

 

[bull8042]

One I didn't like, "Mashing is the process that converts starch to _________."
The correct answer is not on the list of available options.... Frikin' left coast trickery!!!

 

[BarleyWater]

Their correct answer was enzymes, but that isn't correct at all. They also said the Reinheitsgebot allowed only barley malt, water and hops, but I'm pretty sure I've had a German Hefeweizen that had some wheat malt in there.

I got an 80.

As with any standardized test, you have to pick the answer that is closest to the truth. You're from Texas, didn't you take the TAAS test in highschool?

 

[McKBrew]

My Navy test taking skills came into play here as well. Typically the longest answer is the correct one.

 

[dzamba]

I got 69.

 

[shecky]

I got 69.

Lucky bastard, getting 69 in the middle of a Tuesday afternoon.

 

[Brooklyn-Brewtality]

86/100

not bad

 

[ohiobrewtus]

I got 140, you are all weak!

 

[Brooklyn-Brewtality]

I got 140, you are all weak!

it doesn't count if you take it 3 times and add all the scores up.

 

[shecky]

I got 140, you are all weak!

I see you got the bad link to the SATs.

 

[mmb]

80/100

WTF is Pike's anyway? I kept getting questions about Pike's this and Pike's that.

 

[ohiobrewtus]

it doesn't count if you take it 3 times and add all the scores up.

Wait, you only took it 3 times?

Seriously, I got an 85. Damn monks and their X's.

A brewery/brewpub in Seattle. Great place.

 

[wildwest450]

75 ---------------

 

[IrregularPulse]

I was disappointed with my 77 till I saw I wasn't the lowest score. Woohoo.

 

[bull8042]

Ah, you blow goats! Whoohoo THAT!

 

[wbgv]

I got a 71...not too bad for a beginner !

 

[IrregularPulse]

How do you know which ones you got right and which ones you got wrong?

 

[bashe]

69 baby......

 

[john from dc]

82. yeah, starch isn't converted into enzymes and beer was obviously in europe before the first crusade. there are a few other poorly worded questions but those two were obviously wrong.

they were right about the rheinheitsgebot, it did forbid the use of wheat malt in beer because it was considered wasteful when the wheat was needed for bread. bavarian royalty, however, were not subject to the law and continued to brew wheat beer (notably at the hofbrauhaus in munich).

 

[cubbies]

80.

Yeah, some of the questions were not very clear and there were some directly relating to the brewery that I had no idea of. Otherwise, a fun quiz.

 

[homebrewer_99]

I got a 79, but I know some of the answers are wrong.

"Prost" does not mean "To your health" in German. "Zum Wohl" does.

 

[IrregularPulse]

To everyone complaining about the specified questions toward PIKE Brewing. Pike Brewery made the test what did you expect!

 

[Hegh]

69

They definitely need to look over their test and fix the questions without correct answers (like the malting barley one; it produces sugars, not enzymes!)

 

[eschatz]

73 and I want the 5 minutes it took to take that damn thing back....

 

[john from dc]

well, malting doesn't produce the sugars, mashing does. malting develops the enzymes, but they're released from the aleurone layer, they're not manufactured from starches.
