Lists of Bests: The Brew Site's "50 beers to drink before you die" http://www.listsofbests.com/list/37419 "A while back the BBC posted a feature titled "'50 things to eat before you die'":http://www.listsofbests.com/list/267 and I thought at the time that this would make a good topic for beer. So in the spirit of adventure and living life to the fullest, etc. etc., I'm coming up with the *50 beers to drink before you die*... "Naturally, this is an entirely subjective list and while I'll try to be representative, it will certainly _not_ be comprehensive of the world's fine beer offerings. I'm sure everyone will have plenty of opinions as to what beers they would pick for this list—so maybe I'll do a 'reader's choice' version when I'm all done with my own." This list was presented on The Brew Site in 10 parts. A curiosity of the list is that for "part 8":http://www.thebrewsite.com/2007/01/10/50-beers-8.php (numbers 36–40), the author switched from listing specific beers to listing "styles of beer of a particular _destination_ that you will have to travel to for the experience." Those are listed here as "(beer) drunk in (place)." Try to stick with the spirit of those--don't say you've had them unless you really have done so in those places!
