This is what I wrote last year and it’s about right!
I’ve been very naughty in 2018, completely ignored my goals and promises to myself. i expect to be exactly the same in 2019.
I managed 104 days without alcohol in 2018 ( a new World Record since 1999), that’s 2 per week by the way!
Still ‘Top Dog’ in Shropshire, but didn’t do so well with new Regions or Countries.
Three beery trips to Germany pushed my ‘Place Review’ totals and ‘Regions visited’ up nicely and a few weeks in California helped my US rates rise a lot.
I just want the site to improve, survive and flourish in 2019, up to you @joet

2019 has been a boozy year again, 105 Days without alcohol, a record since records began. Over 1250 new beers. Two trips to California, a cruise round the UK and a German road trip helped with both beer ratings and place reviews, Brugge was also hit in 2019. Monthly beer shares with @minutemat and three other friends has pushed my new breweries and overall rates up nicely too.
Getting more and more difficult to find new countries, 140 seems to be a brick wall for me, will keep looking though. 2020 will start in California followed by the Brugge Beer Festival early Feb and a visit to County Mayo in Ireland in April, Hull CAMRA Beer Festival in May and the annual RateBeerian meet at Cotteridge Wines should see me add a few more beers and breweries to my totals.
I still hope this site can grow again and thrive.
