Narke beers need retiring?

Site News

To those who know (I don’t). Can someone manage the Narke top 50 beers? Retire whatever hasn’t been commercially released in the past year…

For example, it doesnt look like Pure Swedish Oak has been released since 2020? 2018?
Konjaks looks like the last release was 2022. Of course this is just based on a quick ratings search.

Trying to keep the Top 50 active. Thanks for your help!

The idea of regularly released beers has shifted a bit, I guess. There’s those Närke beers which seem at best spottily available even if they exist. There’s things like Founders CBS which doesn’t seem to have shown since 2019 (perhaps because in today’s beer world, only the new is interesting). Then there’s the supposed top beer of all, Toppling Goliath Kentucky Brunch, where non-review ticks have so contaminated ratings that it only has a score of 3.59 and where the last actual review is from a spammer trying to sell virtual birthday cards.

Sure, things have become more difficult to nail down, but that’s no reason to not try to keep this list updated. I’ve always been a little lenient on the “commercially released in the last year” but it’s a fine thing to stick to.

CBS was released in the past year (give or take). KBBS gets released every year.

And yes, the Narke beers are spottily available at best, but at one point had a release and the Scandinavian guys should know when those releases were.

I’m surprised the obvious review bomb ticks were not deleted. I’d be all for that. There are a number of ticks on this beer from accounts that literally only ticked this one beer. Others only ticked this one and one or two other beers to bomb them.
