Note: Sorry about the bad links. All fixed now. Thanks Andy for the help.

Charlie Papazian is making some great points on his blog. If you've ever thought about how to explain Good Beer, you might want to check this out. Here are links to the posts in his "What is Good Beer?" series (so far).

What is Good Beer?Drink beer with your mouth, not your eyes. Prelude to revisiting “What makes good beer?â€What is good beer? – Revisited . Capturing character.What is good beer? – Revisited. Lively, heart and soul.While giving us his take on good beer he enlists our help as beer enthusiasts. Here is a quote from his most recent post.

He is absolutely right. I found myself doing this on the 4th of July more than once. I'm usually trying not to talk somebody's ear off about beer or homebrew, but, they just keep asking questions. They want to know more. I would venture to say that as homebrewers we have a distinct advantage. We aren't presenting some kind of fancy high falutin' expensive beer. We're sharing a homebrew!
