A while ago I conducted a survey of #beerclub participants. I was working on processing the results, and got busy and didn’t get back to it. Until now!
Favorite Beers
We had 179 beers that were mentioned in the survey responses. Of those 179 beers, it was a tight race for the top ten. So tight in fact, that almost every spot had a tie with at least two beers. Rather than making judgement calls, I included all of the tied beers and that’s why there are 22 beers listed in #beerclub’s top 10 list.

Demographic Information
In addition to the beers that were #beerclub’s favorites, I asked for information about the drinkers who participate in #beerclub. The results were interesting:
How much beer do you drink?
How many new beers do you try in a month?
How long have you been drinking craft beer?
What is your favorite beer style?
Have you ever homebrewed?
I’ll leave interpretation up to you, but it looks like we have beer drinkers of all stripes participating in #beerclub with us. Based on these results, we’ll be trying some new things with #beerclub in 2013. Stay tuned to this blog and the twitter handle @hashtagbeerclub for more.
