2025 In Review

After slowing down the beer ratings and beer consumption in 2024 (ratings down from ~400 in 2023 to ~220 in 2024), it basically halved again to just 116 beer ratings in 2025. This is the lowest since 2012.

I’ve still rated at least one beer per month since I started rating in August 2005. The minimum per month this year was just two beers (April and November) and the maximum was 29 in July, helped by our road trip to Vienna.

I think 2026 might be similar in numbers to 2025. Unless the PRBRD (Post RateBeer Rating Depression) goes away, of course.
