I made this "Best of" list as something of a send-off, as I won't be reviewing non-beer beverages anymore (except maybe ciders, but that remains to be seen). I didn't make a "best of" list in 2010 because there wasn't that big of a pool to draw from. In fact, even though I've shot over 100 reviews of non-beer beverages, there were only a few that scored a 9 or a 10, so putting this list together was rather easy, actually.
Again, this isn't meant to be the greatest beverages released in 2010 and 2011 or the greatest of all time or anything like that. Just, out of all the 117 non-beer beverages I've reviewed in the last year and a half, these are the ten best I've experienced. For a better explanation of why these products are so good, please watch the individual reviews, as these clips are only meant to be overly succinct re-caps.
WHY I QUIT REVIEWING NON-BEER BEVERAGES:
1. Now that I'm working 45 hours a week plus other volunteer activities I participate in, my free time is very limited compared to what it was the last few years when I was a full-time college student. The free time I do have I'd rather spend on my original reviewing passion: beer.
2. I really don't need the extra calories. I weigh more now than I ever have in my life and even though I don't even do all that many episodes of these non-beer reviews, in the long run those calories add up.
3. I'm just bored with them. I originally started the non-beer reviews as a way to lure people to my then "new" channel when I was moving the archive episodes of "Chad'z Beer Reviews" from youtube.com/chad9976 to youtube.com/ChadzBeerReviews. Then I had a few months off when I moved all the non-beer reviews to the Chad9976 channel. That was actually a nice break for me at the time and I honestly didn't miss it that much.
4. Wreckless Eating, Cult Moo, and Brad Jones do such a great job and get so much exposure with their shows that I just can't compete with them. Not that I ever really considered them "competitors", just that I don't see a point in doing my amateur show when these higher quality shows are available.
So that's the deal. I'm not saying I'm quitting them forever, just until I lose 10-20 pounds. In fact, for 2012 I am going to cut back to beer reviews only three days a week or less. But don't worry, I won't quit Chad'z Beer Reviews!
