This is my alcholic drinks knowledge repository. I use it for:
- tracking drinks I've tried and what I think of them
- cocktail recipes
- notes about drinks
It's stored in conceptual knowledge format. Opening it in a notes application that supports [[wikilink|wikilinks]] lets you navigate easily between all the notes. It builds on concepts in the conceptual-knowledge-drinks repository.
Practically speaking, that just means beer is stored in the beer folder, etc.
- Names often duplicate, so I generally follow a naming convention of adding the brewery, distillery, etc in parentheses, like
Stout (Foothills Brewing). - The data comes from a variety of sources including the drinks themselves, where I have it, websites, and online sources like Untappd.
I'm moving slowly to a Netflix-style rating system, which is a subjective measure of how much I like it.
| rating | meaning |
|---|---|
| 👎 | Don't like it |
| 🤞 | It's okay |
| 👍 | Like it |
| 👍👍 | Love it |
For example, I don't like many sour beers, so something that's amazing to people who like them might get a 👎 from me.
I've also had to convert old 5-star ratings, so some of these might be different than I'd choose today.
