As a beer lover, myself, I can relate to this article - for the most part - I haven't gone snob yet. Whether you're just starting to get into the beer scene, or have reached draft, home brewing kit, or snob status, you will definitely appreciate this article from Thrillist. I think I'm safe to say that we have all gone through more than one of these phases, and if you haven't gone through any of them, you're not that into beer.
As a beer boaster, I think that when it comes to becoming a beer snob, it's ok, but just like with every other aspect of your life - remember where you came from - the red Dixie cup.
Cheers.
