It's not snobbery to like quality. There's plenty of bad craft beer but that's not garage project.

Most defiantly is when its used to put down others choice drink because its perceived by some to be not as good as a craft beer.

Taste is purely a personal thing. People like Ryan might be surprised that people still drink Lion Brown in Quart Bottles. Very few bars would say Craft beer is their livelihood. Some like the taste of Tui. Some shark themselves at the price of Moa.

To deride that choice is , absolutely snobbery 

Yeh, there is definitely craft beer snobbery.  But also you can say some beer tastes better than others to most people.  

Decent cold lager on a hot day gets the job done. 

Can't stand most of the new Monteiths stuff myself. 

I guess it is can be the same with sound quality: I much prefer lps through wooden case speakers to digital cos that's what I grew up with.  

However with beer Im glad not to be drinking export,  flame,  ranfurly, haagen or nz lager.

Don't mind a Speights or Old dark now and again though. 

And had some fantastic Garage Project sessions in the last few years
