Establish the identity
The beer and brewery are matched before specifications are accepted. Distinct vintages, alcohol-free versions, barrel editions, and similarly named beers are treated as separate products.
Sources, judgement, transparency
How profiles are assembled
Random Beer Finder combines structured research with explicit editorial review. Automation can assist the work, but it does not publish records by itself.
Prefer direct evidence
Official brewery and product pages take priority for objective details. Relevant retailer and specialist sources may support missing context.
Review before publication
Editors review proposed values, descriptions, source links, images, and relationships. New or imported records begin as drafts and can be marked as needing review.
Label estimates
When a supported value is a cautious estimate rather than a confirmed specification, the public profile displays a tilde and the label “AI est.”
Calculate sourced ratings
Ratings are editorial aggregates derived from accepted external rating observations. Random Beer Finder does not present them as ratings submitted by its own visitors.
Keep volatile facts provisional
Prices, availability, ratings, and external links can change. Visitors and automated tools should confirm time-sensitive information on the current profile and linked destination.
