I've gone through a few of these over the years, but I like to think that I've reached an enlightened point in my life where these categories no longer apply. If I had to pick one, I'm probably closest to "the Asshole". Or, I'd add a sub-category under the "Self-important Homebrewer": Is experienced and doesn't give a damn what you drink because he knows his is better.

Yeah, I haven't fit in any of these before, but I definitely know people who do. I would have been a category under "homebrewer who endlessly talked about beer and insisted you try some of his" years ago. But thankfully that was before homebrewing and craft brewing was really on the national satirical radar. I had progressed past that by then, hopefully to "homebrewing ninja who brewed kick-ass beer and had it on tap  and you were lucky to be his friend and get to drink some with him." ;)

Love the portraits. Also love that they obviously know their beer terminology.
Don't let the bastards cheer you up.
