Can I know what lactobaccilus, diacetyl, acetaldehyde, Brettanonmyces Bruxelles, Pediococcus, and Acetobacter are and be a "beer geek?" If I'm at a function and someone offers me one of the Big 3 - Miller, Coors, Bud - I'll accept it. However, I am never going to buy any of those.

Snob is such an ugly word. How about calling us 1%-ers? Or in the case of most of the Council brews, 7-9%-ers.
