Escolher a melhor cerveja dentre os milhares de rótulos que circulam por aí é uma tarefa árdua, para não dizer ingrata. Mas, como alguém tem que fazer este serviço sujo, o RateBeer, um dos maiores sites de avaliação de cervejas do mundo, montou sua tradicional lista com as 100 melhores cervejas do mundo em 2014.
O critério para seleção são as notas dadas pelos usuários no próprio site, avaliando os rótulos. Na seleção, que não tem ordem de colocação, conta com cervejas americanas, canadenses, holandesas, belgas, inglesas e dinamarquesas. Algumas você pode encontrar por aqui.
Apesar de nenhum rótulo brasileiro estar na seleção, a melhor cerveja nacional no ranking foi a Invicta 1000 IBU, em uma divisão por melhor de cada país. Confira a seleção completa.
