However, with the amount of times I've failed to find what I've been looking for I'm sure there is some sort of data collection/accuracy issue going on. A bunch of times I've looked for a new seasonal brew, gone to where it's supposed to be and am told they've never had it. At least a couple times I've been back to the same store a few weeks later and they still don't have it.

It's still a good site and much better than nothing, but I just take the info with a grain of salt and don't rely on it completely to make a special trip or anything.
