title_body: What are some online sources for information on beer of high repute?
upvoted_answer: There are quire a few poorly-sourced beer blogs out there, many of whom get their information from other beer blogs.  If you want high-quality information, I'd suggest:
  
  
  Well-known authors.  Anything by Michael Jackson is usually pretty well-regarded.  Randy Mosher is also reasonably trustworthy.  Honestly, any published author is likely to be considerably more authoritative than random blogs.
  Beer-related Organizations like the bjcp or the aha and their magazine "Zymurgy"
  Industry publications like the brewers association
  Brewing literature.  There's a very active homebrewing community out there, and you can find answers to some questions on beer production there.  How to Brew is one of the better ones available for free online.
