Transparent by design
How the ranking works
The report groups community submissions by normalized pub identity. Pubs appear after one linked split and rank by linked split count, then average pour rating, name, and stable ID.
What the scores mean
Activity and opinion, clearly separated
Position reflects community activity, not an editorial judgment about the best pint. Split counts and average pour ratings are shown separately so readers can see both.
Put your Edinburgh local on the map
Score your attempt and attach it to the pub where it was served. Every linked split helps show where the community is most active.
