What type of comments are considered unacceptable on scoresheets?

Snide or rude comments are considered unacceptable on scoresheets because they detract from the primary goal of providing constructive feedback to the brewer. The purpose of a scoresheet is to help brewers improve their products through thoughtful and respectful critique that highlights both strengths and areas for improvement. Comments should foster a positive learning environment and promote growth, rather than discourage or insult the brewer. Constructive feedback, neutral observations, and detailed criticisms—if articulated respectfully—are all essential parts of the evaluation process and can significantly aid in the development of brewing skills and knowledge.
