Scoring beer

[Louz]

I've been using the brewers friend scoring sheet and the BJCP beer scoresheet to rank all my favorite beers. Just to help me better evaluate my own home brews.
Is there a standard scoring sheet out there I should be using? I've noticed some of my local beer stores have scores posted from time to time and they seem to be a different scoring system.

BJCP is the standard 50-point rating system. Ratebeer.com and BeerAdvocate.com have their own systems based on 5 points -- similar but different.

I used to stand outside the liquor store and hand some dude $15 bucks for 12 pack of Bud and said keep the change...wait...wrong type of scoring beer. Sorry! off-Topic

Here's a link to the scoresheet: https://www.bjcp.org/docs/SCP_BeerScoreSheet.pdf

It never crossed my mind, I never had to score beer. Where I grew up a 14 y/o can buy a bottle of beer in the supermarket or corner store, or order one in a bar, there is no legal drinking age. Common sense prevails.
