16, took a massive hit on the beer question, problem is I was drinking ale before it became trendy (7/8 years ago) and I'm only 31 and a CAMRA member.
Before it was mainstream...

Who is going to be the first certified PH Hipster?

I started wearing slim fit jeans around 10 years ago when it was all boot cut/straight cut - what do I win?

This. I don't know why they have to over-specify the answers so that they become unanswerable. Trying as hard as I could to provide answers, I scored 15 but couldn't for the life of me answer no. 5. My only four-pointer was the beer question.

Nothing. Ten years ago it was all about girls jeans, as mens just didn't come in a cut slim enough.

"You’re not a hipster but you are a bit of a ruddy, bloody bloke. You like sport, lager, ladies and ledge bantz with the lads. You’re a bit stuck in the 90s, frankly, and could do with hipsterfying, if only to drag your outdated derriere into the current decade. Get thee to Urban Outfitters, geezer."

Seems about right.

"0-15 points
You’re as far away from hipsterdom as humanly possible and are probably wearing Boden or M&S Blue Harbour. If you’re not a slightly square dad yet, you’ve certainly got the sensibilities of one. Lighten up, man. Live a little. You can start by loosening your tie and lifting the corners of your mouth."

Sounds about right.....

This. No option for eating out in an actual restaurant, not having an iPod, or using a computer not made by Apple out of choice.

Suppose being annoyed by this means we're definitely not hipsters, then.
