Craft Beer App App Reviews

Nice look and design - lacking much though

Good job making a nice looking app. But content is desperately lacking. No way to add our own favorites or keep track of our own cellar. Rated a 3* on hopes of improvements :)

Pathetic

What a waste of time and money. This app doesnt know about most of the good beer in the western states. Dont bother with this until their database is up to date.

Not quite there yet..

Great idea, which adds the third star. Needs a better search option where you can search by state, and a much larger database. Seems like many good beers arent in the app.

Ehhh

Good idea in practice but lacking a huge amount of craft beers. If you live in southern california go to a Eureka! Burger if you want to drink/learn about great craft beers. Dont rely on this mediocre app

Informative, fun and useful - something I can

There is so much great stuff in this update, I dont know where to begin... The location feature alone should be enough to have you buy it, but they have also added streamed videos from some brewers and the new social sharing aspects are great. The maps of the closest breweries alone is worth the price. Its entertaining as well as having great details about all the beers. Great job!

I love beer

This app is awesome except for the glaring omission of a ton of great breweries. They need to get it together. Worst case they should have an "add a brewery" section

Nearly worthless

This app is nearly worthless. Ive pulled it out at a local bar to check out some of the 75 beers on tap and barely a handful of them were in the data base. Of the major local breweries that I checked, most of their beers included in the data base are seasonal or special run batches from a year or two ago and will never be available again. Several sizable local breweries arent even included at all. If you want to use this at the bar to help select your next pint, good luck. The data base is too small and out of date.

crazy cool beer app

love this app, very professional design (doesnt have that cheap beer app feeling), good reviews and cool brewery location feature. even has Fullsteam Brewery from my hometown in Durham, NC, but Id like to see a few more beers from my region... get this app though, its definitely solid and they update it.

Disappointing

I have dozens and dozens of apps and within a few minutes Ill know if an app is any good. I dont know where to start with this app. It has nothing appealing. I searched for a beer brand Southern Tier and it found 3 names. Thats poor. The navigation is poor. I asked it to search for craft beer near me and it returned nothing. 99c wasted.

Fantastic app to find new brews from across the country. Great when you travel and want to find regional and hard to find beers. Video feature and in app GPS are really what sets this app apart from the rest. Truly a beer aficionados guide!

Still growing

I downloaded this app with the intention of getting some ideas for new craft beers to try. Sadly, it was missing some of the key beers that Im a fan of, so I emailed the company and they were very responsive. Cataloging and describing the incredibly vast amount of craft beers in the US is a daunting task, but theyre still hard at work trying to build out their database. The artwork is still legacy (read: no retina support yet)--not a killer, but enough to detract from the otherwise edgy yet refined aesthetic. I like the color palette, and I like the overall UI, but it just needs some updating. Overall, great stuff, looking forward to even more!

Not What I Was Hoping For...

If you want to locate pubs and craft beers along with the obligatory "ratings" & "cataloging" functions, I would recommend the Find Craft Beer app. It is a lot like the Yelp of brew pubs. This app isnt worth the $.99 they want you to pay.

Inadequate database

I (sadly) purchased this app so that I could look up info on new beers while out to dinner, and make a decision on what to have with my meal. While there are many beers in the database, the majority of beers I searched for did not come up. Not just obscure beers, common beers from widely distributed brewers (Bells). Ive had better luck from the website Beer Advocate. Dont spend your money on this one.

Wheres the Beer?

Forgot I had this app after downloading months ago and testing at a few pubs to get info on select beers on large menu...wasnt able to find any and some were recognizable breweries. Just checked to see if any more after update. Still looks the same. Put your 99 cents towards your next draft instead.

Craft Beer App

Great app easy to use. Plenty of great info!!!

Love it!

Full of info. Love the videos in this technical yet beautifully designed app.

What a piece of junk

Poorly designed, laughably small and incorrect database, poor usability. And low-res graphics everywhere. And the location feature is useless. Massively disappointed.

Already Put to Use

Somebody is actually going through the process of cataloging all the beers? Thank you! already found this useful and entertaining with a crowd

Über useful

Love this app especially the map feature. The diff pins represent diff types of locations which is a helpful feature. Also like listening to the podcasts occasionally...great price for all the functions.

Must have app if you love craft beer!
