*** LA Times Review: "Explore American craft beers with this crafty app. I immediately looked up Allagash Tripel Reserve and found detailed info and tasting notes, including the recommended serving temp (40 to 50 degrees)... And it costs less than a few sips of beer."
*** Mens Health - Best Apps for Men - 25 Best iPhone Apps!
*** APPOLICIOUS: "This new beer app is beautifully designed and tells you everything you want to know about American crafted beers. From location to styles of beers look up that esoteric brew youre enjoying and become a true connoisseur!"
*** GIZMODO: "Theres a lot of good craft beer out there. An overwhelming amount, really! Thankfully theres the stylish new Craft Beer App that has descriptions of different brews, pairings with various foods, and the ability to rate your favorites. App responsibly!"
*** LIQUIDA: "This must be guy’s weekend. First the Victoria’s Secret App for the iPad, now the Craft Beer for the iPhone . Craft Beer App gives users access to “substantive beer descriptions”, not to mention the “ability to rate beers, post notes, view community opinions on each beer and choose favorites”. Also included is food pairing recommendations as well as regional and heritage information. Just think of this as a beer encyclopedia, with benefits."
*** Special thank you to Z100 in NYC for the Friday Sep 8 morning plug.

Latest reviews of Craft Beer App app for iPhone and iPad
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 :)
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.
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.
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
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!
