Are you an avid beer drinker? Connoisseur, even? Have you ever been out at a pub and forgotten whether or not you’ve tried and liked a certain brew? Well, then meet your new favorite app: Untappd.
The Good
Untappd is a great way for you to keep track of all of the different types of brews you drink. The simple UI easily allows you to “Drink Up” whenever you drink a beer, and allows you to rate that beer, and share that brew with Facebook and/or Twitter. You are able to rate beers out of 5 stars, and then refer back to your beer list later (or search) to see what you rated that beer. The app also keeps track of counts such as how many unique beers you’ve tried (189, if you were wondering) and how many times you’ve had a certain beer. Untappd rewards you with cool badges that you can share on your social networks when you reach certain milestones, such as the Artisan badge for trying 100 unique beers, or the Beer Connoisseur badge for trying at least 5 beers from 5 different countries.
The Bad
It’s hard to find much wrong with the Untappd app. The one minor flaw that I found is that occasionally when searching for beers, Untappd finds more than one of the same beer. This flaw is due to a user uploading what they thought was a new brew, but was actually already listed in the app.
The Ugly Truth
Untappd is the best app for beer drinkers. With social features such as adding friends, sharing on Twitter and Facebook, and uploading photos to share, the app is a great way to share new brew-finds with your beer buddies. Most importantly, Untappd encourages what I’d like to call “smart drinking” by telling users they’re adding beers to fast and to slow down their drinking. Untappd is a necessity for those that enjoy unique brews and want to discover new beers to try via the social features.
