UnTappd Potential | Odell Brewing Sippin’ Pretty Fruited Sour
June 27, 2019 | Jaclyn Menendez
Welcome, readers! We’re kicking off a new series called Untappd Potential. The inspiration came to us when we realized how many beer lovers have fallen into the routine of checking Untappd to see a beer’s score before deciding to try it or not. (If you’ve been living under a rock, Untappd is a popular networking app for beer drinkers to check in and rate what they’re drinking. It aggregates scores on a scale of 1-5, and drinkers can rate in increments of .25.)
When Craft Breweries Bite Back | Summit Brewing’s Unique Approach to its UnTappd Reviews
March 29, 2018 | Taylor Laabs 1
The growth of craft beer and social media have followed somewhat similar trajectories. Both have become dominant forces in the day-to-day lives of many Americans, and both have become intertwined – for better or for worse. In its best sense, the availability of social media allows craft brewers to connect with their patrons and for beer lovers to socialize and discuss with one another, expanding their passion and knowledge of the industry. In the worse sense, social media platforms like Twitter and Untappd offer anonymous critics a vehicle through which to hurl insults, often unwarranted, at breweries.

October 27, 2017 | Jessica Spengler
As a kid, I absolutely loved Whoppers. I’d beg my parents to let me get them every chance I could, and if they gave in, I’d have a small box gone in about 10 minutes. I can still remember the way they melt in your mouth, and am now pretty sure I’m going to the store to get a box. Wait. It turns out, there’s something even better.
Untappd Reveals Top Beers of Summer 2017
September 29, 2017 | Josh Ritenour
Whether or not you use Untappd as a personal journal or to brag to your friends that you’ve just tried Duck Duck Gooze, there’s really no argument that it remains one of the best beer apps out there. The ability to browse tap lists or track down the latest juice bomb that just dropped in your city, the app has come a long way. After a merger with Next Glass, a wine and beer identification and recommendation app, Untappd co-founders Tim Mather and Greg Avola were then able to “transition into full time roles within Untappd as well as hire on more staff to speed up our feature development and make the platform even better for the community.”
Why I Stopped Rating Beers on Untappd
March 1, 2017 | Dan Bortz 27
As a beer nerd and a smartphone addict, I absolutely love the fact that there is an app that caters to my vices. I log my beers religiously, often adding locations and photos. The ability to look back at beers I’ve consumed can be helpful because sometimes I simply can’t remember if I’ve had a beer before. There is, however, one feature that I no longer use. I don’t rate beers on Untappd anymore. Read More
