BrewGene

Simple but complete beer rating app

IPhone 11, IOS 14. This App is great for keeping up with brews I’ve tried and giving me leads on ones to try. There are issues in execution. First, anytime I use quotation marks or an apostrophe, after saving, it shows as a ?. Also often the listing of the address of the brewery is cut off and there doesn’t appear anyway to see it. Also, duplicate entries for the same brew should be easily reportable. Finally, it would be nice if it would alert me if I’m near somewhere that serves brews on my Watchlist. Update: 7/1/24 and still haven’t fixed the punctuation issues. Been 6 years since last update so I’m guessing they don’t support this App anymore?? Shame!

I broke the magic 1000 beer ceiling in 2023 after years of diligent data entry. It’s a great cataloging data base and you can compare your thoughts with other reviewers. I’d easily give it 5 stars if the search function was more sophisticated. It is frustrating to scroll through lots of near misses when I type the exact name of the beer and then it doesn’t come up first on the list. Otherwise it’s great! Like Frosted Flakes.

Great app but wish an update would finally happen!

I used to love this app but searches take WAY too long now. Too bad.

This app is extremely low function. None of my picture will load, you can’t edit your cellar once an addition has been made, and most beers aren’t in the database. Essentially just a list maker. If I wasn’t >100 beers in I’d change apps...

Absolutely indispensable for a beer lover. I can look up just about any beer I find before risking blowing money and beer-time on potential pig swill. It also saves my ratings sk I can look up whether I’ve had it or not.

I used to love this app, but now when I try to Share a beer on Facebook it posts some random picture instead of the beer that I am trying to post about.

Two main beefs: any apostrophe, quotation mark, dash, etc. is rendered as a question mark—super annoying. Maybe only an issue with iPhones? Second, when you make a mistake upon entering a new beer’s info, you should be able to edit to fix it.
