  • Almost everything I’ve been looking for

    I’ve been looking for a simple app to keep track of the beers I’ve tried and like and maybe more importantly the ones I don’t like so I don’t try them again. This app accomplishes this very well.

    The only reasons I didn’t give it a 5 star rating is there are a few features I wish it had.

    1. the ability to add a beer that is now found. I’ve only run across one so far, but with all the new micro brews coming out I”m sure another will be missed at some point.
    2. a way to attach a picture to the listing.
    3. a rating for each beer. Even though I do like the simple save in satchel for the ones you like and the thumbs down for the ones you don’t. I would still like to be able to rate the ones I like on some sort of scale.
    4. Maybe a quick note section for each beer so you can save your own comments about the beer.

  • Smooth design, great beer selection, passable UX

    The app looks great and performs as advertised. It's a good way to keep track of your favorite (and not-so-favorite) brews. However, it can be difficult to search for beers, especially foreign beers, with difficult-to-spell or very short names. The search results don't always seem organized in the most relevant fashion. The "satchel" would benefit from an organization system other than 'lets add the beers in the order the user put them into the app'; a choice between ordering by type/date entered/alphabetical would be a huge improvement. The ability to filter by beer type would also be excellent. The barcode scanner definitely makes this app worthwhile. I'll keep it in my satchel and hope for more updates.

  • A great start

    Fantastic start to a great app but seems to be 3 key features missing for me, so unfortunately I'll be deleting the app: 1) There's no way to add my own personal notes, e.g. was it just meh or really bad, did it come in can or on tap, etc. Or a rating out of 50 points, for example. 2) I'm not on Facebook so I have no way to share with my friends. Privately with friends online via invitation would be great, so that they can see my notes & info inside their app! 3) There's no way to backup data and I'd hate to lose my entire beer journal if anything happened to my phone. If these features are added I would surely come back. Thanks!

  • Terrible execution of good idea

    Looks like a college Programming class project app. U-g-l-y. No info on breweries. Limited beers. Could be fun but not this offering. Spend your time drinking instead. Cheers!
  • Great for every beer drinker

    I've been using it to keep track of awesome beers I have in Brooklyn. It's almost impossible to remember each craft beer throughout a night, but when you get that perfect IPA, you'll be glad you have a way to remember it. Also a simple and smooth design.
  • What are my friends drinking?

    I love how you can see your friends' list. I have been bragging to my friends when I find new IPA's. Fantastic app!
  • Idea

    I love this app. I use it every time I'm buying beers at the market or trying new beers at a bar.
    One thing that I would like to see in a future update would be a rating system possibly a 1 out of 10 or a star system. The satchel or thumbs down is just to big of a gap, I don't know maybe it's just me.

  • Love My Must-Try Beer List

    Beer Satchel lets me keep my "must try" beers in one place and mark the beers I really loved. The feature is a simple, well-executed idea that has made picking my next beer a lot more enjoyable.
  • Really helpful!

    Lots of beers and an easy to use barcode scanner. Overall great app.
  • Great idea, needs work

    Lags a bit and I'm unable to add a beer to my satchel directly, have to put it as must try first and after the satchel button doesn't seem to register. Love the idea but needs a lot of work still
