### 3/5 — Different measurement options pls

*2019-10-30, version 3.20180228*

Would be  great to see some measurement options, other than ounces. I work with mls and feel like these won’t be as helpful due to it all being in oz.

### 4/5 — Drinks

*2019-10-04*

A few more modern things would help

### 4/5 — I like it

*2019-09-19, version 3.20180228*

No problems so far. Very very helpful

### 3/5 — Expecting more Drink Recipes

*2019-06-09*

It’s okay. I was expecting more drink recipes.

### 2/5 — Let’s upsell!

*2018-12-11*

I can’t do anything without a message telling me I need to buy something else to go any further.... I feel like I’ve been duped..... And I don’t like the feeling. I couldn’t rate this app with less than 2 stars!! I kept hitting 1 star & it reverts automatically to 2 stars❗️ Even trying to rate this app isn’t on the level!! I’m flabbergasted ❗️

### 2/5 — ehh

*2017-09-26*

Good app but makes you pay for only a few categories with few cards and wants you to pay monthly if you want to add more information..

### 5/5 — Boss

*2017-09-21*

Proper sweet

### 2/5 — Limited access to flash cards.

*2017-09-03, version 3.20160812*

I downloaded this app years ago and used it to sharpen my bartender get knowledge. Since I worked in a restaurant that had an extensive bar, I thought this would really help. I had started studying a variety of the categories and was learning a lot. It was a great app that was incredibly helpful for someone to learn about alcohol when you don't have a knowledgeable, personal bartender to ask all of your questions. I would have given the app 5 stars at that time.  I deleted it from that phone years ago. 

This past week i had a conversation about various liquors, but I realized that I was not as knowledgeable as I would have liked to be in the discussion. I went through the old apps I used to have because I remembered about some great flash card app I had. I found this but after throughly going through the first set of cards to 100% mastery (which is a great interface and program to encourage the user to study the cards but be honest with themselves) I attempted to start the next set. That is the point I realized the app had changed to a 'pay as you go' app which looks free at the start but once you get beyond the basics you realize you have to pay for each step from that point on. 

Summary:
Pros:
-well developed interface
-well divided by category to allow study in one area. 
-opportunity to gain a lot of information about specific topics
-all around a great app for learning 

Cons: 
- It used to give this information for free but now makes you pay. 
- is very limited in information for the free user.

### 5/5 — Great for memory

*2017-06-30*

This app is fabulous for learning important facts about alcohol, from beginner to more advanced bartending.

### 5/5 — Everything you need to succeed

*2017-05-05*

Easy to use and very helpful when I wanted a job to make a few extra bucks. This app provides evrything you need to study, the rest is determination to learn and consistency. Good luck!

### 4/5 — Great way to learn

*2017-01-18*

Kind of addictive. Trying to get my alcohol knowledge up for a bartending gig and I've learned a ton in just a few hours.

### 5/5 — So far So great

*2016-12-29*

Didn't think this app would help me study, but so far it's been great.

### 5/5 — So far so good

*2016-12-16, version 3.20160812*

Learning lots and will continue to use this app:)

### 5/5 — Great tool for starters

*2016-10-13, version 3.20160812*

Great!

### 2/5 — Needs fact checking

*2016-10-06*

Many facts here are not correct. Runs color comes from the material of its barrel, not its age. Also, it derives from Barbados and not China. Different types of rum (silver, dark, ect.) are from different origins.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2021-06-03*

Very disappointed

### 1/5 — Not what I was looking for

*2020-05-04, version 3.20180228*

If you’re looking for a reference guide this isn’t it.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2020-02-24, version 3.20180228*

Terrible and expensive

### 1/5 — Total fraud

*2018-11-19*

Doesn’t disclose that you have to pay for a majority of the information until AFTER you register and give up your own personal information.  Stay away.  I’d give it zero stars if 8 could

### 1/5 — $

*2018-11-18, version 3.20180228*

Pay to play

### 1/5 — This app doesn't work

*2015-04-16, version 2.20141024*

It wouldn't work on my phone. It quit every time I opened it. I even deleted it and redownloaded it.

### 1/5 — Crashes on launch

*2015-04-15, version 2.20141024*

Too bad.

### 1/5 — Incorrect recipes.

*2014-01-31, version 2.20140114*

Some of these are just wrong.

### 1/5 — Extremely user-unfriendly

*2013-08-15, version 2.20130415*

Does apple refund app purchases for gimmicky apps that make the simplest tasks difficult and charge you for "bonus" in app perks?!

I'd like for a representative to contact me about this

### 1/5 — Check your facts

*2011-11-29, version 2.20111004*

Good app for helping you memorize bartending recipes and well, trivia for lack of a better word. Unfortunately a lot of the recipes seem to be aimed more toward entertaining at home than at bartending as an occupation, and will most likely never come up in a real life situation (unless you run an Elks Lodge and have punch parties often) and a good amount of the "trivia" type information is at best partially inaccurate, and more often dead wrong...eg: "American pale ale characteristics: Almost no malt or hop flavor. Like Sierra Nevada Pale Ale". 

This could be a really handy training app if the info contained within were correct and useful as a bartender.

Very efficient and easy to use. Very helpful

### 5/5 — My type of studying

*2020-02-17*

I’ve had a hard time finding a way to study for bartending that works for me. This app is laid out perfectly and is so simple to use! I love it!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2019-12-22*

Love this app! So helpful and easy to use! I’ve learned so much from it !

### 5/5 — Bartending 101

*2019-11-05*

Great premade flash cards to help boost the speed of your introduction to Bartending. Money well spent if you’re interested in the field. Only wish there were premade tests to tale also.

### 5/5 — Great Study Guide

*2019-08-18*

Perfect for refreshing my skills for my new job position as a bartender. 
Also comes in handy for when customers order unfamiliar drinks.

### 5/5 — Great method!

*2019-08-15*

Memorizing is not my strong suit. I am more the kind of person that needs to do something in order to learn it and repetition is key. Having the flash cards has made my learning process easier than writing down a bunch or flash cars I have the tendency to lose and on top of that is a green initiative because saves paper!

Thanks. I am loving the app

### 5/5 — Must get!

*2019-07-17*

Love this App! Only downloaded it to study drink recipes but the different options on it make it used everyday for everything I do like school work and helps me study must get

### 5/5 — Bartending

*2019-06-02*

### 5/5 — Bar tending

*2018-06-02, version 3.20180228*
