### 3/5 — Map update

*2025-06-22*

I love this app and I will travel around the state to get stamps, but I am disappointed with the most recent update that groups breweries together on the map. Bring back the individual blue and green pins on the map please!

### 2/5 — Bad updates

*2023-11-23*

I’ve been using this app for over 3 years. At first it worked fine. Then I was forced to update the app and have had only problems with it since then. I keep getting forced into an update that glitches more than the original and actually lost stamps during an update of a glitch. This update was also supposed to fix glitches on the Eastern trail, yet half of my stamps still aren’t fixed. Therefore these glitches in the system aren’t getting fixed and only worse with each update. I’m also not a fan of the green/blue pins. Like the original pink/blue.

### 2/5 — Used to be great

*2023-09-09*

If you’re gonna keep doing updates do one to where it opens again. I used to love this app but now it’s unusable. 

READ THE REVIEWS, it’s obviously very common that no one can use the app anymore!

### 3/5 — Update need review

*2023-03-25*

I was able to get on once since the update. When I did get on it didn’t save any of my info so I tried to sign on through my Facebook which I have been dining and I can’t. I lost all my stamps. I can’t even get on the app now.

### 2/5 — Glitchy if it works at all.

*2023-02-10*

The new “update” is anything but. The old app worked well every time. Sure could it have used some additional features like “this place isn’t open anymore” and “I found a new place” yeah sure that would’ve been nice. What it didn’t need was a complete revamping that now barely works at all. Since the new update which wasn’t an update at all but a new app as far as I can tell, I have been able to use this at all. In other words it’s useless. I suppose it’s in true New York fashion, take something that works and keep messing with it until it doesn’t work at all and say it’s better.

### 3/5 — Update need review

*2023-02-07, version 3.0.1*

I was able to get on once since the update. When I did get on it didn’t save any of my info so I tried to sign on through my Facebook which I have been dining and I can’t. I lost all my stamps. I can’t even get on the app now.

### 4/5 — Great app but needs an update

*2023-02-06*

This is a great app and a lot of fun but it needs an update to fix some bug issues.

### 4/5 — Needs an Update

*2022-09-15*

Can you please update this app. I’ve loved using it, but the last update is over a year old. There are newer breweries that aren’t on it, and there are some that actually appear to be out of business. Links to websites and/or social media would also be appreciated. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Cannot connect!

*2022-05-14, version 2.9.12*

I keep getting a connection error saying I have no internet but all of my other apps work fine! Very frustrating!!

### 1/5 — Google Login doesn’t seem to be working.

*2020-10-24, version 2.8.0*

Tried a couple times to login with Google.  Had to create a local account.

### 1/5 — Why do I have to reveal my location?

*2020-10-23*

Why do I need to allow you to access my location to look at a map to find breweries in another part of the state? They are your clients and I’d like to plan a trip to visit them.  Where I am now is of no consequence to this task.

**Developer response:** Hello, our passport uses location based services to virtually stamp your passport (collect points to redeem rewards) when at a participating craft brewery. We hope this helps!

### 3/5 — Brewery Map

*2020-10-21, version 2.8.0*

Pretty good app overall. Map is good for brewery locations. However it’s also short on details regarding the brewery, such as whether or not “their” beers are brewed in house or by contract.

### 1/5 — Worked great for a year

*2025-09-16*

App worked great for over a year, now it opens and stays on the opening page. Can’t log in as there’s no buttons or input information. Did the update, removed and redownloaded the app. No go. Haven’t opened in over a year

### 1/5 — Really outdated

*2024-02-18*

You’re better off just googling local breweries for a more accurate list. I saw one on this app listed that was renamed many years ago, one that was closed 7 years ago, and then another also closed. That’s when I deleted the app. Too bad -  it probably was a good app when it first came out.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t open anymore

*2023-04-08*

What changed? It doesn’t work now. Have I lost everything? Says invalid email too. It’s shame because I used this app and recommended it all the time.

### 1/5 — Loved it but…

*2023-04-02, version 3.0.2*

…after the recent update, the app no longer opens past the loading screen.

### 1/5 — Update doesn’t work -

*2023-03-07, version 3.0.2*

Since the latest update I can’t even open the app to get my passport up to get stamped. Very frustrating.
Update the update so I can start using the app again !!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t open anymore

*2023-03-04, version 3.0.2*

Great update…app is totally bricked now and doesn’t open - thanks for messing with a good thing and ruining it!

Can you please fix this?

### 1/5 — Inadequate location alignment

*2023-02-24, version 3.0.2*

Location is off, have had to manually stamp just about every brewery.  Location/pin does not align with location of the brewery.

### 1/5 — Update

*2023-02-22, version 3.0.2*

Very disappointed with the update. Can’t open app at all screen is frozen.

### 1/5 — New update is terrible

*2023-02-11, version 3.0.1*

It takes multiple tries to log into the app (when we can get in) and it takes 5-10 mins to stamp the passport. It’s frustrating.

### 1/5 — New App Is Frozen

*2023-02-11, version 3.0.1*

Please fix the app update. It’s frozen. I can’t get past the first screen.

The app works great. It has located great breweries for us to visit. It's fun to check in and compare tasting notes of others. It works very smoothly and no glitches so far.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2020-10-25*

Great app! My only question is if once you claim a prize do your points reset?

**Developer response:** Thank you! If you claim a prize, your points do not reset. Hope this helps!

### 5/5 — Great App for Craft Beer Lovers!

*2020-10-01*

Fantastic App! It has a list of every brewery in the state and they update it frequently. You can search breweries near your location and earn free craft beer gear! It has definitely helped my husband and I visit more breweries we didn’t even know about! I highly recommend it!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review! Cheers!

### 5/5 — Excellent. Wish more states did this

*2019-07-11*

I really enjoy the passport program with this app. Been fun going around and getting stamps and prizes. I wish more states had this app.  Vermont is the only other state I know with a good passport program like this.

**Developer response:** We appreciate the feedback and love that you enjoy the passport program. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2018-05-21*

As a craft beer enthusiast, this app was a great resource during my last trip to New York. I was able to discover craft breweries in the area and check in new beers as I tried them. The app definitely made the whole experience more fun!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review! We appreciate it!
