Scan and know instantly Point your camera at a barcode and get a clear answer: had it, or new. For something new, fill in as much or as little as you like. Quick logs Snap a photo and start typing the beer name. It autocompletes from an evolving catalogue shaped by beer lovers everywhere. Add a rating, style, ABV, serving type, notes and where you drank or bought it if you want them. Or just log it and move on. New: earn caps Caps are BeerLog's bottle-cap awards. Log your first beer, chase hazy IPAs, work through New Zealand breweries, add beers the catalogue is missing, or join in on your friends' logs, and the caps stack up. Each cap has levels to climb, and every cap you earn goes on your shelf. "Have I had this?" in seconds Search any beer or brewery and see your own photo, your rating, and when you last had it.
