I got an iPhone last year and downloaded the app in the fall. Now I have 343 unique beers. Appr. 100 more unique ones waiting in the basement. Mostly 7-8% up, so that they survive a couple of years in the storage.
You can rate the beers by .25 points between 0-5. The app can provide you with recommendations based on what you like and you can use the app to locate certain beers and craft beer bars in your vicinity. You can check recommendations from your friends by checking their likes or what they have recently drunk. I'm not sure what else it does. It was just yesterday upgraded to Untappd 3.0
Untappd has basically all Finnish beers listed, even the new ones by small breweries / microbreweries. Based on the recommendations and the average vote by general public you can easily check whether a beer is worth trying or below average or even rather bad. That Pistolekors Porter has now 114 votes (only 114 because it is new and Finnish), and has an average of 3.51, so it sounds like rather good beer. Beers above 3 are generally ok, over 3.5 are good and worth trying, over 4 is fantastic.
I usually order from Saveur Biere or Boxbeers.com and Untappd ratings and recommendations have been very helpful and often very accurate when choosing which beers to order.
I had a Polar Monkeys Chair Man IPA today during lunch. Very good. I think it is the best of the Polar Monkeys.
