Stay ConnectedA look into what’s happening at Untappd and in the world of beer.
We drink new beers every episode and add them to the #DrinkingSocially badge on Untappd. You’re welcome to drink along with us and compare notes, submit feedback in the Facebook group, and share in some beer education, or laughter with us every Wednesday.

"To go" has been our only dining and imbibing option for a year now. Have we all collectively maxed out the "To Go Please" badge on Untappd yet? This week, our focus is on leveling up the badge that shows love to our friendly neighborhood bodegas, gas stations, bottle shops, supermarkets, and more. You picked up that six-pack at the flea market down the road? Score! Purchased At - tag it. By tagging your Purchased At location, you're reminding your future hazy-dazy self where you picked up that great IPA from. We're drinking H.A.Z.Y. from SweetWater Brewing Company, and highlighting The Pour House chain in Pennsylvania as our Verified Venue of the week which has H.A.Z.Y on tap and a fantastic selection of craft beer.

New Brew Thursday, we all know it as an excuse to intentionally seek out a beer you've never had before, but it's also one of the hardest badges to max out on Untappd. Why is that? Tune in to find out! We're chipping away at this badge with Vliet from Threes Brewing and highlighting Garden Harvest Market in Holland, OH as our Verified Venue of the week! Have questions, want to be a guest on the podcast, or just want to say hello? Email podcasts@untappd.com.
Who needs buried treasure when you have beer!? This episode we're going after the Schwarz-buckler badge with Flying Machine Brewing Company's most recent release, Nightfall on Lager Mountain. We're highlighting the Verified Venue, Share House in Moscow, Russia - so far the number one venue for the Drinking Socially Season 4 badge! Have questions, want to be a guest on the podcast, or just want to say hello? Email podcasts@untappd.com.
At a new place and don't want to choose a pint of something you may not like? Grab a few tasters! Enjoy some small pours and then decide which to upgrade to a full pour. That's right, this episode is all about tasters, and we all know that everything good starts with a taste. We're taking a looking at the Taster, Please badge and both tasting a brand-new-to-us beer, Lo-Pitch Hazy IPA from High Wire Brewing and highlighting their Wilmington, NC taproom as the Verified Venue of the week. Have questions, want to be a guest on the podcast, or just want to say hello? Email podcasts@untappd.com.
Tag is universally a good time. This week we're talking about a contactless form of tag - tagging your friends in your check-ins. Since last year's Year in Beer revealed that we made it into each other's "drinking buddies" list's because we tag each other so much we figured we'd share some beers that we gave each other tonight - and tag ourselves in the check-ins too! So grab a beer and tag a friend to spread the love. Have questions, want to be a guest on the podcast, or just want to say hello? Email podcasts@untappd.com.
We love beers with a little extra ABV. Don't you? This week's spotlight is on the "Sky's The Limit" badge. You don't always intend to go for beers with a double-digit ABV, but when you do, you make it count! Be careful, 10% and up can really pack a punch. Get ready for some late night show antics as we crack open 2 beers that should probably be shared with friends... but that's a different badge. Harrison's drinking Pastry Works from Froth Brewing Co., a Pastry Stout with Peanut Butter, Graham Cracker, Coconut and Milk Sugar. Jon's drinking Dia De Los Muertos (Ghost 906) from Adroit Theory. At 13.7% ABV, this Russian Imperial Stout is the perfect balance between Bitter and Sweet, Creamy and Full Bodied, or Roasty and Malty.

We're recording this episode off the back of Beer Can Appreciation Day. We figured we'd keep the party going by featuring the badge, "For The Can". Canning is all the rage and it's not hard to see why - travels well, more environmentally friendly, and no need to carry your bottle opener. We're leveling up this badge with Thick Haze by Oskar Blues Brewery! Crack open a can-tastic beer and level up with us for this episode.

Redaction: At 15:30 Harrison asks Jon if you need to drink "Uniques" to level up the Milestone badges. Jon said that they do not need to be Unique. Jon was wrong. 🤦♂ Milestone badges are only levelled up via Unique Beers.

Season 3 is coming to a close - what a year! Let's celebrate and go out with a bomb! Throw a fire in the fireplace - just make sure your Christmas tree is a safe distance away since you probably forgot to keep watering it about a week or so ago. But that's ok - beer is here to save the day. And not just any beer, the perfect beer for this day - in this month - in this year. This time of year demands something big and toasty and roasty and that's exactly what's in the bottle. Have questions, want to be a guest on the podcast, or just want to say hello?

It's hard to believe it was a year ago that Harrison and Jon were talking about the 'Year in Beer' — and we all know what a joyful quagmire 2020 has been... instead of reflecting on the things we wish were different — we're going to focus this episode on the things that were great! We're officially halfway through our Advent Box and it's going to be bringing some Pennsylvania Madness to the show today — but we're also recapping our Untappd Year In Beer! We've already seen so many of you talking about it in the Facebook group, I can't wait to see if Harrison has more uniques than Jon did — I can make a safe prediction we both drank a lot of beer at Home! This episode we're drinking Mad Elf from Tröegs Independent Brewing. Have questions, want to be a guest on the podcast, or just want to say hello? Email podcasts@untappd.com.
