    Sounds great! Now you just need to set up free wifi in the Cyclorama so we can use the app. :wink:

    We're looking at it, but it should work just fine over 3/4G just fine too.

    I'm sure, but I'm a cheap bastard with a wifi-only iPod Touch.

    I use both simultaneously. Untappd is my ticking app, whereas this site I use more for figuring out how the beer actually tastes.

    I was thinking the other day while in a area I'm not familiar with, I wish there was a app where I can search the area around me and find stores and bars with their ratings (from BA users). And then click on it for directions. You think you guys can pull that off

    Yeah... it's my standard "in the field" app. it'd be awesome to see them partner with BA... but I'm definitely excited for what's to come...

    I could see myself migrating away from Untappd if it functions as easily and there's a good way for location entry and finding friends.. Just get a list of your beers and put them into BA, and migration complete..

    yeah, i've already transposed most of my untappd list over here. i'll probably rarely use it once the BA app is up and running

    Any updates on the app? I know that beer fest is coming up in February. No rush, I'm just so pumped for a BA app. I love the magazine and it would be great to take the ratings with me into a beer store/restuarant, etc.

    I mainly use untappd to know what's on tap in my surrounding area, so I probably will still use it. I'm assuming BA app won't have this feature.

    You don't get what? And that's depend on which Nokia you have. Currently there are many. Historically even more. If it's a modern Nokia smartphone ... than I don't foresee any reason why it shouldn't work.

    any idea when the full app will be out? i'd love to get untapped off my phone.
    also, not that it matters but any idea on the cost?
