    I’ve been using the RateBeer Official app and synchronizing to BeerBuddy for several years.

    To be honest , I am not totally tech savvy and whilst I like the BeerAdvocate website I have never found a way of uploading my existing reviews. I don’t want to lose my existing reviews.

    Is there a way to upload my 600 + reviews to BeerAdvocate ?

    Thank you.

    I wish there was. This would require mapping every beer in RateBeer's database to every beer in our database, doing so on a regular basis + adjusting for any changes, and then we'd need to create an import tool.

    One day? Possibly. Depends on the demand and other factors.

    Ok thanks Todd for the quick reply. I will see how I get on copying and pasting a few to see if it’s doable over a few months !

    No problem and good luck! You'll be joining a bunch of other RateBeer users who've migrated to BeerAdvocate over the years. I just wish I could make it easier for you right now.

    RateBeer is still a thing? I thought it had died.
