Guys,
I have something to confess; I have an addiction. An addiction to Untappd! For those who don't know it's a website and phone app where you check-in beers and earn badges by completely drinking objectives (responsibly of course!).
At first I was thinking this would be a bit of a chore and I'd hardly ever use it. Since these initial thoughts I've checked in over 450 unique beers and earned myself 93 badges, and now I can't have a beer without checking it in!
So why am I telling you all this? Well I've been thinking, maybe my Untappd badges would be a good way to generate some reviews. Basically I intend to review every beer that gets me a badge on Untappd from now on. Whether this happens will be another story...

HopCast Badge |
Today I finally checked the HopCast account again to see if I had 2 of the beers they had had in the last month to finally tick off this badge. Thankfully I finally did! My slightly skunky can of Schlitz got a run first and it was awful, before the Firestone DBA stepped in. It was better than a slightly skunky can of cheap U.S. lager, but not alot. I may be being a tad facetious, but I really don't get why anyone would make an English Pale Ale, they just don't do it for me at all!

Yay! I friend'd you on untappd- my first friend. I just dove into the gamified beer drinking pool and have yet to get swimming.
