Pretty cool. Great way to select a beer when you have 300+ to choose from. I'm looking forward to checking this out:

Interesting, because KCCI showed it on their Friday evening news show...
I'm thinking a road trip is in order.

I need this...and a personal record of which ones I've already consumed. I try to get a new one every time and currently only about 50% successful getting a new beer vs. one I've had before. Too much beer kills the brain cells I guess.

DH was asking (me) to have this same app available to smartphones. That way you could go through the process beforehand and know what you wanted when you walked in the door.

If this were an app, I definitely make an exception to my "only free apps" rule.

This place doesn't have an Android app yet but they have a web site that helps you try out new beer.

http://m.pintley.com

It works kind of like Netflix. You rate beer and it gives you back suggestions.

Since were talking beer. Had a Samuel Smiths, Taddy Porter last week. Out of this world good, about 9 bucks a pint (Hy-Vee), worthy every penny.
