Like beer? So do I
For the last couple of months I’ve been working on a fun little project called, Stout. It’s a Mobile Web App that lets you rate and share beer with your friends and others. And since it’s a Mobile Web App, it should work on most SmartPhones right from your web browser. It’s definitely got it’s limitations, and I’m slowly but surely working on them, but I’d like you to try it out and let me know what you think.
Click here to try Stout Beta - Visit from your SmartPhone!
What can you do?
- Rate your favorite beers!
- Add beers you’ve been dying to try on a “To Drink” list.
- Get beer and brewery info, alcohol content and other random beer facts and tips on over 6,000 different beers
- Add new beers and breweries to the app
- Follow other users and learn new beers
- Comment on your ratings, and your friends’ posts
- Tweet out your beer selections and thoughts
- Checking into bars
- View nearby friends
- Native app for iPhone/Android
- And a lot of other stuff…
You can try out my beta at - http://stoutapp.com/ from your SmartPhone. If you have an iPhone, you can add it to the homescreen and get a nice Native-like App, otherwise feel free to use it straight from the browser!
And for those who wish to take it a step further, leave me any bugs, ideas or suggestions at http://stoutapp.uservoice.com/ — I’d actually really appreciate it.
Enjoy and drink responsibly!

I knew this would be a note grabber. Let’s take this to 10,000 town.
NOTEGRABBER! Liz, you should turn this design into post-its!

Jay Robinson: Quick note on why you should always use Progressive JPEGs if larger than 10KB
Lately I’ve been doing a ton of reading on decreasing website load time, image optimization techniques, responsive loading for different devices, and every detail I can find in between. One quick takeaway is that I will always tick the “progressive” checkbox in Photoshop’s Save for Web dialog…
Awesome, wasn’t too sure on the difference of Progressive and Optimized. Thanks!
