App was good for it's time. Unfortunately, updates were too slow and other apps took the lead with better feature sets. Suggest looking elsewhere.

Useful when studying for cicerone but given BJCP 2014 is now used for the syllabus, this app could do with an update

Wish I would have noticed this app before now. Great job! Easy to navigate and I love the search capability. Can't wait for the updated styles to be released. Any idea when the 2014 (now 2015) guidelines will be added to the app?

There is an enormous, flashing ad banner that is annoying as heck right on top of the screen. No option to pay to remove it, no way to get rid of it. It is a HUGE eyesore. I know you have to pay the bills, but don't ruin the app in the process.

As a beer nerd and brewer, this comes in handy when explaining styles to people who are unfamiliar with the lingo. My friends and I love to introduce people to new beers and this is a valuable tool. I look forward to the next release.

Love this app. I use it frequently, however, it needs to be updated with the guidelines to change to 5 stars. I don't mind the small ad banner for a great, free app, but keep it current. Many brewers are excited to use the new guidelines.

Was a pretty useful app that was definitely handy for studies and to look up quick info. Unfortunately they haven't managed to update to the new styles so I have had to find am alternative app for studies.

Straight forward 2008. Still waiting for 2015 XML feed. Organized by style number. Could use text search engine. Back button closes app. Fixes coming.

Useful and fairly well laid out. However the ads are annoying and even distracting. Has anyone ever paid any positive attention to an ad on an app? The way the ads are in this app cost it (at least) two stars. Lacks SRM graphics for styles - does have an overall chart but SRM under style is a number range only.

Was a nice app for 2014. Decent layout, but doesn't contain the latest 2015 style guide. Recommend looking elsewhere.

As a beer aficionado, I really appreciate the extensive reference. It's very comprehensive, and promises to be even more so when it is updated with the 2014 info. However, I am no expert, and because of this it would be very helpful if the search function could drill down through the tree so you could discover to which major categories your search term belongs. Wildcard searching would also be helpful as you may not know exact spellings of the thing for which you are searching.

This app is my goto app for BJCP references but there are a couple of opportunities for improvement. 1. Full text search. 2. Better back button action. Most apps default to previous view, but Back always closes the app. Very annoying.

As straight forward as it gets. The authority on style guidelines. Organized by style, not by search engine.

Great app, text from bjcp guidelines is super useful, but the ads ruin it for me. Original app didn't have ads, please put it back the way it was!

I use this nearly every day, be it for research/reference or to help plan my next beer. Maybe think about adding definitions of important BJCP items like off flavors. Would also love to see an app (paid even) that was aimed at helping study for a judge exam.
