A badge sponsored by Asahi, simply check in an Asahi Super Dry between 1 November 2019 and 31 January 2020 to claim the badge. Have another one to get to level 2, all the way to level 5 for 5 of them.
Asahi has sponsored badges before on untappd, most notably Asahi Karakuchi and Go Premium Lager in 2018. While Asahi Karakuchi was essentially the same as this badge, Go Premium Lager included several other Asahi brands: Grolsch, Peroni, Pilsner Urquell and Meantime London Lager.
This sponsored badge was originally avaliable for 12 months from 20 September 2018 until the 20 September 2019. It has since been extended until 2021.
Paid for by the U.S. Brewers Association, check into a beer made by an independent American brewery to get it. 5 check ins gets you to level two, and then you level up every 5 after that, upto level 100.
The badge promotes the Association’s independent craft brewer seal, which was launched in 2017. This is avaliable to brewers who brew less than 6 million barrels a year and have no more than 25% of their brewery owned by a large, none craft company. To date over 4000 brewers display the seal, so there are plenty of beers to choose from for this badge.
Visit the Brewers Association’s site for a full list of breweries that qualify as independent.

Seeing as I covered American Craft Beer Week yesterday, it would be remiss of me not to mention that it is also Dutch Beer Week.
For this one, check into three different Dutch beers between 16 and 26 May. This one isn’t limited to craft beers, so if Heineken, Heineken Light and Groschl are your thing, go wild.
This badge has been around since 2012 and is a sponsored badge.
And just a note for consistencies sake, I usually won’t be covering sponsored badges on the blog here as there are so many it’s almost an impossible task. However, badges that have been around a while and are also relatively achievable all around the world will usually get a mention.
For this badge, check-in to any beer from an independent American craft brewery between 13th May and 19th May.
That means any American beer produced by a brewery classified on Untappd as a Regional, Micro, or Nano Brewery, or a Brew Pub.
Sponsored by the Brewers Association (of America), this badge has been offered every year since 2011 to celebrate American Craft Beer Week. The Brewers Association also publish a list of breweries that qualify as independent.
