Brew Bowl

An unofficial holiday in America, the first Sunday of February is Superbowl day. Check into any beer on the day to claim the badge.

The championship game of the NFL, this year the Superbowl is set for the 2nd of February.

Shake it Up!

A subset of the Haze craze, have 5 Milkshake IPAs or Pale Ales to earn this badge. Then have 5 more, as it levels up all the way to 100.

These Ales are heavy on unfermentable sugars such as lactose and commonly flavoured with fruit and vanilla – creating a sweet and thick hazy pale ale.

Beyond a Shadow of a Stout

Introduced in December 2019, Untappd finally has a badge for Stouts. Simply have 5 Stouts to claim the badge. It levels upto level 100.

Stouts are the dominant style of dark beer and traditionally focus on the malt over the hops. They are celebrated every November on International Stout Day.

Five sub-styles of Stout currently have their own badges as well: Oatmeal Stouts, Milk Stouts, Coffee Stouts, Pastry Stouts and Russian Imperial Stouts. All Stouts also count towards the Heavy Weight badge. In addition, Non-Alcoholic Beer – Porter / Stout count towards the Low Gravity badge.

Hoppy Hanukkah

This badge was retired in 2020 and replaced by the non-religious GIVING badge. Previously, you simply had to check into any beer during Hanukkah to claim the badge.

Hanukkah is a Jewish festival that lasts for 8 days and is also known as the festival of lights.

The festival is set by the Jewish calendar which means it is observed anytime between late November to late December on the Gregorian calendar. In 2019 Hanukkah was celebrated between 22 and 30 December.
