Deep Blue Sea

Introduced in August 2016, Deep Blue Sea is the badge for the Caribbean. For this one, simply check in 5 beers that hail from Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad & Tobago, The Bahamas, the Dominican Republic, Cuba or Haiti.

As you would expect in a hot climate, lagers dominate the region. Notable examples are 10 Saints, Red Stripe (now owned by Heineken), Cristal and Carib Lager. An exception to this rule is Bahamian Strong Back Stout which, as the name suggests, is a stout from the Bahamas.

Witch’s Brew

Celebrate Halloween with a beer on 31 October and earn the Witch’s Brew badge.

A celebration dedicated to remembering the dead, Halloween is probably now most known for the American traditions of trick-or-treating, jack-o’-lanterns and Halloween parties.

Hidden in Plain View

Untappd’s venue badge for Speakeasy’s, check into beers at five different bars categorised as a Speakeasy to earn the badge.

The term started being used during Prohibition, when drinking liquor was illegal and venues selling it had to be discreet. The term is now used to refer to venues that have a 1920’s retro style. Other speakeasy’s continue to remain discreet for various reasons and some require a secret code word or knock before they grant entry.

Uma Cerveja

The country badge for Portugal. Have 5 Portuguese beers to claim the badge. It levels after every 5 until it reaches level 100.

Portugal is dominated by Super Bock (owned by Carlsburg) and Sagres (Heineken). Both breweries were nationally owned until the 1990s,which explains their large market share.
