BrewStyle : BJCP Style Guidelines App
« on: January 08, 2016, 09:58:48 am »
Hey everyone.

I just released a free app called BrewStyle and wanted to share it with you. It's basically a more visual version of the BJCP guidelines.

http://brew.style/

I'd love to hear your feedback.

Cheers,
Greg

Looks kind of cool but have to ask: did you consult with the BJCP regarding any potential copyright issues or other legalities prior to creating this app?
I'm not implying you did anything wrong but if you didn't you might want to:)

Yeah, I talked with Mike Dixon the Communication Director of the BJCP. I built it to help me study for the exam.

Not exactly the case. That is simply one piece of the puzzle...

Pretty cool app. Noticed a few spelling errors.

Do you mind sending me the spelling errors you noticed? It's a lot of text and I'm sure I missed a few things.

Thanks,

Let me give it a good once over again. Mostly Belgain instead of Belgian.

Looks like you spelled Belgian as Belgain for BDSA. Also, I think the guidelines lists Dubbel and Tripel as "Belgian Dubbel" and "Belgian Tripel" as opposed to Trappist.
