Launched in 2014, Next Glass allows users to scan bottles of wine and beer to see if they match a preferred drinking profile. “With the resources provided by Next Glass, we will be able to transition into full time roles within Untappd as well as hire on more staff to speed up our feature development and make the platform even better for the community,” the founders wrote in a blog post. With the merger, Untappd will become a subsidiary of Next Glass and both founders will begin working full-time on improving functionality, Avola told Brewbound Collaborations are usually marked on a menu or can/bottle.A part-time gig for both Mather and Avola, Untappd monetized the venture through geo-targeted promotions, like beer festival advertisments, and “badges” - achievements that users could unlock as they used the app. Just because the beer is brewed at a brewers facility does not mean that it’s a collaboration.

You learn more about what breweries we support here: Supported Brewery Types If you do not make at least one beer yourself you cannot be listed as a collaborator.

To be a brewery, you must have at least one beer on Untappd that you make yourself.If the beers were brewed separately at each location, there would be two beer listings.For example if Greg’s Brewery and Tyler’s Brewery brewed at beer at Greg’s Brewery - Greg’s would be the primary, and Tyler the secondary.

If their beer was brewed at multiple breweries, it would be listed separately on Untappd.
