🍺 DFW Brewery Tracker

How to use this app — tap a section to learn more

🗺

Navigating the Map

Pinch to zoom in and out. Drag to pan around the DFW area. The map covers all breweries within ~50 miles of the metroplex. Use the layer control (top right of map) to switch between Street and Satellite view.

🍺

Brewery Pins

Tap any pin to open its detail panel. Each pin is color-coded by your tracking status:

Dark Green — Visited
Light Green — Other Location visited
Purple — On your Wishlist
Yellow/Gold — Coming Soon
Red — Not yet tracked
✕
Grey square — Out of Business / Closed
💡 Tip: Favorites get a larger pin so they stand out on the map. Tier ratings appear as a small colored badge on the pin.
➕

Adding a Brewery

Tap the + button in the toolbar to add a brewery not in the list. Enter the name, city, and address — the app will automatically find the location on the map. No coordinates needed.

✓

Marking as Visited

Tap a pin → tap ✓ Visited in the detail panel. The pin turns dark green on the map. Tap again to unmark.

↩

Other Locations

If you've been to a different location of the same brewery chain (not the specific one pinned), tap ↩ Other Locations. The pin turns light green. These count under the Visited total but are tracked separately.

♦

Wishlist

Tap ♦ Wishlist to add a brewery to your "want to visit" list. The pin turns purple. Great for planning your next outing.

🔜

Coming Soon

Tap 🔜 Coming Soon to mark a brewery that is announced or under construction but not yet open. The pin turns yellow/gold on the map. These are distinct from your Wishlist — they're breweries that don't exist yet rather than ones you just haven't visited.

♥

Favorites

Tap ♥ Fav to mark a brewery as a favorite. Favorites get a larger pin on the map and are filterable. You can have as many favorites as you like.

⛔

Mark Closed

If a brewery has closed, tap ⛔ Mark Closed. The pin becomes a grey square. Many closures are already pre-loaded — tap them to see when they closed and add your notes.

📝

Notes

Each brewery has a My Notes field. Write tasting notes, must-try beers, or anything you want to remember. Tap Save notes after writing — notes sync to the cloud if you have a sync code.

🗑

Delete

Tap 🗑 Delete to remove a brewery you added yourself. For built-in breweries, it hides them from the map. This cannot be undone.

💡 Tip: All your tracking data is saved automatically in your browser. Use Cloud Sync (☁) to back it up and access it on other devices.
🏆

Tier Rankings

Rate every brewery you've visited with a tier from S (best) to F (worst). Tiers show as colored badges on map pins and appear in your Analytics breakdown.

S
S Tier — Elite. An absolute must-visit. Best of the best.
A
A Tier — Excellent. Would eagerly recommend and return.
B
B Tier — Good. Solid experience, worth a visit.
C
C Tier — Average. Fine, nothing special.
D
D Tier — Below average. Probably wouldn't return.
F
F Tier — Poor. Not recommended.
💡 Tip: Tap a tier button in the detail panel to set it. Tap the same tier again to clear it. Use the S Tier, A Tier etc. filter chips to see only breweries of that rating on the map.
⚡

Quick Filter Chips

The row of chips just below the stats bar lets you instantly filter the map with one tap. The active chip is highlighted. Tap All to reset.

🔜 Coming Soon — Announced/under construction breweries (yellow pins)

⛔ Closed — Out of business breweries
S/A/B/C/D/F — Only breweries with that tier rating

Brewery List

Tap the ☰ button in the toolbar to open the full alphabetical brewery list. This is the fastest way to bulk-update your tracking without tapping individual map pins.

☑

Quick Checkboxes

Each row in the list has two checkboxes:

• Visited checkbox — tap to instantly mark visited/unvisited without opening the detail panel
• OOB checkbox — tap to mark a brewery as out of business

🏅

Tier Badges in List

Your tier rating shows as a colored badge next to each brewery name in the list. Breweries without a tier have a blank space.

📍

Jump to Map

Tap any brewery name in the list to jump the map to that location and open its detail panel. The list panel closes automatically.

💡 Tip: Use the list's Unvisited filter chip to see only open breweries you haven't been to yet — perfect for planning your next visit.
