Hoptender is here…

Hoptender is here, available on iOS and Android. There is also a web version that is limited in features.

Hoptender is an interactive brewery directory for North Carolina that includes synchronization of events from brewery websites and Facebook, browse events and breweries by your GPS location, rate, check-in, view calendars, food trucks, and more!

Synchronized Events
Hoptender pulls data in from brewery website calendars and Facebook page events all into one simple interface. View calendar of events from all breweries or view individual breweries’ calendars.

GPS Assisted
Find breweries, food trucks, and events around you based on your phone’s GPS location. You can disable this option and browse the directory alphabetically.

Check In
Check-in to your favorite breweries and keep a log of where you’ve Hopped around! This feature is exclusive to mobile app users.

Ratings
A 5-star rating system has been included that is exclusive to Hoptender mobile app users! Rate your favorite brewers and see what other Hop-heads are rating.

Over 200 Breweries
Hoptender has over 120+ breweries at the time of launch, with almost 90 more to be added in the next couple days. Right now, Hoptender will be focusing in the NC area, however it may decided to expand the geographic at some point in time. If you don’t see your favorite brewery, please contact us and we’ll be sure to add them in as soon as possible!

Food Trucks
Because, why not? Most food trucks in the Triangle area use Google Calendar which has a super-easy API. Since food trucks and breweries seem to go hand-in-hand, it seemed only good sense to add food truck listings to the app.
