Have you ever had an amazing beer only to forget what it was called later? Beer Pad by Owen Evans is an app that allows users to take pictures of their beer and record information about.

If your beer has already been logged on Beer Pad's online database, the information about it will be auto-filled for you. Using the map function you can set the location of where you tried a beer for return trips. Users can also share their favorite beers with their friends Twitter, Facebook, email, or Messages. The beer lists can be sorted by rating, ABV percentage, name, and date added.

You can find Beer Pad on the App Store for free.

Untappd has a simple mission: it wants to help beer lovers find good beer. Not just where the good beer is, but also to discover new types of beer to drink. Start out by creating an Untappd account, which can be started by logging in with Facebook. Note that users have to be at least 21 to sign up.

The Pub tab shows drinking activity from friends, the global Untappd community, and even nearby. Use the Discover tab to find specific beers nearby, popular places to grab a good drink nearby, and even find trending drinks. Use the center Drink Up tab to add beers, and Untappd will even suggest beers to try based on what’s been added in to the app. My Tab is the section to track check-ins, the distinct number of beers tried, and to see earned badges. Finally, Notices lists interactions from friends, and the latest news from Untappd. Remember to drink responsibly, but have some fun drinking new beers with friends.

Brewski Me, an app born of the collaboration between Rocksauce Studios and AppsVersusRobots, is an app that allows beer lovers to find, share, and rate choice suds anywhere. Voted the "Best Beer App" by the site Beers and Ears in 2011, Brewski Me integrates the rating and discovering new beers and breweries with social connections and friends.

This updated version of this beer enthusiast app comes with some visual updates and a redesigned "Drink" screen. There's also a new "Tasting Notes" section of the app where users can make notes on the beers they've sampled. Once they've noted their thoughts and reactions, users can take and share them with their friends via Twitter, Facebook, and Foursquare.

Rocksauce Studios has timed their release of this Brewski Me update to coincide with the upcoming SXSW music festival and all of it's accompanying parties and beer tastings. The updated version is available for download now in the App Store for free.
