BeerSuggest.com - Find Your Next Favorite Brew

BeerSuggest is the Wikipedia of beer information. Their goal is to be the most informative place on the web dealing with beer, and so they’ve created a site that allows users to help add their knowledge and content in wiki fashion so that everyone can benefit and have a one stop shop for everything dealing with the beverage. You can browse the massive list of 4357 beers and counting based on their country, style, and rating to find one that pleases you. Each beer has its own page listing its brewery, alcohol content, style, availability, description, rating, user tags, related beers, and other beers brewed by the same company. Once you’ve rated enough beers based on appearance, aroma, mouthfeel, taste, and your overall impression, the site can recommend to you others that you might enjoy. Through the social network you build on the site, friends can also give you their recommendations. There is also a listing of the upcoming beer events so you can get your brew on.

"Beer Suggest is a niche community for beer lovers. The goal of Beer Suggest is to provide the most informative beer site on the net. This is a quite a hefty task, which is why we look to you, the user to help build this website."

Making the site into a wiki will definitely help to make this site the largest database on beer information, having the ability to reach out to even the smallest microbreweries. This would be a great place for breweries and companies throwing events to advertise if it becomes the go-to site that its creators hope it will be. The information is very easy to sort through, and having recommendations and lots of search options make finding a new brew you might in enjoy a simple task.

How big of a problem will spam be with the site being a wiki? Will they add other features to make them stand out more from the rest of the beer sites out there? Could they add a mobile application so that you can access the information when trying to select a beer from the grocery or while out at a bar?
