I would love to review VermontBreweryChallenge , but I can’t log in. Apparently, having a log in for the Massachusetts app is a problem, as it uses the same credentials. However, a password reset has not worked, and my MA credentials are long forgotten. App “support” recommended I log out of the MA app and try to log in again, but without knowing my credentials and having had my password reset fail for multiple apps from this same developer, I refuse to do that and risk losing my history. After telling the developer this, they stopped communicating with me.
If I could give negative stars, I would.
Awful “support” and I’m left frustrated and unable to plan future beer trails outside of my home state. This is awful.
VermontBreweryChallenge works ok for a passport, with two qualifiers:
1) VermontBreweryChallenge often isn't able to activate the GPS needed to stamp a location ("you had one job!"). The workaround is to switch to Google maps, wait until it displays your current location, then open VermontBreweryChallenge and try again.
2) VermontBreweryChallenge intro/walkthrough actually confuses the process for simply stamping the passport. Finish the intro, close VermontBreweryChallenge , reopen it, and then it's pretty intuitive.
The other features either don't work well (good luck making a brew tour if it extends beyond the predefined areas), or just do a poor job of duplicating the On Tap app (the "Beers" list in VermontBreweryChallenge is often out of date).
This lame app is probably an example of design-by-committee, paired with a lack of user testing. If they drop 75% of the features and improve the remaining ones, it could be a great experience though. The core passport idea is really compelling.
My friend and I really enjoyed visiting the different breweries. We made it a weekly trip where we’d plan out a few breweries on the list and visit them. At some point VermontBreweryChallenge upgraded and ALL of our stamp’s disappeared!! When looking into this I discovered that they reset them every however often. Extremely frustrating and now completely disappointed in VermontBreweryChallenge. It has removed all of the fun from our trips.
Nice app for seeing all the breweries in the state. The GPS location doesn’t work which makes it impossible to “stamp” your digital passport.
Passport stamps don’t work. Just a marketing tool.
Vermont Brewers gave me a voucher for my March 2020 tix for the festival and is refusing to honor them for March 2022
There are a few breweries on VermontBreweryChallenge that are within Geo-location of each other where a stamp will work for both. VermontBreweryChallenge will not let you stamp multiple breweries within 30 minutes of each other. I understand “drinking craft beers responsibly” as VermontBreweryChallenge suggest’s, but at times you forget to stamp as you walk in/out of one place and you are so close you do it next store and VermontBreweryChallenge doesn’t allow you. A possible feature to amend in the future.
Just spent a weekend tackling part of the tour. VermontBreweryChallenge needs to be updated, as mentioned by doub1ejack’s review. At one of the biggest breweries, Long Trail, geo-location didn’t work. After three days, there has still been no response from the VBA regarding my submitted selfie (for proof-of-visit) or my notifications of out-of-date brewery listings. Last app update was 3 months ago! Come on, VBA- get on this and keep your data current! On the plus side, WHEN VermontBreweryChallenge worked for electronic passport stamps, it was a simple enough process.
Initially we were unable to make VermontBreweryChallenge work correctly at all for passport stamps, so gave it 3 stars, but through trial and error on our own, we found that if we logged into VermontBreweryChallenge only once we reached a brewery we could get the geo position system to log us at the right location to make VermontBreweryChallenge respond. Then we had to be sure to log out and then only log in again when were reached the next brewery. Without this workaround, the passport subsystem just hangs (keeps showing filling glass) - probably because it has locked in a coordinate from some other location. Note that this approach is never going to work at locations where cell phone service is nonexistent (there are a few places in VT with this issue).
