Menus, not check-ins

keggly.beer is built by reading what venues actually publish: their menus.

Most beer apps rank beers by check-ins — what enthusiasts log. Logging skews to novelty and hype, and it tells you what someone drank last month, not what's poured around you today.

We take the other route: we continuously read published venue menus — websites, menu photos, ordering platforms — across 40 cities and 1,528 tracked places. That gives us the supply side of beer: what's actually on taps and shelves, how deep a venue's list is, and (increasingly) at what price.

Honesty rules we hold ourselves to:

— Every availability figure carries a freshness date: when we last read that menu.
— Where our coverage is thin, we say so instead of pretending.
— Curated picks are labeled as picks by people, never presented as data.
— We never claim consumption from menus: published ≠ drunk.

The guide side — 307 beer styles explained in plain words — is free to read and free to cite. Drink less. Explore.
