Back in February we took our first look at Brew World for BlackBerry, and back then the application was just starting out and a bit on the basic side. The developers have been hard at work behind the scenes making improvements, adding features and even adding new regions to the application. Brew World now supports not only the US but also Canada, Mexico and the UK with over 7,000 beers and 2,800 locations to be reviewed.
In addition to these enhancements they have also added a web portal where users can manage their account and also view / edit / create reviews for any location that is listed. There is both a free and paid version ($1.99), both identical, except that the free version is ad supported while the paid is ad-free. Looking for a new brewery to go to with some friends? Don't be caught without Brew World on your BlackBerry!

Brew World for BlackBerry recently updated, brings many enhancements along with it
Years ago I had an app on my PalmIII called brewcalc or something like that. It would calculate strike water temps and other useful brewing math. I wonder if there is something like that in the works for the BB or Playbook.
Anyone else having issues with accessing the free version of Brew World on app world?
Haven't heard any reports of downloading the free version. If you are still having problems, shoot me an email and I will forward on a download link to install OTA. travis at zymware dot com.
BlackBerry Juice baby!
At first glance of the pic, I thought I was about to see "Will it Blend?"

Sounds like you have to set your APN settings. Here is a good writeup on some carrier specific settings...
