Hello people, this is our first experience in crowdfunding so do not judge us too strictly.
Who we are?
Let me introduce our team. My name is Patrice, my partner's name is Alexey and we are FunLogics. I used to be working as marketing manager in a number of companies and ended-up as a head of marketing department in a beer distribution company, Alexey runs an IT business since 2004, his team helps us with development.
Both of us spent a lot of time working on tasks of different customers, though most of them were completed successfully, we had feeling that we can start our own project, this is how BrewMapp was born!
What we do?
When I started working with beers, I fall in love with the drink… I wanted to know more about it and finally stumbled across name of Michael Jackson (he is also a king but in beer statistics). He was the first author to classify beer styles from different countries. In 70's his works were perfect source of knowledge for budding home-brewers on the verge of craft revolution as well as ordinary beer lovers from all over the world.
Michael’s work inspired me I wanted to spread the knowledge beyond beer professionals and brewers, down to the ground where bars and fun is. That is how BrewMapp was born, it helps people to navigate in a world of beers, bars and breweries and educate one selves as well as share their experience with others.

Why we are here?
We’re developing and perfect BrewMapp for more than two years and our resources start running low, so we decided to ask for your support people.
Our goal is 63 400 USD, it’s an equivalent of 4M rubles. That is two thirds of what we already invested in the project. We plan to spend this money three major purposes.
• Development of android version, it’s almost there, but we need additional chips to polish it and set it sail.
• Promotion, we do our best to make beer lovers hear our voice through various methods from personal recommendations at beer fests and meetings with bar owners to SMM and BTL campaigns but profound digital campaigns are quite pricey.
• Updating and management of our database of beers and bars. BrewMapp concept is quite simple, we provide a platform and users upload data, but management and moderation of a global database takes resources.
Rewards
We would conduct a couple of private online tastings of interesting beers together with @PUBSMOSCOW one of the most thorough pub, beer and liquor expert blogs. Get your link for donation over 10$
Together with our friends from Tweed & Stout® we prepared stylish t-shirts for these who would contribute over 50$, as well as link to online tasting broadcast.
These who would contribute over 100$ shall receive a personal gratitude post in BrewMapp as well as in all our social accounts and of course all listed above perks!
Nevertheless, any donation would be a great help for us, thank you very much in advance.
It’s all about the money?
Though BrewMapp was born in Russia, but doubtlessly it’s a global project! If you are in Memphis, Malaga, Perth, Nimes, Bruges, Moscow or Reykjavik simply add a bar you love or brews brewed by your neighboring brewery as well as some info about the brewery itself, make a couple of check ins and share a BrewMapp link in your social accounts, this would be a great contribution also!
We are looking for partners globally, so if you know how to support the project, please feel free to contact us.
Let’s share the diversity of beers together!
