New Badge: Sierra Nevada Premium PILS
Sierra Nevada Premium PILS Badge We started Sierra Nevada with a purpose: to bring together the craftsmanship of European brewing with distinctive American flavor. We continue this legacy with PILS, our premium craft lager. Crisp and clean with an innovative twist for a refreshingly smooth taste – it’s the best of both worlds. Our brewery has always been inspired by the German brewing process. We imported real copper German kettles to brew our beer. Like the legendary European pilsners that inspired us, PILS is brewed with precision and balance. Its brilliant clarity and tight, white foam reveal our commitment to quality, from selecting the purest ingredients to our brewing process. « I’ve enjoyed beers all over the world, but there’s something special about a proper Pilsner at a European pub. Crisp, refreshing, and served in a smaller glass to keep it at the ideal temperature and flavor—it’s how Pils is meant to be enjoyed. » – Brian Grossman, Chief Brewer Badge Criteria: Check in one (1) Sierra Nevada Premium PILS Craft Lager between November 26, 2025 and December 26, 2025.
New Badge: Savor the Celebration
Savor the Celebration Badge Hop harvest happens once a year, sending brewers to the Pacific Northwest to choose the hops they’ll use for months to come. We certainly do that— »hop selection » for all our beers—but Celebration Fresh Hop IPA gets its own 800-mile road trip through Washington and Oregon to hand-pick the ultimate fresh hops for citrus, pine, and floral flavors at their most intense. Once the hops come down, we race the harvest home to brew Celebration IPA within a few weeks. That’s the core of fresh hop beers: brew right away for maximum hop aroma and flavor. Cheers to the moments that make us want to celebrate! Watch the 2025 story of Celebration Fresh Hop IPA.

Looking Ahead As Untappd grows to support more beverage types, we’re also focusing on the features and improvements that matter most to the community. Over the coming months, you’ll begin to see several updates designed to strengthen Untappd’s foundation while expanding opportunities for discovery: A new end-of-year experience and beer boxWe’re building a refreshed end-of-year recap that highlights your annual drinking trends in smarter and more personalized ways. Alongside it, we’re planning an updated end-of-year beer box for users who want a curated way to celebrate their year with beer. New beer, mead, and cider stylesEvery year, our volunteer moderation team reviews style proposals and votes on additions to the beer, mead, and cider lists. This year’s slate is in progress with the hopes of giving brewers and drinkers more accurate, modern categories for check-ins. A redesigned Untappd app for iOS and Android We’re actively working on a redesign of the Untappd app that aligns with the latest designs and features on both major operating systems. This includes cleaner navigation, improved accessibility, modernized visuals, and a smoother overall experience while staying familiar to long-time users. Badge updates and expanded qualificationsWith more styles now supported across the platform, we’re evaluating how badges unlock and exploring new badge paths for these newly added styles. Our goal is to maintain the fun of badge progression while ensuring your check-ins across both legacy and expanded categories count in meaningful ways. As of today, all badges except Wheel of Styles and New Brew Thursday will unlock with all newly added styles. These updates continue our commitment to the beer community while opening new ways to discover the beverages you enjoy most. As always, if you have questions, comments, or feedback for our team, reach out to help@untappd.com or our Support page! We’d be happy to help.
