key features & benefits

Everything you need to get found.

📍

Map discovery

Your venue shows on the Hoppin map, with your tap list right there in the results. People filter by location, features, drink style, and more, then save those filters and get notified in real time, daily, or weekly when you've got what they want (no app needed).

🔔

Venue follow stepper

In just a few taps, a guided flow lets people follow just the taps they want at your venue, then get notified at the frequency they choose. People can also apply the same preferences to every venue within a set distance.

🧭

Reach beyond your regulars

People don't need to know your name to follow you. When someone follows their area, you land in front of people who've never walked past your door.

🤝

More followers, more discovery

One follow or saved filter can cover a whole area, so every venue on the map, including yours, gets discovered. The more people know, the more drop by.

🌐

Dedicated venue page

Your own page for your tap list and venue details, built to feel like yours, not ours. People can follow you and opt into notifications right from it.

📱

QR codes

Custom QR codes for your venue page and follow stepper, ready for your tables, menus, and posters. One scan in your venue and a visitor becomes a follower you can reach again.

📣

Ready-made social posts

Polished posts built from your live tap list, sized for feed and story. What's pouring, what's coming, and how to follow you, ready to share in seconds.

📊

what makes us different

Built for discovery, not ratings.

no ratings
Just what's on tap

No public scorecard. Hoppin is about finding drinks, not rating them.

no click-through
Taps show in results

Other apps make people open each venue to see what's on. Hoppin puts the actual taps right in the results list, so they spot what's pouring at a glance.

no download
Works in any browser

People don't need to download an app. Hoppin opens anywhere, on any device.

no gatekeeping
Wide venue appeal

Built for every venue type and size, and free for all of them. If you've got a tap, Hoppin is for you.

no endless scrolling
Save a search, get alerts

A familiar setup, like the real estate apps people already know. People filter down to exactly what they're after, then get a clean, detailed email in real time, daily, or weekly when matching drinks hit the taps.

no noise
A venue follow stepper

Most apps give you one follow button, all or nothing. Hoppin's stepper lets people choose exactly what to follow, one venue or a whole area, down to the styles and whether they hear in real time, daily, or weekly.

what hoppin does for you

Get found by people already looking.

Hoppin doesn't just list your venue. It puts you in front of people actively searching your area, and keeps them exploring.

Land in front of a waiting audience

The day you go live, people are already there. Saved filters and notifications mean an audience is waiting in your area, ready to hear the moment you tap a fresh keg.

Reach that compounds

Every time someone follows a venue, they can choose to follow the whole area too, so each new follow anywhere on Hoppin adds to the crowd waiting for you.

Traffic flows both ways

Venue pages link directly to the Hoppin map, so people can easily browse other spots in their area, and find their way to you.

Engage people in your venue

QR codes on your tables, menus, and posters let people see what's pouring, follow you, and opt into notifications right from their seat, turning a single visit into a lasting connection.

about

We couldn't find a beer. So we built something better.

It started with a trip to Bend, Oregon, hunting for a chocolate milk stout on nitro. We checked every app, clicked through venue websites, wandered into bars. Came up empty.

The beer was probably on tap somewhere. We just couldn't find it.

That's the problem. There's no simple way to know what's pouring nearby. Venue tap lists are buried, outdated, or don't exist online. The big platforms are pricey and clunky. Local spots deserve a better way to be found, not just for what they're pouring, but for their amenities too.

So we built Hoppin, a simple platform, free for venues, that helps them show off what's on tap and helps people find exactly what they're looking for. No app download needed. Just a map, real-time tap lists, notifications, venue info, and a growing community of venues and the people who love them.

We're two longtime software partners and friends who love craft drinks and the local spots that pour them. Hoppin is our way of making sure great venues get found (and great drinks don't go undiscovered).

faqs

Good questions, straight answers.

Is Hoppin just for craft beer and beverage spots?+
Nope. Hoppin is all about connecting people with all kinds of venues. Whether you're a restaurant, brewery, cafe, bowling alley, bar, or anything in between, Hoppin can work for you. It's all about sharing your venue features and what's on tap.
What if my venue only has two taps? Can Hoppin still help me?+
Absolutely. Whether you have 2 taps or 50, Hoppin gives you the same visibility: map presence, notifications, and a dedicated venue page.
Does my venue need a beverage on tap to join?+
Yep, to sign up you'll need to serve at least one beverage on tap. Drinks on tap are the heart of what people come to Hoppin to find.
Can I just list my venue without doing the promotion side?+
Yes. Listing alone puts you on the map, in search results, and in front of people with saved filters and area follows. QR codes, sharing, and embeds help you grow faster, but they're optional. Just keep your tap list current, since that's what people come to Hoppin for.
Why is Hoppin free for venues?+
More venues on the map makes Hoppin better for everyone, including you. Making it free means any venue can say yes, so the map fills up and discovery grows for all.
How much work is Hoppin to set up and maintain?+
Setup takes minutes: claim your venue, add your taps, and you're live. Adding a tap starts with a search of Hoppin's community drink database, which grows with every venue that joins, and anything you add is there for the next venue too. Day to day, updating a tap takes seconds, and your followers and venue page stay current from that one change.
Does Hoppin have notifications?+
Yes. A short stepper lets people set up a follow their way, one venue or every venue within a set distance, dialed to the styles, origins, and other details they care about. People can also save a map filter (say, IPAs within 2 miles) and get notified whenever any venue matches it. Updates arrive as clean, detailed emails, organized by venue and distance, in real time, daily, or weekly. So nobody gets buried in alerts for things they don't care about.
Can I see non-alcoholic drinks on the app?+
Yep. People can filter by ABV or non-alcoholic styles, so your N/A taps get found too.
Does Hoppin display a rating next to beverages?+
Hoppin's focus is on sharing knowledge about what's on tap and connecting people to venues. We do not display a rating next to beverages.
What if a drink I want to add isn't in the system?+
Add it yourself in seconds, and it joins Hoppin's shared drink database for the whole community. Every drink any venue adds is there for everyone, so the database gets richer and adding taps gets faster for all.
Any tips for adding drinks quickly during peak hours?+
Yes. You can add drinks ahead of time and mark them as "coming soon." When it's time to tap the keg, just flip the status using any smart device (no extra steps).
How do people use the map?+
People can filter by location, venue type, venue features, drink style, ABV, and more. For example, they could search for venues with undercover outdoor seating, serving limited release or collaboration IPAs, that also allow minors, all within a specific area. Save those filters, opt into notifications, and never miss what's pouring nearby.
What do my customers need to use Hoppin?+
Nothing to download and nothing to pay. Hoppin is free for the people using it and runs in any browser, so following your venue takes a quick QR scan or a few taps.
Does Hoppin sync with POS systems?+
Nope, Hoppin's independent of POS systems. The admin portal is web-based, so you can be up and running in minutes. If you're interested in POS integration, email us at info@letsgethoppin.com.
My venue has more than one bar. Can Hoppin handle that?+
Yep. Set up multiple bars within your venue (say, the main bar, the patio, and upstairs) and assign each tap to the right one. People always know what's pouring and exactly where to find it.
Can I manage multiple venues from one account?+
Yes. The admin portal has a venue switcher, so you can manage every location's taps, info, and analytics from one login. Each venue has its own listing.
Where is Hoppin available?+
Hoppin is browser-based and works internationally, venues beyond the United States are welcome to join. The platform is currently available in English only.
I already use a tap list service for my screens. Why add Hoppin?+
Those services show your taps to people already in your venue. Hoppin is about more than drinks: it puts your whole venue, features and all, in front of people who haven't found you yet, on the map, in search results, and through enhanced follows and notifications. Events are around the corner too, one more way to get discovered. Run both, they do different jobs.
Can I promote Hoppin on my existing menus and boards?+
Yes. Your follow QR code works anywhere, on printed menus, table tents, posters, or a slide in your digital board rotation. Anyone who scans it can follow you and opt into notifications on the spot.
Does Hoppin work with digital menu boards?+
Hoppin isn't set up to work with digital boards yet. But the tap list can be viewed on any device via the URL we provide. Digital menus are on the roadmap.
Why join before Hoppin is everywhere?+
Every map starts somewhere, and your area starts with you. Early venues stand out most, less competition on the map means more discovery for you. And when new features roll out, you'll be first in line.
How much does Hoppin cost?+
Nothing. Everything available on Hoppin today is free, and it stays free. Down the track we'll add optional paid upgrades with extra functionality, but the platform you see now is free forever.
Will Hoppin always be free?+
Everything available today is free forever, nothing you use now will move behind a paywall. We're working on some cool extra functionality that will be available as optional upgrades later, and you'll be able to choose whether it's worth it for your venue.
Is there a contract or lock-in?+
No. Hoppin is free, so there's nothing to cancel and nothing to pay. If we add optional paid upgrades later, they'll be month to month with no lock-in.
