FAQs
How do I check in to a brewery?
When you enter a brewery, you'll see a physical poster somewhere inside. That poster will contain a 4-digit PIN number. From your dashboard at beertrail.me, enter the 4-digit code, hit the Check In button, and you're one step closer to becoming a Maine Beer Master Brewer!
What is the difference between brewery visits and progress points?
Your Brewery Visits list tracks your total check-ins, including numerous visits to the same brewery. However, you only receive a progress point for your first (1) check-in at a brewery.
What about breweries with multiple locations?
Currently, there is only one Brewer PIN for every brewery. Breweries with more than 1 location all share the same PIN.
What are the progress point ranks?
• 25+ breweries: Maine Beer Apprentice
• 50 or more breweries: Maine Beer Journeyman
• All breweries: Maine Beer Master Brewer
Can I check in to breweries at brew fests?
No. We created the beer trail to help people explore Maine’s breweries, so you must visit the brewery location to check in to a brewery.
