The most checked-in beer of the year was Founders All Day IPA. Here Are Untappd’s ‘Top 10 Most Checked-in Craft Beers of 2017’ 1. All of them are solid beers that deserve a place on any beer drinker’s bucket list, so if there’s one thing you take away from the list, let it be that. One, interestingly enough, is an international brewer that just planted a brewery in U.S. Nine out of the 10 come from mid-sized regional brewers, almost all of which are independent. Other than those, there’s one American pale ale (which, from Stone, is basically an IPA), a couple of amber lagers (one a bit controversial), and a single big breakfast stout. Six out of top 10 checked-in beers for 2017 fall into America’s most popular craft beer category (numbers one, two, four, six, seven, eight, and 10). Here’s what we know for sure from the list: Untappd users are still drinking mostly IPAs.

What the most checked-in list does communicate is a nuanced combination of a beer’s availability as well as its popularity, or in short, what craft consumers who use Untappd are drinking the most. It also doesn’t mean the beers that are the “best,” or highest rated. However, this doesn’t mean these are the most drank beers those are still domestic pilsners like Bud Light. The point is, when Untappd divulges the beers that were checked in the most on their app over the course of a year, it means something. What does it mean? It means a lot of people are drinking your beer, and that evokes a certain credibility, to be sure. We all love our juicy juice, but some IPAs are supposed to have bitterness.) (Incidentally, don’t be an ass when you’re reviewing beers. This is true for both beer drinkers and brewers, the latter of whom may not admit they’re on there, but trust us, they’re watching. In a world where thorough, thoughtful beer rating apps like Beer Advocate and RateBeer have been left behind for instantaneous, impulsive review sites, Untappd is king. It’s the moment beer Reddit has been waiting for: The top 10 most checked-in beers of 2017 has been released by beer check-in and rating app, Untappd.
