Celebrate NC Beer Month!

















More than 250 North Carolina breweries and destinations that love beer will roll out the barrels and the red carpet in April for the sixth annual NC Beer Month, a celebration full of festivals, Untappd badges, lodging packages, prizes and experiences that show why North Carolina is “The State of Southern Beer."

If you've celebrated NC Beer Month with us before, then you got a paper passport that you took into NC breweries to get stamped. This year we're going paperless - your smartphone or tablet serves as your passport!

When you check in a beer at any North Carolina brewery or participating bottle shop on Untappd in April, you’ll earn chances to win one of four fabulous Beercations around the state. How do you do it? It just takes three easy steps:

1. If you don't already use Untappd, add the app to your smartphone or tablet.

2. Check in a North Carolina beer. You'll get your first NC Beer Month badge, and start earning chances to win a North Carolina Beercation.

3. Earn more chances to win every time you visit a North Carolina brewery or participating bottle shop. Find a complete list of participating NC Beer Month venues here.

Once April comes to an end, we'll choose four winners at random from among all the entries. The official contest rules are here. Good luck, and happy travels! Now for some juicy details about those NC Beercations:
