“If you’ve ever wished you could embody the worldly, single-malt-appreciating charisma that Ron Burgundy does in the opening credits to Anchorman, but simply lacked the knowledge (or the mustache), an iPad app called Proof should be able to give you an education. Created by Zeus Jones, it’s actually a charming, classily designed experience that lets you use your iPad as an interactive guide to a private whisky tasting for you and your friends.”

Untappd:
“UNTAPPD started out last year as a web app that allowed users to share their current beer choices with others in the cloud, but last week the company rolled out their official mobile app (which is free!), making it easier than ever to use beer’s latest social-network on the go.
As FourSquare for beer, the app allows you to ‘check into’ a specific brew you are drinking. And just like Spotify and GetGlue, it will update your Facebook and Twitter with the news of what is going down at that very moment.”
