CT Beer Week 2014 Badge for Untappd: How and Where to Unlock

Read on to find out how to earn this limited edition badge, but act fast…CT Beer and Restaurant week only goes until October 19!

2014 has been a great year for CT beer. There have been many brewery expansions, openings of new breweries, and breweries that have been working hard on opening a place of their own. Plus, not for nothing, but this is CT’s 2nd beer week in a year! The first was from May 12-18 and was designed to coincide with American Craft Beer Week and now we’ve got the 2nd Beer Week going down now from October 13-19.

How to get your CT Beer Week Badge on Untappd

Want this fancy badge for your Untappd Collection? Yeah, we do too!

CT Beer Week is right around the corner (May 11-18th) and, as we first told you, it’s brewing with lots of great events that show off how awesome Connecticut beer can be and how we can hang with the big boys at the Rising Pint Brewfest.  Now, the sad thing about beer is that once you drink it, it’s gone.  Well, kind of.  See, it gets caught in your belly somehow, but that’s not a souvenir most want to keep around.  BUT, we’ve got the info on a nice shiny badge that you’ll want to put up in your collection and to keep.  Yes, CT Beer Week will have its own Untappd badge!  There it is right above you.  See that?  That needs to be in your brew badge collection.  Here’s how:
