 Re:Brew enhances the East Atlanta Beer Festival experience

Big news in the beer world!

LBi, the independent global marketing and technology agency, has partnered with the East Atlanta Beer Festival to create an iPhone application to enhance the festival experience. Designed for the iPhone, Re:Brew lets festival-goers see what’s pouring, rate their favorites and share notes with friends—enhancing the festival experience one beer at a time.

The East Atlanta Beer Festival (www.eastatlantabeerfest.com) is an annual non-profit event raising funds for the community and features over 200 craft beers, good food, live music and fun for ages 21 and up. The event takes place this Saturday, May 21 from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. in East Atlanta Village’s Brownwood Park, and festival-goers can download Re:Brew for free, to make navigating the festival easier and more fun.

The Re:Brew app offers a complete list of festival beers and vendors. Just released in the iTunes app store, it also features:

Beer descriptions and locations of the beers at the festival
Top 10 list that shows crowd favorites
