Looking for the best iPhone apps to help you discover great beer and wine? You've come to the right place!

But which beer and and wine apps are the very best?

Elixr
Elixr is a rating app not only for beer and wine, but any kind of alcoholic drink. You can follow your friends on Facebook or from your contacts as well as find other Elixr members around you. To start finding great drinks just look for places around you and then tap on the name to view drinks other members have rated. The only down side is that smaller areas don't seem to have a vast amount of information. If you live in a large suburban area though, you should find a decent amount of reviews and data within Elixr.
If you want a single app for beer, wine, and cocktail information and ratings, Elixr is your best bet.

Your favorite beer and wine apps?
Last year I wrote an article talking about how I felt the selection of beer and wine apps was lacking in the App Store. Offerings have somewhat improved since then but I still find myself wishing there were more options to choose from. Do you have any great beer and wine apps on your iPhone? If so, what are they and what makes them so great? Be sure to let me know in the comments!
