Untappd integration: beer ratings and descriptions
Updated: 2026-05-25
Untappd integration
Also known as: Untappd for Business, UTFB, beer sync, craft beer ratings, tasting notes, ABV/IBU import.
For craft-beer-focused venues, brasio integrates with Untappd for Business (UTFB) — the menu management tool the beer industry uses to publish what's on tap. brasio pulls the beer's name, brewery, ABV, IBU, style, description and average user rating from UTFB into your catalog, so the till and the public menu PDF both show what's on tap with full context.
What gets synced
For each beer in your UTFB menus (Beer on Tap, Bottled Beer, etc):
- Name and brewery.
- ABV (vol. alcohol) and IBU (bitterness).
- Style (IPA, lager, stout, etc.).
- Description — translated to EN and ES at sync time via DeepL.
- Average rating — the star score on Untappd, useful for menu sorting.
- Label image URL.
How to enable it
- On the till, Admin → Catálogo → Sync con Untappd in the toolbar.
- The tooltip explains: Trae Beer on Tap → Grifos y Bottled Beer → Cervezas (Beer on Tap → Taps, Bottled Beer → Bottles).
- Tap to run the sync. brasio fetches your UTFB menus, matches existing products by name, and creates new products for anything not yet in your catalog.
Matching is by beer name + brewery. If a beer is in UTFB but not in your catalog yet, brasio creates the product under the right category (Grifos for tap, Cervezas for bottled).
How to add a beer to UTFB
UTFB's public API for new app registration is closed — we use existing credentials. New beers reach brasio by:
- Adding the beer in your UTFB account (web UI: log in to business.untappd.com, find your menu, add the item).
- Running Sync con Untappd from brasio.
If a beer is in Untappd's master database but not in your UTFB menu, UTFB has a search-and-add flow at menu level.
Where it shows on the till
- Product cards show the brewery, ABV and a star icon with the average rating.
- The Product description modal shows the full tasting notes (translated to EN or ES based on the locale switch).
Where it shows on the public menu
The public menu PDF (see Public menu PDFs) uses the same data: name, brewery, ABV, style, short description. Customers reading the PDF on their phone see exactly what's on tap with full notes.
DeepL translation
Untappd descriptions are typically in English. brasio uses DeepL to translate them into Spanish (and back, for venues with Spanish-language original notes). The translation happens at sync time and is cached — re-running sync doesn't re-translate beers whose descriptions haven't changed.
See DeepL translations for menu items.
Sync frequency
Manual: run Sync con Untappd when you swap a tap or add a bottle. No automatic schedule today — you decide when to refresh.
Not working?
- Sync con Untappd button missing: the integration isn't enabled for your tenant. Contact us — we'll provision the credentials.
- A beer is in UTFB but didn't sync: check it's on a menu (Beer on Tap, Bottled Beer, Tasting, or your custom Odoo Catalog sync menu). Items only in the master library don't sync.
- The description didn't translate: DeepL has a free-tier quota. If you've hit it for the month, descriptions stay in the source language. Talk to us to upgrade or wait for the monthly reset.
- Wrong style or ABV: the source of truth is UTFB. Update there, re-sync. brasio overrides are possible but discouraged — they make the catalog drift from the public menu.
- A product I have in brasio didn't match: the name in brasio doesn't match the UTFB beer name. Rename the brasio product to match UTFB exactly, then re-sync.
