When in a foreign country, visitors want to not only see as many sites as possible, but also really take in the culture and experience the lifestyle as well. However, to truly embed yourself in another society can take much research and effort, that is, unless the work has already been done for you.
With Dezzie’s Guide to Pinting in Dublin by Alex Grant, both tourists and citizens will find this comprehensive overview of Ireland’s beer culture, pub scene and general history an advantageous tool as they try to get in on all the fun. Sure, many think the Irish are all drunks, but Dezzie’s Guide debunks that stereotype, outlining bits of history and the reasons why so many take to beer when in an Irish pub. Created as a companion for those who want to soak up the experiences the beautiful city of Dublin has to offer, Dezzie’s Guide hopes to optimize the craic, which is Gaelic for fun, by telling you the best places to go for local banter and beer.
Upon first startup, users will be greeted with an introduction to not only what Dezzie’s Guide has to offer, but also tidbits about Dublin and all the research and effort that went into making this application such an extensive, detailed and witty guide for tourists and natives alike.
Within the application itself, you will find three distinct tabs that break Dezzie’s Guide into Pints, Bars and Tips. Under the Pints tab, users can read about the various types of pints you will find in Dublin: Another Pint, Cheeky Pint, Hair of the Dog Pints, Half-Pint, Matchday Pints, Paddy’s Day Pints, Post-Work Pints, Quick Pint, Quiet Pints, and Random Pints. Each pint category comes with its own description, including where you might drink one, a little bit about its history and various other silly details that make each explanation as unique as the pint itself.
The Bars tab provides users with a list of popular pubs in which you may choose to enjoy said pints. A review, the establishment’s address, their phone number and a map that pinpoints their location accompany each name. The reviews are short but comprehensive, giving you a decent peek into the pub’s atmosphere to determine whether it will mesh well with your taste and personality. The Tips tab fills you in on basic knowledge about Dublin that may prove rather helpful. Users will learn about Trinity College, forms of transportation, sports, music, writers and so much more.
Truly utilizing their wit, the developers of Dezzie’s Guide have injected their thorough research and observations with a fun sense of humor that puts users in a good mood way before they ever arrive. They manage to discourage the stereotype while promoting the culture, pointing out that Ireland isn’t solely devoted to the consumption of alcohol, but also a vast, interesting place where the people simply love to have fun. And with such a detailed, personal guide in your pocket, get ready to “drink up” as much of Dublin life as you can possibly consume!
Dezzie’s Guide to Pinting in Dublin [iTunes Link] requires iPhone OS 3.1.2 or later and is compatible with iPhone and iPod Touch. A small expedite fee was paid by the developer to speed up the publication of this review.

Girls & Drinks Rewards You for Knowing Your Drinks
Girls & Drinks Rewards You for Knowing Your Drinks is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Price: $1.99 Score: 6/10 By Steve Beaudry
There’s something to be said for knowing which drinks will get you how drunk in what amount of time. For one thing, you don’t want to be falling out of your chair at Last Call. For another, as this game indicates, you don’t want to lose it in front of a hottie.
Girls & Drinks by Baytex Software turns the art of drinking into a virtual achievement. With the combination of beer goggles and video game dexterity, Girls & Drinks challenges you to “drink” the right amount of alcohol in just the right amount of time so that you don’t pass out, but you aren’t hit with a cold reality either. If you do it right, you’ll see the female bartender in front of you go from frumpy to angelic in just five drinks. Choose from a wide variety of alcohol levels from lagers to whiskey and then carefully tip or flick your iPhone to choose how quickly you drink it. If your drunk-meter on the left reaches the top before five drinks, you pass out and lose.
This game gets high marks for graphics and an interesting use of the accelerometer, and the amount of knowledge required to know which drinks have what alcohol content is an intriguing concept, but there’s really not much more to the game. It’s fun for a couple of plays – maybe three to see each one of the girls – but after that, there’s not much to pull you back in. I have to be honest, though, I’m not the best person to go to when it comes to choosing drinks. I pretty much just guessed which drinks would have the right amount of alcohol. And even despite that, I won more times than I lost.
The game is, however, quite pleasing to look at. And not just because of the hot chicks behind the bar. The whole game has a genuine pub feel with graphics that really pop out of the virtual interface. The drinks look exactly like they should and the way in which the glasses empty – the the liquid draining, the foam floating, the ice falling – looks remarkable. It’s not just a picture of a drink; it’s a real drink.
Get Girls & Drinks if you’re looking for some eye-candy, but if you want some fun, re-playable game action, this probably isn’t the app you’re looking for. There’s definitely a market for this kind of game, but I’m just not in it.
Girls & Drinks requires iPhone OS 3.0 or later and is compatible with both iPhone & iPod Touch.

Who knows, they may develop a love for math! This app is appropriate for children, and there are no references to the drinking or pouring of beer or alcohol.
- Oh, and make sure you don’t knock over one of the bottles!

Beer Pong (Free)
REVIEW – “Always a part favorite!”
I’m allergic to beer so I must admit my experience with beer pong is merely that of a spectator, but man is it funny. People get so into it and before they know it they’re having quite a difficult time keeping up with the game. The more cups the bigger the Beer Pong is a fun sober way to play a drinking game on the go. Who knows it could even give you some tips on strategy and the like .
Beer Pong is an app the simplest of simple interfaces. Designed much like a series of magazine cutouts, Beer Pong has that house party basement feeling. Follow the “How To” link for the easy to understand rules of the game and how to play.
Shifting from spectator to player, although I am sober, Beer Pong is a fun way to pass the time. The game even has a drunk meter that shows your level of sobriety as the game goes on. The music is similar to that of a house party and there are key phrases heard throughout the game that you would definitely here during a game of Beer Pong. “Feeling tipsy!” “Come on. I’m thirsty.”
It’s all quite priceless, actually.
There are only six cups on each side, so soberly, the game doesn’t really last for a long time. However, there was one hangup I had with the game. I really wish there had been a directional arrow and a meter that measured force. There just really was no way to gauge your throw. The ball is far too big and I think it’d help to give a more realistic feel to the game.
Overall, Beer Pong is definitely an app worth downloading. With many other versions of Beer Pong in the app store, I’d say this free version is definitely up there with its competitors. Beer Pong is a game for me and women alike. Just give it a go. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

DEVELOPER’S NOTES
Beer Pong (Beirut) is a classic drinking game in which players throw a Ping-Pong ball across a table trying to sink it into the opponent’s cup.
The game consists of two players (heads up) trying to finish off all of their opponent’s cups. All the while each player must drink the entirety of each cup that is sunk. So things can get interesting.
The game is won by eliminating all the other opponents’ cups before all your cups are eliminated!

In this version you play Corey the current Beer Pong champ (Basement level) in a classic no rack 6-cup game of Beer Pong.
