Description:
• We are an online social network designed to bring beer enthusiasts, home-brewers, and anyone who loves beer together for the betterment of the rapidly growing craft beer movement.
• We provide online status updates like Facebook, allow groups to be formed and forums created within the groups, a market place for home-brewers and others to sell, buy, or trade their equipment or any other related product(s) like Craigslist but directed at the beer enthusiasts, review beers they’ve tried on a simple review module, allow businesses to purchase directory space, allow users to purchase memberships for use of the site without ads and allow them to participate in sponsored promotions, and allow users to purchase apparel provided by our vendor, Custom Picture Printing. Plans are in the works to provide several games where users can compete with each other, similar to the hundreds of facebook games out there now, except these will be beer related (beer pong for example). Users can purchase additional turns or coins, creating another revenue stream.
• The social function goes above and beyond the typical status updates that Hoppular will provide. In The Market, users can look for other like-minded individuals to plan for get-togethers like a pub crawl or brewery hunting. Like the thousands of dating sites, Hoppular will provide space in the Market for those looking for dates or even platonic meetings. Homebrew clubs can seek recruitment for home brewers to join.
