Est. tonight · a diary for everything you drink
One tap a night, ten seconds, no forms. A year later you're holding a mosaic of your own taste — where you kept going back, and where you've never been.
Free · no card · 30 seconds · private from the first entry
364 nights · brighter is more · nothing typed twice
Every square is one entry you made in ten seconds. Log a night and it brightens; miss one and the run survives, because a single slip should never wipe a month. Have water instead and the square still counts — a dry day keeps your streak here, which is the whole difference between this and a tracker.
The home is a calendar, not a feed. Tonight is already sitting there waiting for you.
A name, a mark for how it felt, and a note or photo if the night earned one. Everything after the name is optional.
The square brightens and the sheet closes. That's the ritual — no units, no macros, no interrogation.

Write it however you write it. Type guiness at one in the morning and the diary knows you meant Guinness, and that Guinness is a dry stout, and that a dry stout is a place on your map. Nobody has to keep a tidy database — that's the app's job.
Your entries draw a road, and the only way to travel it is to try something you've never had. Order a wine you can't pronounce and a region opens. Find a drink our dictionary has never heard of — a village arrack, your uncle's brew — and you can chart it yourself: name it, place it, and it's on the map for everyone after you.
There's a lifetime score on that map and it's made of exactly two things: how wide you've wandered, and how steadily you've kept the diary. No axis for volume. No table of who drank most. Not now, not later.
Send a single entry to a friend, a private circle, or the table you're sitting at. Cheers and comments come back. There is no infinite feed, because the diary is the point and sharing is the afterthought.
Add the tab, add who was there, and the split falls out — who paid, who owes, cleared before anyone has put their card away.
Open a party or a plan, pull in the people actually there, and the evening lands in everyone's diary at the same time instead of being retyped five ways.
At a partner bar a loyalty card fills itself — earned in the room, punched by staff, never by you. What the bar sees is the nights it served you. Your diary never crosses the counter.
Every count in the app counts variety — a drink you've never had, a place you've never been, a night you had water instead. There is no total-drinks leaderboard and there never will be, because that is a scoreboard you win by pouring one more.
Every entry starts private. Sharing is a separate tap, after the fact, one entry at a time. Take everything you've ever written out in a single file, or delete the account outright — one screen, no email to support, no retention offer.
And it's a diary for whatever you drink: the espresso at seven, the beer at nine, the kombucha you keep meaning to finish. If you don't drink alcohol at all, every part of this works exactly the same.
brewdiary lives on the web, so there is no install queue and no update to sit through. The store builds are being made — when they land, your diary is already inside them.
Any browser, any device, and the diary follows you between them.
Meanwhile: open brewdiary in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. It opens full-screen, like an app, and works on a bad train connection.
Meanwhile: open brewdiary in Chrome, tap the menu, then Add to Home screen.
An email and a password. That's the whole sign-up, and the diary is open on the other side of it.
