Frequently Asked Questions

BeerSpy is a simple tool for sharing the cost of a pint across Australia. Below are answers to questions we are often asked by new users. If your question is not addressed here feel free to reach out through the project repository.

How accurate are the beer prices?

Prices are crowd-sourced and include a timestamp. Recent entries tend to be reliable, but always double check with the venue before ordering. If you notice an outdated price, please submit an update so others can benefit.

Does BeerSpy include happy hours?

Absolutely. When adding a price you can mark it as a happy hour special and include the start and end time. The map highlights venues where a happy hour is currently running, making it easy to spot limited-time deals.

Which areas of Australia are covered?

We list pubs and bars in every capital city and many regional towns. Coverage improves as more people contribute. Use the links on the home page to explore popular areas or submit your own local knowledge.

How can I submit or update a price?

Click the button labelled “Enter Pub Details” on the map. Fill in the venue name, price, size and any notes. Your submission will appear immediately and helps the community stay informed.
