Local beer wholesaler, Pearlstine Distributors, is embracing mobile technology to reward you for drinking brands they carry, namely New Belgium.

Untappd.com describes the application as, "A new way to socially share the brew you're currently enjoying, as well as where you're enjoying it, with your friends! It's a great way to spread your favorite brews and hang outs with your friends."

Here's how to participate with this weekend's promotion:

1. Like Pearlstine Distributors on Facebook and comment "I drink socially and responsibly."
2. Add Pearlstine_Distributors on the Untappd network.
3. Check-in with at least three New Belgium beers this weekend. You can @PearlstineDist or rate the style of beer you're drinking. The more you check-in the better the prize package. There are 9 opportunities to sample New Belgium's Lips of Faith between the Closed for Business beer dinner & Brewvival. Even if you don't plan on attending these events, New Belgium is all over town, here is what we serve in the Lowcountry.
4. Pearlstine Distributors will let you know when you can pick up your prizes on Monday!
