BarrelBook Social Is Starting to Roll Out We’ve begun rolling out the first version of BarrelBook Social. This new release introduces Friends and Shared Shelves, making it possible to explore other collectors’ bottles and share a curated shelf from your own collection. The rollout is happening in phases, starting with a smaller group of users as we continue refining the experience. If you don’t see the Social tab yet, it will appear as the feature expands to more accounts. Friends Search for other BarrelBook users and connect with them. Once connected, you can browse their shared bottles and see what they’re drinking. Shared Shelf Choose bottles from your collection and publish them to your Shared Shelf. It’s an easy way to showcase favorites, rare finds, or recent pours. Discover Other Collections Explore what other collectors are sharing and open full bottle details to learn more about each bottle. BarrelBook started as the fastest way to capture every detail of a bottle with a photo. Now it’s evolving into a place where collectors can discover bottles through other enthusiasts.
