The Iowa Wine and Beer Promotion Board just announced their new app. An enhanced version of the popular print directory, it contains all the wineries and breweries along with their contact information and amenities, plus additional photos and GPS navigation. With the new app, you can see where you are in Iowa, see where the nearest wineries and breweries are to you and get directions. If you lose your internet signal, have no fear, the app has static maps that will show you where the business is located. 
The app is available for free from the Apple App Store. The traditional Iowa Wine and Beer Directory is available at any Iowa Welcome Center, at any of the included wineries or breweries or for order online at http://www.iowawineandbeer.com/.

Great idea! I would love to have this app on my smartphone, but unfortunately I have a Palm Pre rather than an iPhone. I think that having static maps on the app is BRILLIANT, because I hate it when I lose my signal and my map directions error out.
I am looking forward to getting out and tasting some good Iowa wines this summer. I would like your app for my Droid powered smart phone. It seems pretty cool.
Patrick - We've had several requests for the app to be available on Droid devices. We're checking into the possibilty of releasing a Droid app.
totally agree with you, great idea.
