How come I didn't level up my New Brew Thursday or I Believe in IPA badge?

Introduction

You tried 3 new beers in the last 3 Thursdays or 3 IPAs, but you didn't level up? What's going on? HELP!

Solution

First all level badges (I Believe in IPA, New Brew Thursday) max out at level 10.

Second - you can only level up once every 30 days. How do you know if you eligible?

Go to your badge page for you last badge for New Brew Thursday or I Believe in IPA and check the date. If you are within 30 days, you are not eligible for the next level. Don't worry - all your check ins will still count, however you won't be be able to level up in within 30 days of you getting your previous badge.Once you break 30 days, the badge will be eligible - but you'll need to have a new brew to unlock it.
