What is Brewery Lookup?
The Brewery Lookup skill is a specialized command-line interface designed to bridge the gap between AI agents and craft beer enthusiasts. By leveraging the Open Brewery DB API, this tool enables agents to perform real-time searches for breweries based on specific criteria like name, location, or production type. It is one of the many Openclaw Skills that prioritize speed and simplicity, requiring no authentication or API keys to function.
This skill is particularly effective for developers building assistant agents that need to provide local recommendations or travel advice. Whether you are looking for a microbrewery in Portland or a regional brewpub in California, this utility provides formatted, actionable data instantly.
Brewery Lookup Use Cases
- Finding local breweries in specific cities or states during trip planning.
- Identifying specific types of establishments like brewpubs, nano breweries, or contract brewers.
- Providing random brewery recommendations for discovery-focused AI interactions.
- Verifying brewery names and locations for data enrichment tasks.
- Integrating real-time beverage industry data into automated workflows.
How Brewery Lookup Works
- The AI agent receives a user prompt related to finding beer or breweries.
- The agent executes the specific subcommand (search, city, state, type, or random) via the CLI.
- The skill uses curl to fetch data from the Open Brewery DB API v1.
- jq processes the JSON response to filter and format the results.
- The tool returns a human-readable summary including the brewery name, location, type, and website URL.
Brewery Lookup Setup
Ensure you have bash, curl, and jq installed on your system. To integrate this into your environment, follow these steps:
# Navigate to your skills directory
cd path/to/your/skills
# Clone or download the breweries script
# Ensure the script is executable
chmod +x breweries
No API keys or environment variables are required for this Openclaw Skills component.
Brewery Lookup Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill organizes data fetched from the API into a clear, concise format. The following attributes are typically captured and displayed:
| Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The official trade name of the brewery |
| Location | City and State/Province |
| Type | The classification (e.g., micro, brewpub, large) |
| Website | Direct URL to the brewery's homepage |
Queries return up to 10 results per request to ensure the AI agent remains focused and efficient.
Brewery Lookup Advanced Features
- Support for diverse brewery types including planning, contract, and proprietor stages.
- Flexible state search accepting both full names and abbreviations.
- Randomizer functionality with configurable result counts for discovery agents.
- Low-latency response times with no rate-limiting restrictions for typical usage.
- Seamless integration as a wrapper within broader Openclaw Skills implementations.
