Joining Free Beer Buddy is quick, easy, and painless. Okay, even dentists say stuff like that about root canals. They're lying we're not, joining us really is all that, plus it helps save baby harp seals. Or something. Here's how it is done:

Step 1: Fill out the easy registration form. There are only a few fields to fill out. Some of the fields on this form can be seen by other members who visit your profile online. Those are clearly marked. They are things like your Name and Zip Code. Your date of birth isn't shown to anyone, ever. When your information is entered, click the Send Registration button.

A screen will now appear telling you that you have successfully registered, and asking you to log in. There will also be a link to this message, so skip clicking that since you are already reading this. Unless you want to read it again, in which case go ahead.

Step 2: Log in using the Username and Password you selected.

Step 3: Pick a level of membership. You have several options when it comes to joining our community. You might want to review them before you sign up. You can always join for free, and upgrade later. Not a problem. Just click on the 'Your Subscription' entry on the Member Menu.

If you pick a paid membership level (Thank you! We love you! Bless you!)

Step 4: Where you go next is up to you. We have some suggestions on getting started here.
