FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI add new breweries to the database?

    No. This MCP only reads data from the Open Brewery DB; it cannot write or modify any records.

  • 02

    Can I use this to find brewery phone numbers?

    Yes, the AI can retrieve contact information that is included in the brewery records.

  • 03

    Does the AI create a physical map file?

    No. The AI provides the text-based data and coordinates, but you must use your own tools to generate a visual map.

  • 04

    Can the AI filter by brewery name?

    No. The current tools only allow filtering by state or brewery type.

  • 05

    Will the AI remember my previous searches?

    The AI's memory depends on your specific AI client, not the MCP itself.
