BREW PUNK API

This is a CFC wrapper to interact with the Brew Punk API ( https://punkapi.com ).

No authentication is needed but the API is rate-limited to 3600 requests per hour.

Available methods are:

• getBeers()
• getBeer()
• getRandomBeer()

Additional methods:

Each request updates the number of requests remaining within the rate-limit period. You can fetch this value using the getRateLimitRemaining() method.

JSON string or deserialized array

All methods in the wrapper allow you to get the response as a deserialized array for server-side processing. To enable this simply set the parseResponse parameter to true.
