Go Home: Press the Home button.
Open Settings → Applications → Manage Installed Applications.
Scroll to BeerMenus → press ☰ Menu on the remote.
Choose Force Stop → OK.
Back out, reopen BeerMenus from Your Apps & Games.

B. Soft-Reboot the Fire TV Stick

Method 1 – Remote Shortcut

Hold SELECT (center) + PLAY/PAUSE together for 5 seconds.
The screen turns black; after ~45 sec you’ll see the Fire TV splash and it will reload BeerMenus.

Method 2 – Via Settings

Settings → My Fire TV (or Device & Software).
Select Restart → OK to confirm.

C. Hard-Power-Cycle

Gently unplug the micro-USB power cable or the wall adapter.
Wait 10 seconds.

Tip: If you find yourself rebooting often, clear BeerMenus’ cache once a week and keep the Fire Stick’s storage above 500 MB free (Settings → My Fire TV → About → Storage).
