To really know beer, you need to know be able to critically evaluate its characteristics using the common language of beer sensory analysts. Siebel Institute is pleased to offer products designed to assist brewers and those involved in beer service in understanding the flavor & aroma characteristic attributable to the full range of beer styles.

The Siebel Institute Sensory Training Kits contains 24 vials of pre-measured “standards” representing some of the most important flavors and aromatics found in beer. The standards are shipped in ready-to-use liquid form, making them as easy to use as possible. Just open the small vial of the sensory standard into a pitcher or measuring cup, add 1 liter of beer selected for light, neutral characteristics, and you are ready to sample! Each kit is designed to serve up to 20 tasters, allowing them to build their skills towards understanding beer flavor at a truly professional level. While breweries with established tasting panel structures will find this kit valuable, it can also be used for “taster calibration” by others with an interest in beer including:

• Breweries training new & existing staff to spot beer defects more effectively
• Brewers guilds looking to add value to their regularly-scheduled meetings
• Homebrew groups and beer judges looking to sharpen their judging and flavor recognition skills
• Distributors, wholesalers and agents who need to be able to “talk the talk” about beer attributes with beer specialty retailers
