Pharmaceutical-grade sensory references for off-flavour detection, brewery QA, and panel training — 58 individual standards plus kits and proficiency programmes.
 

What are Beer Flavour Standards?

FlavorActiV’s GMP-Certified Beer Flavour Standards are pharmaceutical-grade sensory reference materials used by breweries, QA managers, and sensory scientists to identify, measure, and benchmark specific off-flavours, taints, and positive attributes in beer. With 58 individual references — covering defects from diacetyl and DMS to lightstruck and oxidation — plus starter kits and an open proficiency programme, FlavorActiV offers the most comprehensive brewery sensory toolkit available. Every standard is blister-packaged for consistent, reproducible delivery, and the manufacturing facility is inspected by both the UK MHRA and the US FDA.
