Off Flavors Seminar

Ever taste a beer and know something’s off — but can’t quite name it? This hands-on class will train your palate to recognize the most common off-flavors in beer and understand what causes them. We’ll start with a light lager brewed in-house at Perfect Brewing Supply, then dose individual samples with a calibrated off-flavors kit so you can taste each flaw in isolation — think diacetyl, DMS, acetaldehyde, oxidation, and more. For each one, we’ll break down what causes it, how to spot it in your own homebrew, and how to fix it.

Whether you’re a homebrewer looking to troubleshoot your process or just want to sharpen your tasting skills, this class will change the way you taste beer.
