The Siebel Institute of Technology & Brewers Association are proud to present professional-level brewing education at the 2009 Great American Beer Festival in Denver. The 4-hour Siebel Institute Sensory Analysis Seminar is designed to train brewers and beer enthusiasts in the process of sensory evaluation of beer. During this informative & practical presentation, students will learn to employ techniques used in professional breweries worldwide to assess the quality of their ales and lagers. The seminar will follow the brewing process from brewhouse to packaged product focusing on positive and negative flavor compounds produced during the various stages of the brewing process, including fermentation, maturation, packaging and storage. The origin and control of the various flavors will be discussed and students will have the opportunity to smell & taste beers that have been spiked with a variety of food-grade flavor compounds.
