Simple universal scheme for the organoleptic assessment of beer qualityNot peer-reviewed article

Jiří CUŘÍN

The described scheme for the organoleptic assessment of beer is a universal scheme suitable both for the use in practice and for the evaluation of results in research or various technological tests. Its advantage, in comparison with the schemes used so far, is namely strict separation of the analytical sensory assessment and evaluation of beer popularity and exclusion of considerably arbitrary scoring, which gives the prerequisites for obtaining objective and clear results. However, quality of the evaluation commission is decisive for achieving really unbiased and clear results. Correctly performed evaluation of beer, however, helps to obtain grounds which in a certain simplification fix steadily the quality of the assessed beer, which is very important especially in research and various technological tests. The necessity of a certain simplification of the description of beer palatefulness is given by the fact that the scheme is determined for                                                                                                       less trained evaluation commissions. However, despite some simplification of the description, very good results can be reached with this scheme.
