How to Flavor Naturally Brewed Beverages


Cider, Framboise, Malt Beverages, Wine Coolers and Natural Seltzer are easily flavored using Brewch.  The secret to success is choosing the right flavors to work with your existing profile of "top notes" that come from yeast fermentation.  The less yeast flavor you have, the more room there is to add new Brewch "top notes" like fruit and berry to your beverage.

Yeast fermentation changes the underlying fruit and malt profile of your beverage and is the reason why it makes so much difference which species of yeast and fermentation conditions you use in your beverage. These underlying flavors can be strong, but a little bit of testing and development will yield great results and a more robust and complete flavor profile.

Step One

Define your pre-flavor beverage base 

This is a boring and repeatable recipe you know how to brew and scale with available ingredients. It could be as simple as a single variety apple cider, generic hefeweizen or sweetened seltzer base that you produce or procure.   

Will you need TTB paperwork? 

If you are producing an alcoholic beverage that is taxed by the TTB, you will need to contact us for specific requirements. Each flavor that is eligible for use has a different usage rate that is permitted by TTB.

Step Two

Test drops of brewch flavorings in your Beverage base

Fill a 100ml-200ml  test vessel with your beverage base and drip 3-5 drops of Brewch in using our 15ml sample size bottles. Use different flavors in a complex blend, or just pick a single one you like. 

Use our flavor drops calculator to finalize your recipe and get market feed back on a larger test batch.
