Identifying Off Flavours In Beers
Technically any flavour that’s not meant to be in the beer by design is an off flavour, however it’s usually referring to unpleasant flavours that occur as a by-product of issues with brewing or packaging. Even these however can sometimes be a part of a beers character – if someone drinks a beer regularly and suddenly a flavour gets removed, they might be unhappy even if it’s typically seen as a negative!
