Episode 30: Frozen beers are not all that great…
In this episode of The Craft Beercast, we talk about the TTB’s reclassification of some ingredients as “traditional”, effectively loosening the regulation on brewer’s ingredients and processes. This is significantly reducing the time it takes breweries to go through the formula approval process for their beers.

On June 5, 2014, TTB issued a fairly significant ruling, Ingredients and Processes Used in the Production of Beer Not Subject to Formula Requirements. The ruling clearly spells out which Exempt Ingredients and Processes are now deemed “traditional” and, therefore, do not require a TTB formula approval.
Free beer for life? Sounds good to us…

We discuss all that and lots more in addition to our normal Buy-No-Buy and I’d Tap That segments.
