Brewers continue to push the boundaries with innovative new products that have crossed over into the flavoring space. To meet the growing demand for infused alcoholic beverages, we have selected our most popular terpene blends and modified them to work in alcoholic beverages.
TasteBudds can also can be added to single servings where a consumer can, for instance, add a single drop to a beer or cocktail. Bars are also using TasteBudds behind the counter as an up-sell Hops/Canna "flavor enhancer".
TasteBudds blends allow you to confidently develop and distribute creatively infused beverages that are sure to be a hit! They are concentrated enough to infuse by the glass, firkin or barrel.
Recommended usage rate of 30ml-60ml per barrel (BBL)

TasteBudds flavors for Beer & Spirits are specifically designed to work directly with beer, spirits, and cocktails and can be used to flavor by the glass, bottle, firkin, or barrel. They are water soluble were designed to bring creative flavor profiles to your beverages.
Each flavor has an average add back range that can vary quite a bit based on the flavor you are using, preference, and type of alcohol that it’s going into. Our general rule of thumb is to start low and work your way up. You can always add more! Start your dosing at 2 µL per 4 oz drink. Some flavors have a big nose to them and faint flavors, while others have very little nose and some big flavors!
The most common usage rate we've heard of is 15ml of TasteBudds per BBL. Some use as little as 5ml per BBL; some as high as 60ml (2oz) per BBL. So, the usage range is quite wide and very much depends on the taste of the brewer or distiller.
Drink Volume | Dosing |
4 oz (Taster) | 2 µL |
16 oz (Pint) | 8 µL |
32 oz (Growler) | 16 µL |
1/6 BBL (Sixtel) | 250-600 µL |
1/2 BBL (Keg) | 1-8 mL |
1 BBL (Barrel) | 15-40 mL |
