New Triangle Test

This is a blind triangle taste test. You have been given three cups of beer. Your task is to distinguish which one of the cups contains a beer that is perceptibly different than the other two. This test is about differences in flavor, aroma and mouthfeel, not appearance – hence why the beers have intentionally been given to you in identical looking, opaque cups.

Please answer the following questions about the beers in your cups:

Who are you?


Which one describes you best?

Select any of the following additional certifications you have:

Which cup contains the beer that is the odd beer out of the three? Please make your best guess, even if you don't perceive any difference between the three.

You chose Cup LETTER as the unique beer. Which beer do you prefer?
