  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Abstract

The brewing process is essentially complete when the beer is packaged. But is it really? In this chapter, we will explore the principles of quality control and assurance. These two principles are used by the brewer to ensure that the brewery operates with the highest standards. When coupled with total quality management or other guidelines, the brewery will reproducibly manufacture product that has the best chance of being sold to consumers.
