You can read more about who we are and our company history. There are pages in the sidebar under the read further heading that gives you additional information as to who we are, how to navigate the site and a calendar of upcoming events! Calendar and Events During our recent move to a brand new facility BREWING DISTILLING ANALYTICAL SERVICES became the focus of an article just published in BizLex. BREWING and DISTILLING ANALYTICAL SERVICES was founded in 2003 by Dr. Gary Spedding (a former Director of Laboratories at the Siebel Institute of Technology). Following a move to Kentucky we added expertise in distilled beverages testing in the heart of Bourbon Country. The company was founded as a dedicated testing facility for the alcoholic beverage industry and the allied industries. That is all we do; we focus on testing fermented products (wine, beer, distilled spirits and industrial ethanol) and the raw materials, ingredients and processing aids used in their manufacture. In addition to our own test capabilities we can also provide you access to top-of-the-line laboratories involved in microbiological testing of beverages, process plant samples and raw materials. Gary Spedding has trained many individuals in Sensory Evaluation Skills and we have on-hand many qualified panel members for tasting and evaluating your beverages. In addition to sensory testing we provide, and are becoming well recognized, for a full range of chemical and physical testing of your products. Brewing and Distilling was one of the first (and perhaps the first?) US commercial testing laboratory to acquire a Basic alcohol import Permit. Having this permit helps our clients from outside the USA speed up their sample delivery. This has also made the choice of carrier much easier for many of our existing clients.
