The International Taste & Quality Institute is a globally prestigious food and beverage quality evaluation organization located in Brussels, Belgium. Since 2005, a panel of over 200 taste experts, including chefs and sommeliers from around the world, has annually evaluated thousands of products from over 100 countries. The expert panel conducts a rigorous blind tasting, comprehensively assessing five criteria: first impression, appearance, aroma, taste, and aftertaste. Only products that achieve an average score of over 70% in all categories are awarded the Superior Taste Award.



An OB Beer representative said, “We have been recognized for four consecutive years for the excellent quality of domestic beer by an internationally credible food and beverage evaluation institute,” adding, “With the responsibility of being Korea’s leading beer company, we will continue to present world-class products to consumers through relentless product innovation.”
