The Brewers Score, a foundational concept in brewing science, is a numerical system used to quantify the color of beer. Based on a spectrophotometric measurement of light absorbance, it provides a standardized way to describe the beer's hue, ranging from pale straw to dark black. While not a direct indicator of flavor, the Brewers Score offers brewers and consumers valuable insight into the beer's malt profile and potential brewing processes, helping to predict and understand the characteristics of the final product.
