Next Glass has developed the world's first Genome Cellar, an extensive database that contains the chemical makeup - or "DNA" - of tens of thousands of wines and beers. By looking at each bottle on a molecular level, Next Glass defines a unique taste profile for every bottle by analyzing thousands of chemical elements.

"Defining taste is nearly impossible since it's a deeply personal experience, especially when it comes to wine and beer. What is fruity and sweet to me may be dry and tart to someone else," said Kurt Taylor, founder and CEO of Next Glass. "People are generally overwhelmed by all of the different wines and beers to choose from. We're here to make the process as easy as possible by removing the ambiguous opinions. With Next Glass, you don't have to worry about what you pick because you know you're going to love it."

Once users download the Next Glass app, they are prompted to rate a few wines and beers that they have already tasted. Next Glass then compares their chemical taste preferences to the entire Genome Cellar to predict the next glass of wine or beer that each person will enjoy. Users just scan or enter the name of a wine or beer through the app and then receive a personal rating without ever having to take a single sip.

The more ratings individual users input, the more diverse their personal wine and beer discoveries will become.

Next Glass also allows users to share their taste profiles with others, making it easy to identify which wine or beer to drink together, or gift to friends and family. "Think of what you could do with Next Glass at your next dinner outing," Taylor continued. "If your friends are on Next Glass, choosing a wine or beer that everyone enjoys is simple.

Next Glass is free and available to download now on both iOS and Android devices.

About Next Glass
Founded by CEO Kurt Taylor in 2012, Next Glass has emerged as the only discovery app to utilize objective, scientific data to predict how much you'll enjoy any beer or wine. With Next Glass, you get personalized ratings on beer and wine that are scientifically tailored to your tastes. Since taste begins at the molecular level, Next Glass tested tens of thousands of bottles in its laboratory to analyze and store the "DNA" of each in its Genome Cellar, with hundreds of beers and wines added weekly. Rate drinks you've already tried to build a personal Taste Profile. Then, get scores on new beers and wines based on their "DNA" and your preferences.
