Tally's Beer UniverseThe Brewery Archive

Provenance

Tally Records

One permanent page per beer, checked against a written standard. The archive tells us what exists, the graph tells us how it connects, the evidence tells us what we can prove, and the record tells the public the result, question marks included.

Records

  • AB-000001 24-2 Stock Ale Blindman Brewing
    TPS-CA-AB-001 · ✓ TALLY VERIFIED · 7/7 · chain 6/7

A record is opened by the archive, never bought. Its number is an accession number and is never reused.

Standards

What has to be true before a mark shows. A claim must be VERIFIED — a canonical record, identified correctly, with evidence — for every item a standard requires. What a standard leaves out is stated too, because an omission should be a decision.

  • TPS-CORE Core PILOT

    Every Tally Record needs the brewery and the beer identified with evidence. Nothing else is assumed.

  • TPS-CA-AB-001 Alberta Grain PILOT
