added Michael Thorpe's TTB Formula Spreadsheet
For commercial brewers in the US, any ingredient not on the [https://www.fda.gov/food/ingredientspackaginglabeling/gras/ucm083022.htm GRAS] or [https://www.ttb.gov/beer/exempt-ingre.shtml TTB exempt] lists needs to be approved by the TTB regardless of where the beer is sold. When seeking approval, it is helpful to show previous use and scientific articles supporting the safety of consumption of the ingredient being used. Provide this information for the FDA GRAS department and then have them work with the TTB for approval.

Michael Thorpe and Milk The Funk maintain a list of ingredients that have been approved by the TTB for a specific brewery to use, but are not on the exempt lists. Help us out by adding your TTB approved ingredient to the list, or use this list to help you get approval for an ingredient that your brewery uses.
