The chromatographic response of volatile sulphur components in the headspace of a typical Canadian ale investigated by a GLC technique using the FPD detector was found to vary according to the analytical procedure selected. Time and temperature of sample conditioning as well as mode of column preparation are stressed as the most important variables in the analysis of finished beer under atmospheres containing oxygen. It is recommended that caution be exercised in the identification by co‐chromatography of volatile sulphur compounds in beer.
