# Fizz Squad

> Seltzer reviews for the people. Honest, hand-tasted reviews of every brand
> and flavor of sparkling water, scored on a consistent 0-10 scale with a
> 5-axis bubble profile. Independently run by a married couple. Based in the US.

Fizz Squad publishes seltzer and sparkling-water reviews using a standardized framework so every brand can be compared apples-to-apples.

Every review includes:
- A **Squad Score** (0–10, decimal precision) — overall verdict
- A **bubble profile** rated 0–10 on five axes: Juice vs. Artificial, Bubble Size, Bubble Intensity, Minerality, Flavor Intensity
- A short written tasting note
- Container availability (can, glass bottle, plastic bottle)
- Country of origin (USA or international)

The Squad Score and bubble profile are determined by two tasters (a married couple) tasting the seltzer cold from a fridge, fresh from a freshly-opened container, with a palate cleanse between samples. Fizz Squad does not accept free product from brands and has no paid placements.
