It has unexpectedly been found that Pichia spp. strains have advantageous properties useful in the beer fermentation process. In particular, Pichia spp. yeast strains can be combined with normal beer yeast strains and different hop varieties in a fermentation process to produce synergistic effectsnamely, the increased production of esters in the fermentation product. More specifically, the yeast can be used to produce increased levels of isoamyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, ethyl propionate, ethyl valerate, ethyl butyrate, ethyl decanoate and ethyl octanoate in beer. In addition, the Pichia spp. strain interacts differently with different hop varieties, so the flavor profile of beer can be tuned by using different combinations of Pichia spp. strains and hops. The present invention relates to a method of brewing beer using a Pichia spp. yeast strain and at least one hop variety, a beer obtainable by such a method and use of a Pichia spp. yeast strain according to the present invention.

The present invention relates to a method for producing a sport beverage, comprising the steps of providing malt and/or unmalted grains, providing mashing liquor produced from spent grains, processing the malt and the mashing liquor to obtain a wort, fermenting the wort by using a yeast and optionally, blending with flavour(s) and/or vitamin(s); and/or adding of sugar(s). The present invention further relates to a sport beverage obtained by said method, wherein said sport beverage is non-alcoholic or has an alcohol content of less than about 1.2 vol-%, preferably less than about 0.5 vol-%. The present invention also relates to the use of the sport beverage before and/or after physical activities.

Described herein are materials and methods for the conversion of a non-volatile form of 3-sulfanyl-1-hexanol (3SH) to free 3SH during a brewing process.

Provided herein is a method of improving the taste profile of a glucosylated terpene glycoside (GTG).

The present invention relates to methods of producing a food or malt-base beverage suitable for consumption by a subject with Coeliac's disease. In particular, the present invention relates to methods of producing a food or malt-based beverage with low levels of hordeins. Also provided are barley plants which produce grain that can be used in the methods of the invention.

The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a deuterated ethanol from ethanol, D.sub.2O, a ruthenium catalyst, and a co-solvent.

The present disclosure discloses a method for screening malt for brewing red beer, and belongs to the field of beer brewing. The method takes different kinds of malt samples as examples, and after whole malt mashing and dilution, mashed wort is diluted with water to a chroma value of 50-80 EBC; and when the red intensity of the mashed wort having a chromatic value of 50-80 EBC is 0.209-0.289, the measured malt can be fermented and brewed into red beer. The method can screen malt for red beer brewing simply and quickly, is of important practical significance for guiding the production of red beer, and lays an important foundation for further brewing red beer with different malt.
