An alcohol free or low alcohol fermented malt based beverage is disclosed. The malt based beverage has an alcohol content of not more than 1.0 vol. % preferably not more than 0.7 vol. % having an aroma profile close to the one of alcoholic lager beers. The beverage has 7.00-30.00 ppm ethyl acetate and 0.01-0.20 ppm ethyl butyrate. The beverage preferably has the esters 0.05-2.00 ppm isoamyl acetate; 0.01-0.10 ppm ethyl butyrate; and 0.01-0.05 ppm ethyl hexanoate. The beverage preferably has the higher alcohol 5.00-30.00 ppm (iso-)amyl alcohol. The (iso)amyl alcohol is defined as the sum of 3-methyl butanol and 2-methyl butanol.

According to the invention, an aliquot of must is sent from a wine making vat into an air-lift-type fermenting-desugaring unit, wherein homogenization of the aliquot and aeration of the yeasts are carried out with controlled heating in order to achieve aerobic fermentation until all the sugar in the aliquot has been consumed completely.

The present invention provides processes for producing food products, particularly juice beverages, with reduced sugar content enriched with dietary fibers and the food products produced. The processed food products are low in calories while preserving the palatable test of the starting material, and contain beneficial amount of dietary fibers. The processed food product further contains sorbitol and gluconic acid.

A composition with a health preserving effect, comprising 2.5-6.5 parts of Rhizoma Polygonati and 27.5-84.5 parts of a Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture. The Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture is a mixture of a baijiu soaking solution obtained by soaking Rhizoma Polygonati in baijiu and dregs of a decoction. Also provided are health preserving wine prepared from the composition and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises subjecting the Rhizoma Polygonati and the Rhizoma Polygonati-soaked solution mixture to mixed culture fermentation with proso millet. The health preserving wine is prepared by combining fermentation and soaking processes.
