Estimating the term…
The invention relates to a method for making an alcohol-free beer that is free from coagulated matter, with an alcohol content of not more than 0.5% (v/v), comprising the steps of fermentation of a wort, addition of a hydrolyzed protein after fermentation of the wort and pasteurization. The invention further relates to alcohol-free beer that is free from coagulated matter, with an alcohol content of not more than 0.5% (v/v), which contains one or more hydrolyzed proteins. Preferably the beer also contains maltose and maltotriose and the total content of maltose and maltotriose is between 5 and 80 g/l. The beer has a pleasant taste and can be drunk as a typical beer, wherein in addition it contains the necessary ingredients to promote recovery after sports activities.
A method for making an alcohol-free beer that is free from coagulated matter, with an alcohol content of not more than 0.5% (v/v), preferably not more than 0.4% (v/v), comprising the steps of fermentation of a wort, addition of a hydrolyzed protein and pasteurization.
The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, wherein the yeast is a Pichia kluyveri yeast strain and fermentation is ended in such a way that an alcohol content in the brew is obtained of less than 0.5% (v/v), preferably less than 0.4% (v/v).
The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, wherein one or more flavorings are added to the brew.
The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, wherein the wort is made by a process that comprises the following steps
The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, wherein the degree of hydrolysis (DH) of the hydrolyzed protein is at least 5%, preferably at least 7% and most preferably between 8% and 30%.
An alcohol-free beer that is free from coagulated matter, with an alcohol content of not more than 0.5% (v/v), preferably not more than 0.4% (v/v), which contains one or more hydrolyzed proteins.
An alcohol-free beer that is free from coagulated matter, wherein the one or more hydrolyzed proteins are present in a total amount of between 0.5% (w/v) and 10% (w/v).
