Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing beer and beer manufactured thereby. The method for manufacturing beer according to the present invention comprises: a saccharification step of mixing raw materials, including crushed malt, with water to convert starch into sugar; a filtration step of separating the saccharified raw materials into solid and liquid; a boiling step of boiling the wort, which is the liquid separated in the filtration step; a cooling step of cooling the boiled wort; a fermentation step of adding yeast to the cooled wort and fermenting it; and an aging step of aging the fermented wort; wherein the yeast is characterized by being yeast in which the IRC7 gene is activated.

Description

Method for making beer and beer made thereby The present invention relates to the manufacture of beer, and more specifically, to a method for manufacturing beer capable of imparting a rich fruit flavor to the beer and to the beer produced thereby. Beer has evolved over its long history through various changes in brewing methods and ingredients. With the recent increase in preference for fruit-flavored beers, various attempts are being made to maximize fruit aromas within the existing brewing process. Previously, to produce fruit beer (fruit-flavored beer), methods were used to directly add a small amount of fruit or to enhance the fruit flavor by using expensive hops. However, this method has the problem of high manufacturing costs and inconsistent quality. Another method for making fruit beer involves using liquid flavorings, but this method has the problem that the aroma is not natural. Meanwhile, volatile thiols, which play an important role in fruit beer, can be formed when thiol precursors naturally present in beer ingredients such as hops, malt, and fruit are converted by the action of yeast. However, conventional beer yeast cannot sufficiently activate this conversion process, so there are limitations in maximizing fruit flavors. FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a beer manufacturing method according to the present invention. In order to clarify the features and advantages of the means for solving the problem of the present invention, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to specific embodiments of the present invention illustrated in the attached drawings. However, detailed descriptions of known functions or configurations that may obscure the essence of the invention are omitted in the following description and the attached drawings. Additionally, it should be noted that identical components throughout the drawings are indicated by the same reference numerals whenever possible. Terms and words used in the following description and drawings should not be interpreted as being limited to their ordinary or dictionary meanings, but should be interpreted in a meaning and concept consistent with the technical spirit of the invention, based on the principle that the inventor can appropriately define the concept of terms to best describe his invention. Accordingly, the embodiments described in this specification and the configurations illustrated in the drawings are merely the most preferred embodiments of the invention and do not represent all aspects of the technical spirit of the invention; therefore, it should be understood that various equivalents and modifications capable of replacing them may exist at the time of filing this application. Furthermore, the terms used in this specification are used merely to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the invention. Singular expressions include plural expressions unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Additionally, terms such as “comprising” or “having” described in this specification are intended to indicate the existence of the features, numbers, steps, actions, components, parts, or combinations thereof described in the specification, and should be understood as not precluding the existence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, steps, actions, components, parts, or combinations thereof. Additionally, terms such as "part," "unit," and "module" as described in the specification refer to a unit that processes at least one function or operation, which may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of hardware and software. Furthermore, "one (a or an)," "one," "the," and similar related terms may be used in the context describing the invention (particularly in the context of the following claims) in a sense that includes both singular and plural forms, unless otherwise indicated in the specification or clearly contradicted by the context. In addition to the terms described above, specific terms used in the following description are provided to aid in understanding the present invention, and the use of such specific terms may be modified in other forms without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention. Hereinafter, a method for manufacturing beer according to the present invention and the beer produced thereby will be described.
