The discussions suggest the research could impact brewing industries by refining flavor consistency and authenticity, though it’s still viewed as a foundational step.

Abstract in brief

  • The study analyzed the changes in volatile organic metabolites (VOMs) during five different brewing steps of lager beer, identifying 60 different VOMs using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.
  • Different types of compounds dominate at various stages: aldehydes and furans are prevalent in wort, while aliphatic esters and alcohols are more common in the later stages, affecting the beer's flavor profile.
  • Key VOMs like ethyl alcohol and isoamyl acetate influence the beer's aroma, contributing to strong, pungent smells and fruity banana notes, and this volatile fingerprinting helps understand how each brewing step impacts the final flavor and authenticity.]
