Abstract
Beer is the third most consumed beverage in the world, trailing only water and tea but ranking first among alcoholic beverages. In recent years, producers and researchers have shown a growing interest in brewing diversification and innovation, due to of the widespread consumption of beer. In order to create beers and beer-like products with unique and consumer-pleasing characteristics, the use of unconventional raw materials has become a subject of intensive research. The purpose of this paper is to identify, evaluate and summarize the findings of all relevant unconventional raw materials used in relevant scientific studies, as well as the effect on the metabolomics of beer and beer-like beverages.For the enhancement of beer characteristics, the production process may involve the use of an extremely diverse variety of unconventional raw materials that are not included on thelist of usual ingredients for the beer industry. However, the general trend is to use locally available ingredients as well as functional ingredients. Twoof the most studied functional characteristics involve phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity, which is why the fruit is by far the most commonly used adjunct category, as fruits are particularly important sources of polyphenols and antioxidants. Other uncommon adjuncts used in brewing includeplants, starch sources, spices or even propolis. Moreover, unconventional raw materials are used to enhance the sensory profile by create new characteristics such as new tastes and flavors, accentuation of the cooling sensation or even increasing acceptability among potential consumers, who do not appreciate traditional beers due to their specific characteristics.

Abstract
In the recent years, beer brewers are experimenting with using various substrates, other than traditional barley malt, water, hops, and yeast for beer production, because new adjuncts to the beer brewing can add new sensory and functional properties to this beverage. Novel potatoes with purple or red-colour flesh are a good and cheap starch source and are rich in bioactive components, which could increase the nutritive value of the produced beer. The aim of the study was to determine whether some part of barley malt can be replaced by the potatoes of purple-colour flesh and assessment of properties of such beer. Beer samples showed increased antioxidant activity, higher concentration of anthocyanins and polyphenol compounds, as well as modified composition of volatiles and lower ethanol content. Beer produced with the addition of 30% of purple potatoes showed acceptable organoleptic qualities in the sensory analysis.

Abstract
Beer is one of the oldest and most common beverages worldwide. The phenolic contents and antioxidant properties of beer are crucial factors in evaluating its nutritional quality. Special beers brewed with the addition of adjuncts are gaining in consumer preference, in response to demands for healthy food and new gustatory and olfactory stimuli. Many studies recently dealt with functional beers brewed with the addition of adjuncts. This review focuses on bioactive molecules, particularly the composition of phenolic compounds, and the antioxidant activity of beer. The current knowledge concerning the effect of the addition of adjuncts in the form of fruit, vegetables, herbs, and natural foods on the polyphenol content, antioxidant properties, and phenolic profile of beer is reviewed, with an outline of the emerging trends in brewing processes. Future studies need to complete the identification and characterization of the bioactive molecules in beer, as well as studying their absorption and metabolic fate in humans.

Italian Grape Ale Beers Obtained with Malvasia di Candia Aromatica Grape Variety: Evolution of Phenolic Compounds during Fermentation. Foods 2023; 12:foods12061196. [PMID: 36981123 PMCID: PMC10047963 DOI: 10.3390/foods12061196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 03/09/2023] [Accepted: 03/10/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Italian grape ale (IGA) beers have been categorized by the Beer Judge Certification Program as a sub-category of fruit beers in which grape, or grape must, is added during the brewing process to provide additional characteristics to the final beer. In the present work, IGA beers have been produced with must and pomace of the Malvasia di Candia Aromatica (MaCA) grape variety, which were added before fermentation at two different percentages (10% and 20%). The (poly)phenolic profile of IGA beers have been characterized with HPLC-MS/MS and compared to a golden ale control beer (produced in the same conditions without the addition of grape-derived ingredients). A series of sub-samples have been collected to monitor the (poly)phenol profile at time 0 and during the different phases of the fermentation process (1, 3, 5, 7 30, 65 days). Results demonstrated how the addition of pomace allowed to significantly enrich (p < 0.05) final beers in total (poly)phenols detected by MS, while must addition did not influence that amount if compared to the control sample. However, a PCA cluster analysis identified strong similarities among IGA beers and differentiated them to control beer samples. This study underlined how the addition of must and pomace from the MaCA grape variety improved the (poly)phenolic profile of beer from both a qualitative and quantitative point of view.

Abstract
Hops provide the characteristic bitter taste and attractive aroma to beer; in this study, hops were replaced by jasmine tea extract (JTE) during late-hopping. The addition of JTE improved the beer foam stability 1.52-fold, and increased the polyphenol and organic acid contents. Linalool was the most important aroma compound in hopped (HOPB) and jasmine tea beer (JTB), but other flavor components were markedly different, including dimeric catechins, flavone/flavonol glycosides, and bitter acids and derivatives. Sensory evaluation indicated that addition of JTE increased the floral and fresh-scent aromas, reduced bitterness and improved the organoleptic quality of the beer. The antioxidant capacity of JTB was much higher than that of HOPB. The inhibition of amylase activity by JTB was 30.5% higher than that of HOPB. Functional properties to beer were added by substituting jasmine tea extract for hops during late hopping.

Abstract
Each year, 20 million tons of wine by-products are generated, corresponding to 30% of the total quantity of vinified grapes. Wine by-products are a source of healthy bioactive molecules, such as polyphenols and other molecules (pigments, fibers, minerals, etc.). The abundance of bioactive compounds assures a promising future for nutritional foodstuff production. Wine by-products can be used to fortify aromatized waters and infusions, bread, pasta, dairy products, alcohol, sugary beverages, and processed foods. These innovative products are part of the Mediterranean diet and are of great interest to both human and environmental health. Pre-clinical studies show that consumption of food produced with wine by-products or with their extracts attenuates the inflammatory state and increases antioxidant status. As such, wine by-products provide protective effects against the underlying pathophysiological hallmarks of some chronic diseases such as atherosclerosis, diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and cancer. However, the poor bioavailability warrants further investigation on how to optimize the efficacy of wine by-products, and more clinical trials are also needed. The scientific evidence has validated the uses of the dietary nature of wine by-products and has helped to promote their use as a functional food to prevent chronic human diseases.

Abstract
Special beers, known as artisanal, are progressively gaining consumer preference, opening up competition, and acquiring more space in the market. Considering that, exploration for new formulations is justified and plants represent a source of novel compounds with promising antioxidant activity for this beer segment. This paper aims to evaluate the current knowledge on the role of botanical ingredients on the final yield of bioactive compounds in special beer, and how these molecules generally affect the sensory profile. Furthermore, the estimated difficulties of implementation, taking into account the new processes and the relative cost, are discussed. The addition of plants to beer could serve the interests of both the industry and consumers, on one hand, by improving the functional properties and offering a unique flavor, and on the other hand by adding variety to the craft beer landscape. This paper provides guidance and future directions for the development of new products to boost the brewing industry. Brewing processes might affect the valuable compounds, especially the phenolic content. Consequently, future studies need to identify new methods for protecting the level of bioactive compounds in special beer and increasing the bio-accessibility, along with optimization of the sensory and technological properties.

Abstract
Background: Grape pomace is highly attractive for the food industry as it contains numerous bioactive molecules relevant for human health. However, in order to exploit pomace flour as a functional food ingredient for food industry, it is important understand how long-term storage affects the stability of both bioactive molecules and volatile compounds, in addition to color. To this end, we analyzed whole pomace flour from red grape during a six-month storage period in the dark, either at 4 °C or 25 °C. Methods: The specific parameters monitored of grape pomace flour included: antioxidant activity (TEAC assay), total phenol content (Folin-Ciocalteu assay), phenol composition (high performance liquid chromatography), fatty acid composition (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry), volatile compound profiles (headspace-solid phase micro-extraction) and color. Results: Prolonged storage did not significantly affect total phenol content, antioxidant activity and characterized bioactive molecules (polyphenols, fatty acids). The only detected effect of storage was a slight whitening of the pomace flour and a small increase of volatile long chain esters and ketons after 6 months at 25 °C. Conclusions: The activity of several health-relevant bioactive compounds remained stable following storage of pomace flour for 6 months at 4 °C, supporting its possible use as a functional food ingredient.

Abstract
The aim of this research was to determine the potential of four unconventional Norwegian yeasts of the KVEIK type to produce NEIPA beer. The influence of yeast strains on fermentation process, physicochemical properties, antioxidant potential, volatile compounds, and sensory properties was investigated. The KVEIK-fermented beer did not differ in terms of physicochemical parameters from the beer produced with the commercial variants of US-05 yeast. The yeast strain influenced the sensory quality (taste and aroma) of the beers, with KVEIK-fermented beer rating significantly higher. The antioxidant activity of the tested beers also significantly depended on the yeast strain applied. The beers fermented with KVEIK had a significantly higher antioxidant potential (ABTS•+) than those fermented with US-05. The strongest antioxidant activity was found in the beer brewed with the Lida KVEIK yeast. The use of KVEIK to produce NEIPA beer allowed enrichment of the finished products with volatile compounds isobutanol, 2-pentanol, 3-methylobutanol, ethyl octanoate, and ethyl decanoate.
