From DE-A-14 42 279, a production method for a beer is known in which the raw materials used are concentrates.
Caffeine-containing coffee may be among the ingredients used in this process. The coffee is added to modify the taste of the beer.
EP 0 252 063 describes a beverage containing carbonic acid and caffeine. This beverage consists of a beer based on hop and malt to which a quantity of 65 to 150 mg/l of caffeine is added.
The beverages that represent the state of the art have tastes that satisfy only a part of the consumers.
(d) DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
It is therefore the problem of this invention to provide a beverage that has a fruity flavor and taste.
This problem is solved by an alcoholic aqueous beverage characterized in that it contains ingredients of hemp plants, especially of flowers, flower parts, pellets, flower extracts and/or flower distillates.
A preferred embodiment of the beverage according to the invention contains ingredients of hemp flowers and/or hemp flower parts and/or pellets in quantities ranging from 0.05 to 10 per cent by weight, or components of hemp flower extracts or distillates in quantities ranging from 0.005 to 5 per cent by weight.
Cannabinoids from the Felina, Fedora and/or Futura strains are particularly preferred. Moreover, hemp plants with a c 0.3~ tetrahydrocannabinol content are particularly preferred.
Anothe- preferred embodiment of the alcoholic aqueous beverage according to the invention is characterized in that it contains 3 to 20 per cent by weight of an extract obtained from cereal malt or crude fruit or by adding sugar, 0.03 to 0.7 per cent by weight of hop and 0.0002 to 0.005 per cent by weight of yeast.
Another object of this invention is a method of producing an alcoholic aqueous beverage by conventional mashing of the malt, lautering, boiling, cooling, fermenting, and storing that is characterized in that hemp plants, especially flowers and/or flower parts and/or products produced thereof may be added at any point in time during boiling, fermenting, or storage.
In a particularly preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the hemp flowers and/or flower parts and/or products thereof added are from the Felina, Fedora and/or Futura strains. Another preferred additive are hemp plants with a tetrahydrocannabinol content below 0.3~.
Another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention is characterized in that ingredients of hemp flowers and/or hemp flower parts and/or pellets are added in quantities ranging from 0.05 to 10 per cent by weight, or ingredients of hemp flower extracts or distillates in quantities ranging from 0.005 to 5 per cent by weight.
The pellets, extracts and distillates are produced from the hemp flowers or hemp flower parts using methods that are known to an expert skilled in the art. The beverage of the invention has a fruity flavor and taste in nuances ranging from grapefruit to mango and passion fruit.
Before the beverage is filled in bottles, cans, barrels, containers or other material handling units, the specified quantities of hemp flowers and/or hemp flower parts may be added.
Before filling, any yeast cells and proteins can be removed from the beverage using the known filtering methods and, optionally, common filtration accelerators and/or stabilizers, and/or the beverage can be preserved subsequently using the flash pasteurization process which is known to an expert skilled in the art.
(e) ONE MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The invention shall now be explained in more detail using the examples below.
Example 1 125 g of Felina hemp flowers per hectoliter are added to a conventionally brewed beer during boiling, and the beverage thus obtained is filled in a suitable container.
Example 2 4000 g of Fedora hemp flower extract per hectoliter are added to a fermentation product produced in the generally known way of a beer containing 4.9 volume ~ of alcohol using cereal malt, hop and yeast, and the beverage produced in this way is filled in suitable containers.
Example 3 A barley-based beer is brewed in the conventional way with a 9~ original wort content. After the fermentation process, 7860 g per hectoliter of Futura hemp flower parts containing 0.00003~ tetrahydrocannabinol are added to the beverage in the storage tank, then the beverage is filtered and bottled. The sleepiness some people feel after drinking beer is at least partly compensated by the stimulating effect of the fruity flavor and taste of the hemp flower parts.
Example 4 Method of producing the alcoholic aqueous beverage.
The cereal malt is crushed using a malt mill and intermixed with water in a suitable vessel. The malt-to-water ratio may vary in the range from 1 : 2 to 1 : 8 WEN336E2 .DOC
depending on the alcohol content the finished beverage shall have. The total mash is heated over several temperature steps up to a maximum temperature of 80~C in an infusion or decoction process as is typically applied at breweries. Depending on the quality of the malt used and the desired properties of the beverage, this process may take between 60 and 220 minutes.
The solids contained in the malt (called husks or grains) are separated from the dissolved constituents of the extract that were liquefied during mashing using either a lauter tun equipped with a strainer bottom or a mash filter. As a rule, the extract retained in the grains is washed out after the first filtration cycle using hot water with a maximum temperature of 80~C. This process, however, is optional.
The wort obtained from lautering is boiled with hop at a boiling temperature between 96~C and 150~C and a boiling time ranging from 60 seconds to 180 minutes depending on the method applied.
Hemp flower parts or products thereof may be added in the quantities specified according to the invention either separately or in combination at any point in time during this process.
After finishing the boiling process, the break (trub) is removed from the liquid which is now called wort using an appropriate vessel (e. g. a whirlpool separator) or apparatus (e. g. a centrifuge).
Subsequently, the wort is cooled down to the desired pitching temperature using a heat exchanger or coolship.
The pitching temperature is between 4~C and 26~C
depending on the type of yeast and yeast culture used.
WEN3 3 6E2 . DOC
Hemp flower parts or products thereof may be added in the quantities specified according to the invention either separately or in combination at any point in time during this process.
The primary fermentation process is carried out using a bottom- or top-fermenting beer or brewer~s yeast and/or a wine yeast. The wort is ventilated before, during, or after adding the yeast. The desired oxygen content of the wort is in the range from 8 mg/l to 12 mg/l.
The wort is fermented in appropriate open or closed vessels or containers that are equipped with a refrigeration system (direct or room cooling) to control the fermenting temperature. The fermenting temperature varies between 4~C and 26~C depending on the type of yeast and yeast culture used. The primary fermentation process takes between 2 and 14 days, again depending on type of yeast and yeast culture used and on the extract content of the wort.
Hemp flower parts or products thereof may be added in the quantities specified according to the invention either separately or in combination at any point in time during this process.
Secondary fermentation or storage is a ripening process in which the residual extract is slowly or calmly fermented at temperatures in the range from 2~C to 12~C
within 7 to 120 days. Carbonic acid produced in the fermentation process accumulates in the beverage depending on the counterpressure set during storage in special closed storage tanks that are exposed either to direct or to room cooling and equipped with a plug apparatus.
WBN3 3 6B2 . DOC
Hemp flower parts or products thereof may be added in the quantities specified according to the invention either separately or in combination at any point in time during this process.
The beverage can be filtered and optionally pasteurized before filling. It is filled in suitable containers either directly from the storage tank or after filtering and pasteurizing. The beverage is collected in a buffer tank after filtration. Hemp flower parts or products thereof may be added in the quantities specified according to the invention either separately or in combination during this process as well.
Subsequently, the beverage is filled in bottles, cans, barrels, containers or other material handling units.
Example 5 Method of producing an alcoholic aqueous beverage (all quantities specified referring to 100 liters).
Raw materials a) 7 kg Pilsen malt, 7 kg Munich malt, 2 kg light cara-malt, 2 kg wheat malt b) 52 1 softened water (primary flush) c) 110 g Hallertauer Perle flavouring hop d) 300 g Felina 34 farmed hemp flowers Milling the total amount of malt, also called the grist, is crushed in a roller mill.
WE:N336i32 .DOC
Mashing the grist is now intermixed with water that has been pre-heated to 52~C (primary flush). Subsequently, the batch is heated to 62 - 64 ~C (lst temperature rest, duration:
S 30 min). Then the batch is heated up again to 72 - 74 ~C
(2nd temperature rest, so-called saccharification rest, duration: 30 min) When the mash has reached iodine normality (no more starch is present), it is heated to 76 - 78 ~C for mash discharge (pumping the mash from the mash tub into the lauter tun).
Lautering after mash discharge the mash is lautered (for settling the solid and undissolved constituents of the mash which then form a filter bed on the strainer tray of the lauter tun). After the settling is removed and pumped back, the original wort is drained off (20 to 24 liters, extract content: 18 to 22 wt %, duration: 30 to 35 min). Now the grains settling is causticized in three succeeding spargings (using softened water at a temperature of 76 ~C) that are composed as follows:
1st sparging: 30 liters, duration: 35 to 45 min, extract content: 12 to 18 wt ~;
2nd sparging: 25 liters, duration: 25 to 35 min, extract content: 6 to 12 wt ~
3rd sparging: 25 liters, duration: 25 to 35 min, extract content; 1.5 to 6 wt ~
Lautering is finished after the grains settling has been dried by extracting (15 to 20 liters, duration: 25 to 35 min, extract content: 0.5 - 1.5 wt ~) so that it can now be removed (removal of the grains settling from the laughter tun); at the same time the wort obtained is W~N336C2 . WC
heated to boiling in the wort copper. The yield resulting from the quantities used is 115 to 120 liters (full wort copper volume) at an extract content of 10.5 to 11.5 wt ~.
Boiling As soon as boiling begins, hop is added (setting of the basic bitter flavor). Hemp is added after half of the 90 minutes of boiling time is over.
Sepaxating The wort is now rotated (whirlpool effect) for the trub (coagulated protein + hop tannins) to settle in the center of the wort boiler. This trub is subsequently separated. The actual separating process is carried out by draining off the wort via a cooling system. The cooled wort is directly passed into the fermentation vessel.
Pitching The wort is sufficiently ventilated in the cooling process. 0.5 liter of syrupy yeast is added under uniform stirring. Fermentation starts after 12 to 24 hours.
Fermentation Top fermentation at 18 to 22 ~C, which takes 6 to 8 days as a rule. The new beer has reached its storing maturity at an aerometer reading of 3.5 to 4.0 wt ~, i.e. 1.0 to 1.5 wt ~ above the final degree of fermentation, and it can now be filled in the storage tanks.
storaqe The new beer is now stored in closed tanks at a temperature of 0 to 2~C for a period of 3 to 4 weeks.
After this time, it is refilled in retailing containers from which it is served without any further filtering.
