さらに、本発明に係るビールテイスト飲料は、発泡性であってもよい。ここで、本発明において「発泡性」とは、20℃における炭酸ガス圧が0.049MPa(0.5kg/cm)以上であることを意味する。炭酸ガスは、発酵で生成したものであってもよいし、カーボネーション(炭酸ガス圧入)により炭酸ガスを付与したものであってもよい。カーボネーション工程は、バッチ式で行ってもよいし、配管路に炭酸ガス圧入システム(カーボネーター)が組み込まれたインライン方式で連続的に行ってもよい。また、カーボネーション工程は、フォーミング(泡噴き)の発生等を避けるために、液の液温を10℃以下(好ましくは4℃以下)として行うのが好適である。 Furthermore, the beer-taste beverage according to the present invention may be effervescent. Here, in the present invention, “foaming” means that the carbon dioxide gas pressure at 20 ° C. is 0.049 MPa (0.5 kg / cm 2 ) or more. The carbon dioxide gas may be produced by fermentation, or may be carbon dioxide gas added by carbonation (carbon dioxide gas injection). The carbonation step may be performed in a batch system, or may be performed continuously in an in-line system in which a carbon dioxide gas injection system (carbonator) is incorporated in a pipeline. In addition, the carbonation step is preferably performed at a liquid temperature of 10 ° C. or less (preferably 4 ° C. or less) in order to avoid forming (foam blowing) or the like.

なお、本発明に係るビールテイスト飲料の製造方法は、旨味系アミノ酸/GABA、旨味系アミノ酸合計含有量、GABA含有量を調整する工程など前述した工程については、その方法にしたがって行うのが好ましいが、その他の工程については常法にしたがえばよく、特段限定はされない。製造方法の一例としては、まず、麦芽、大麦等を含む原料を使用して常法により麦汁を調製し、必要であればホップなどをこの麦汁に添加して煮沸し、沈殿物を除去してから所定の条件で酵母による発酵を行う。発酵後は貯酒(熟成)および濾過を行って製品とする。必要であれば、任意の工程において、スピリッツ等の添加やアルコールの除去などによるアルコール度数の調整や、カーボネーションを行ってもよい。さらに、この製品を金属製容器、ガラス製容器などに充填して提供してもよい。   In the method for producing a beer-taste beverage according to the present invention, the above-mentioned steps such as the step of adjusting the umami-based amino acid / GABA, the total content of the umami-based amino acid, and the GABA content are preferably performed according to the method. The other steps may be performed according to a conventional method, and are not particularly limited. As an example of the production method, first, wort is prepared by a conventional method using raw materials including malt, barley, and the like, and if necessary, hops and the like are added to the wort and boiled to remove a precipitate. After that, fermentation with yeast is performed under predetermined conditions. After fermentation, the product is stored (aged) and filtered to produce a product. If necessary, in an optional step, the alcohol content may be adjusted by adding spirits or the like, or alcohol may be removed, or carbonation may be performed. Further, the product may be provided by being filled in a metal container, a glass container, or the like.

本発明のビールテイスト飲料は、旨味系アミノ酸やGABAなどを含むエキス分全体については、通常のビールテイスト飲料で設定される範囲(例えば、エキス分として0.5〜6.0g/100cm程度)から大幅に逸脱しなければ、本発明の効果発揮に大きな影響を与えない。 In the beer-taste beverage of the present invention, the entire extract containing umami amino acids, GABA, and the like is in a range set by a normal beer-taste beverage (for example, about 0.5 to 6.0 g / 100 cm 3 as the extract).

この分析結果および官能評価結果を下記表2に示した。この結果、旨味系アミノ酸/GABAが0.45、旨味系アミノ酸含有量が33mg/LであるサンプルI(トップの旨味があまりなく、旨味の後残りもない試験サンプル)に対して、旨味系アミノ酸/GABAが41.47、旨味系アミノ酸含有量が117mg/LであるサンプルII、旨味系アミノ酸/GABAが1.61、旨味系アミノ酸含有量が124mg/LであるサンプルIII、および旨味系アミノ酸/GABAが1.86、旨味系アミノ酸含有量が138mg/LであるサンプルIVは、トップの旨味を十分感じるけれども旨味の後残りは少なくキレがよいことが明らかとなった。また、旨味系アミノ酸/GABAが2.16、旨味系アミノ酸含有量が152mg/LであるサンプルVは、トップの旨味を十分感じるが旨味の後残りがある(キレが悪い)ことも明らかとなった。   The analysis results and the sensory evaluation results are shown in Table 2 below. As a result, the umami amino acid / GABA was 0.45 and the umami amino acid content was 33 mg / L. / GABA is 41.47, sample II having an umami amino acid content of 117 mg / L, umami amino acid / sample III having a GABA of 1.61, umami amino acid content of 124 mg / L, and umami amino acid / Sample IV having a GABA of 1.86 and an umami-based amino acid content of 138 mg / L showed that although the top umami was sufficiently felt, the residue after the umami was small and sharp. In addition, it is also clear that Sample V having an umami-based amino acid / GABA of 2.16 and an umami-based amino acid content of 152 mg / L sufficiently feels the top umami but has a residue after the umami (poor sharpness). Was.

また、上記分析結果から、本実施例においては、麦芽使用比率を変えることによって旨味系アミノ酸のうち特にAsp、GluおよびArgの含有量の変動が大きくなることが示された。   In addition, the results of the above analysis show that in this example, the content of Asp, Glu, and Arg among the umami amino acids greatly fluctuated by changing the malt usage ratio.

以上より、旨味系アミノ酸/GABAを概ね1.00以上2.00以下の範囲とし、また、旨味系アミノ酸含有量を概ね50mg/L以上140mg/L以下の範囲とすれば、トップの旨味がはっきり感じられ且つ旨味のキレがよいビールテイスト飲料が得られることが示された。   From the above, if the umami amino acid / GABA is in the range of about 1.00 to 2.00 and the umami amino acid content is in the range of about 50 mg / L to 140 mg / L, the top umami will be clear. It was shown that a beer-taste beverage that was felt and had good sharpness was obtained.
