Description

非発酵ビール様発泡性飲料Non-fermenting beer-like sparkling beverage
 本発明は、ホップを原料としない場合であっても、ビールらしい苦味を有する非発酵ビール様発泡性飲料に関する。
 本願は、2014年10月24日に、日本に出願された特願2014-217166号に基づき優先権を主張し、その内容をここに援用する。
The present invention relates to a non-fermented beer-like sparkling beverage having a bitter taste like beer even when hops are not used as a raw material.
This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2014-217166 filed in Japan on October 24, 2014, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
 ビールとは異なり、発酵工程を経ずに製造される非発酵ビール様発泡性飲料は、特別な発酵装置を要することなく製造することができるため、低コストで大量生産するのに向いている。非発酵性ビール様発泡性飲料においてホップを使用した場合、好ましい苦味は付与できるものの、本来発酵中に低減されるホップ由来の生臭い香気が製品に残存してしまう傾向がある。一方で、ホップを用いずに製造された非発酵ビール様発泡性飲料は、ビールらしい苦味が劣るという問題がある。 Unlike beer, non-fermented beer-like sparkling beverages that are manufactured without undergoing a fermentation process can be manufactured without requiring a special fermentation device, and are therefore suitable for mass production at low cost. When hops are used in a non-fermentable beer-like sparkling beverage, a favorable bitter taste can be imparted, but the raw odor derived from hops that is originally reduced during fermentation tends to remain in the product. On the other hand, non-fermented beer-like sparkling beverages manufactured without using hops have a problem that the bitterness typical of beer is inferior.
 非発酵ビール様発泡性飲料においては、ビールらしい風味や香味になるように、甘味料、酸味料、苦味物質、香料等を適宜添加する。飲料に配合される苦味物質としては種々のものが知られており、例えば、ホップ由来の苦味物質、カフェイン、ゲンチアナ抽出物、ペプチド類、テオブロミン、アロイン、ナリンジン、ニガヨモギ抽出物、β-グルコオリゴ糖、キナ抽出物等が挙げられる。また、単に甘味料、酸味料、苦味物質を選択して混合した場合に生じる香味のばらつき感を抑制するために、グルコン酸ナトリウムを含有させる方法が開示されている(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。その他、ノンアルコールビール様発泡性飲料において、酸味料と苦味物質の濃度を特定の範囲内に調節することによってアルコール感を付与する方法も開示されている(例えば、特許文献2参照。)。 In non-fermented beer-like effervescent beverages, sweeteners, acidulants, bitter substances, flavors, and the like are added as appropriate so as to have a beer-like flavor and flavor. Various bitter substances to be blended in beverages are known. For example, hop-derived bitter substances, caffeine, gentian extract, peptides, theobromine, aloin, naringin, sagebrush extract, β-glucooligosaccharide And kina extract and the like. In addition, a method of containing sodium gluconate is disclosed in order to suppress the flavor variation that occurs when a sweetener, a sour agent, and a bitter substance are selected and mixed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). ). In addition, in a non-alcohol beer-like sparkling beverage, a method of imparting an alcohol feeling by adjusting the concentration of a sour agent and a bitter substance within a specific range is also disclosed (for example, see Patent Document 2).

The insoluble matter removal treatment is not particularly limited, and can be performed by a method usually used in the technical field such as a filtration method or a centrifugal separation method. In the present invention, insoluble matters are preferably removed by filtration, and more preferably removed by diatomaceous earth filtration.
 次いで、工程(b)として、工程(a)により得られた調合液に炭酸ガスを加える。これにより、非発酵ビール様発泡性飲料を得る。炭酸を加えることによって、ビールと同様の爽快感が付与される。なお、炭酸ガスの添加は、常法により行うことができる。例えば、工程(a)により得られた調合液、及び炭酸水を混合してよく、工程(a)により得られた調合液に炭酸ガスを直接加えて溶け込ませてもよい。 Next, as a step (b), carbon dioxide gas is added to the preparation liquid obtained in the step (a). Thereby, a non-fermented beer-like sparkling beverage is obtained. By adding carbonic acid, a refreshing feeling similar to that of beer is given. Carbon dioxide can be added by a conventional method. For example, the preparation liquid obtained by the step (a) and carbonated water may be mixed, and carbon dioxide gas may be directly added and dissolved in the preparation liquid obtained by the step (a).
 炭酸ガスを添加した後、得られた非発酵ビール様発泡性飲料に対して、さらに香料等の原料を添加してもよく、また濾過等の不溶物を除去する処理を行ってもよい。不溶物除去処理は、特に限定されるものではなく、当該技術分野で通常用いられている方法で行うことができる。 After adding carbon dioxide gas, the obtained non-fermented beer-like sparkling beverage may be further added with raw materials such as fragrances, or may be subjected to a treatment for removing insoluble matters such as filtration.

 この結果、クアシンとカフェインを組合せて含有させたサンプルでは、舌に貼り付くような苦味が強調され、ビールらしい苦味を達成することができなかった。 As a result, in the sample containing a combination of quasine and caffeine, the bitter taste sticking to the tongue was emphasized, and the bitter taste like beer could not be achieved.
