Protecting efficiency of beer bottles colour against harmful sunlight.Peer-reviewed article

V. POSPÍŠIL, M. KŘÍŽ

Light transmitting properties of beer and of 9 sorts of beer bottles of different colours have been studied by means of spectral analysis. The results of accurate measurements and organoleptic tests indicate that the protecting properties of bottles should be determined by measuring the light transmission in the 300 - 500 nm range this being the critical band of radiation harmful to beer.
