M. VANČURA, J. KUBÍČEK, J. LOOS

To minimize lossese of hop bitter substances due to very high attenuation degree necessary to brew the DIA-Beer (i. e. diabetic beer the authors have reduced in several brewings the amount of hops by 50 %. To give the beer required bitter taste 2 % water solution of izoextract has been added by metering it into the process tank. From a thorough evaluation of the quality of pilot brewings follows, that roughly 50 % of hops can be substituted by izoextract without any negative effects upon organoleptic properties of beer. Economic side of the substitution is also favourable.
