Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a beverage designed to regulate the alcoholic strength of a beer-flavored beverage without greatly deteriorating the beer flavor. <P>SOLUTION: The method for producing the whisky comprises distilling a malt liquor using a raw material for producing usual beer including hop without conventional malt for the whisky. Thereby, the malt liquor is separated into a part with a high alcoholic strength though with the beer flavor and a beverage scarcely containing alcohol. Gaseous carbon dioxide is then sealed in both. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a process for producing beer-flavored whiskey, wherein malt liquor using hops is distilled and carbon dioxide gas is enclosed. Depends on the manufacturing method used. [0002] Conventionally, beer is a brewed liquor, which is a drink that is supposed to be drunk with the alcohol content at the time of packaging. It is common to add light spirits to increase the alcohol content of the product itself, or add carbonated water to lower the alcohol content.
In each case, the taste of beer was lightened and the flavor was significantly impaired. In addition, conventional whiskey is made by distilling malt liquor, but there is no hop or carbon dioxide added to beer flavor that is indispensable. The flavor taste could not be obtained. [0003] In order to adjust the alcohol content of a beer-flavored beverage without significantly impairing the flavor, the beer-flavored beverage and the beer-flavored beverage have a higher alcohol content than normal beer. The aim is to produce a beverage containing almost no alcohol. [0004] Distilling malt liquor using raw materials for producing ordinary beer, including hops, instead of conventional malt for whiskey, provides a beer-flavored alcohol content. The method according to the present invention relates to a method of separating into a beverage having high alcohol content and a beverage containing almost no alcohol, and then filling the both with carbon dioxide gas. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Using raw materials for producing ordinary beer or beer-flavored malt liquor, malt liquor that has been completely fermented or aged by a method for producing such malt liquor is distilled to obtain an alcoholic content. A carbon dioxide gas or a nitrogen gas is dissolved in the raised portion to make a high alcoholic beer-flavored alcoholic beverage (whiskey). On the other hand, a portion having an alcohol content of less than 1% separated by distillation is defined as a beer-flavored soft drink for reducing the alcohol content. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. [0006] 500 mL of beer with a volume alcohol content of 5% after main fermentation is distilled, and a volume alcohol content of 40% is obtained.
Of liquid (a) and less than 1% of liquid (b). (A) formed above is cooled to 1 degree C once, and 0.7k
g / cm 2 of carbon dioxide gas was sealed and saturated, and bottled as a beer-flavored whiskey (A). (B) formed above is cooled to 1 degree C once, and 0.7k
g / cm2 of carbon dioxide gas was sealed and saturated, and the beer-flavored whiskey was broken and bottled (B). The above (A) and (B) were mixed in the following three amounts. (A) (B) 80ml: 920ml => 3.2% alcohol content 120ml: 880ml => 4.8% alcohol content 150ml: 850ml => 6.0% alcohol content These three types of mixed beverages and beer before distillation The results of the organoleptic examination showed that a change in taste due to a difference in alcohol level was recognized, but a difference in bitterness was not felt, and the difference in overall flavor as beer was small. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a beer-flavored alcoholic beverage which can easily adjust the alcohol content to taste without changing the flavor. Although a liquor tax is stipulated by a Cabinet Order, a high alcoholic spirit according to the present invention is subject to a liquor tax as whiskey. On the other hand, alcohol content is 1%
Beverages less than are soft drinks and are not subject to liquor tax. According to the result of the present invention, a whiskey portion that is subject to a liquor tax is 120 m in 1 liter of a mixed beverage having an alcohol content of 4.8%.
l, the liquor tax is 4 as of March 14, 2002.
It is 9.08 yen. On the other hand, beer 1 with the same alcohol content
The liquor tax imposed on the liter is 222 yen. Therefore,
If the tax rates of liquor tax stipulated by government ordinance on beer and whiskey have a difference as in today, the liquor tax per degree of alcohol has an effect that the beverage according to the present invention can be cheaper.
