 SafAle  US-05           IT IS NOT ONLY ETHANOL AND CO2 THAT PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN BEER. Its flavor

                    components are chemically and sensorially diverse. The unique flavor profiles

 SafAle  WB-06
                    of beer can largely be attributed to the biochemical activities within the yeast

                         THE YEAST-DERIVED, FLAVOR-ACTIVE COMPOUNDS INCLUDE CARBONYLS (aldehydes/
 ™
 SafAle  BE-134     ketones), vicinal diketones, fatty and organic acids, sulphur compounds,
 SafAle  HA-18      higher/fusel alcohols, esters (acetate and ethyl esters). For example, the last
 ™
                    ones correspond to a family of compounds closely linked to lipid metabolism
                    and yeast growth, and there are dozens of different esters present in beer that
                    often give fruity and floral notes.

 SafLager  S-23          THERE ARE TWO MAIN ESTERS GROUPS: first, the so-called acetate esters
                    (in which the acid group is acetate and the alcohol group is ethanol or a
 SafLager  S-189    complex alcohol derived from amino acid metabolism). Examples are ethyl
 ™
 SafLager  W-34/70  acetate (solvent-like aroma), isoamyl acetate (banana aroma), and phenyl
 ™
                    ethyl acetate (roses, honey). The second group, called ethyl esters (in which
                    the alcohol group is ethanol and the acid group is a medium-chain fatty acid),
 Bottle and cask conditioning  includes ethyl hexanoate (aniseed, apple like aroma), ethyl octanoate (fruity,
                    apple aroma), and ethyl decanoate (floral/fruity).

                         THE AMOUNT AND/OR VARIETY OF FLAVORING COMPOUNDS in beer is a consequence
                    of the metabolism of a given yeast strain, with a particular wort composition
                    and process parameters. The effect of some of these flavoring agents can
