Bioflavouring of beer using new Czech hop varieties
Ondruch, Petr ; Diviš, Pavel (referee) ; Pořízka, Jaromír (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on bioflavouring of beer using new czech hop varieties. Dry hopping is a phenomem, that contributes to the attractiveness and diversity of beer and is nowadays gaining in popularity. The aim of this work was to determine the effect of dry hopping on sensory profile and analytical parametrs of dry-hopped beers using czech hop varieties. Sensory evaluation and chemical analysis of these beers were taken. The chemical analysis included determination of the basic beer characteristics, total phenolic a flavonoid content, antioxidant activity and the concentration of selected organic acids and chemical elements. It was found out that dry-hopped beers compared to the reference beer presented higher bitterness, antioxidant activity and contained higher amount of flavonoids. Also an increase in pottasium, manganese, copper, calcium and malic acid levels was reported. The pH of beer samples was not affected by dry hopping. Sensory evaluation showed that dry hopping had a positive influence on the overall enjoyment of the beer, which was mainly determined by the higher aroma and more intense bitterness. By summaring all the data, it is obvious that dry hopping of beer using new czech hop varieties has a positive effect on the quality of the final beer and these hop varities are suitable for further use in the beer industry.

Study of sensory-active compounds of hops in dry-hopped beers
Zlochová, Tereza ; Sobotníková, Jana (advisor) ; Jelínek, Ivan (referee)
Study of sensory-active compounds of hops in dry-hopped beers Key words: hop, hop oils, dry-hopping, beer, beer-aging, beer sensory analysis Nowadays, dry-hopping is a widely used method of beer making, with its pros and cons. The main purpose of dry-hopping is to derive specific hop aroma to beer in its very unchanged form. The essential part of this work consists of a study of hop essential oils, as the main providers of desired hop aroma. Firstly, the validation of methods for isolating essential oils from hop material and beer is carried out. Secondly, the transfer of these volatiles in process of dry-hopping is studied and the impact on beer aroma profile is discussed. Subsequently, changes of essential oils profile during beer-aging are observed and evaluated with a valuable tool, the sensory analysis. This study was realized on beer samples from Brewers' Choice program, thanks to the Research Institute of Brewing and Malting and Lenka Strakova, the Pilsner Urquell brewer.
