Article Review

In this paper, I review the article Fundamentals of Beer and Hop Chemistry, authored by Keukeliere, D. (2010).

Keukelier (2010) notes that, barley, and most specifically barley malt, is the main body of beer. In order to produce one liter of beer, a few hundred grams of barley malt are needed. However, Keukeliere (2010) indicates that in the absence of barley malt, starch-rich adjuncts such as wheat, corn or rice can be used. Keukeliere (2010) notifies ...

Water stood as a natural resource humans consume for drinking. Yet, innovation led humans to use water to develop various kinds of drinks. Therefore, Tom Standage bases his book A History of the World in 6 Glasses on the unfolding of ...
