Coffee-beer

A drink somewhere between coffee and beer could soon be on the menu. Nestec, part of the Nestlé empire in Switzerland, has filed patents in every major market round the world on a "fermented coffee beverage" that pours and foams like beer, but smells of strong coffee and packs a concentrated caffeine kick.

The beverage is made in a similar way to beer, but fine-tuned temperature control stops the formation of ethyl alcohol. So the new drink could go down well with people who want a long tall pick-me-up while driving.

Nestlé admits it was tricky to preserve the characteristic coffee smell in the production process. Coffee beans are roasted normally, and the chemicals containing the natural aroma collected in a cryogenic condenser, before being converted into coffee oil. The remains of the roast are then ground to powder, mixed with yeast and sucrose, and fermented for 4 hours at just below 22°C. At this temperature the yeast can still metabolise but does not generate alcohol.

The aroma oil is then mixed in with the liquid and nitrogen is injected to make it foam. Adding a touch of extra sugar also helps trap the aroma until the drink is poured, Nestlé claim.

yeah..that is rather dumb

SilentKnight · 11-01-2005, 03:04 PM

Frankly, I didn't notice any difference after drinkin' a 6-pack of Molson Kicks beer...than any other normal 5% alcohol beer. Still felt the urge for a snooze afterwards, heh.

Maybe mass quantity makes a difference. Will hafta' try it with a two-four sometime soon.

The difference is they are doing freeze dried instant. Like most of their products that make them the super large force they are.

Doctor Dre · 11-01-2005, 03:16 PM

It's not really beer then ... no alchool in it .

For real beer, molson and labatt are already in the market... not really cofee, but more like redbull

That's what I was thinking... but the difference (besides reality and fiction) is that this "beer" is non-alcoholic.

Hollywood Horwitz · 11-01-2005, 04:46 PM

yeah,the beer with caffine is already been around,but coffee beer is something new,not sure if it would catch on though..

PixeLs · 11-01-2005, 06:35 PM

Ok, looks like another stuff will again take a slice of my budget.

What is the point of non-alcoholic beer? All the gut with none of the buzz?
