Beer, as an ancient and widely consumed alcoholic beverage, holds a rich cultural heritage and history. In recent years, fruit beer has gained significant attention as a distinct beer type produced by incorporating fruit juice into traditional beer ingredients. This study employed headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry techniques, redundancy analysis, and orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminant analysis to analyze the sensory evaluation, physicochemical properties, organic acids, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of loquat beer with different proportions of loquat juice.

FTPs was shown to exhibit higher levels of uronic acids, proteins, and polyphenols as compared to ECPs (p < 0.05), contributing to the superior antioxidant activity observed in FTPs.

Here, green kernel black beans (GKBBs) were solid-fermented with E. cristatum and dynamic changes in flavour, chemical composition and metabolites during fermentation were investigated.
