Scientific Digest

Beer Lightstruck Flavor: The Full Story

Denis DE KEUKELEIRE, Arne HEYERICK, Kevin HUVAERE, Leif H. SKIBSTED and Mogens L. ANDERSEN

Abstract:
The pronounced sensitivity of beer to light is well known and leads irreversibly to the formation of lightstruck flavor (LSF), the so-called “skunking” of beer. It is the cause of a significant shelf-life problem for the brewing industry and is the primary reason for the storage of beer in darkcolored containers. The light-sensitivity of beers was first recognized as early as in 1875, however it was not until the early sixties that the basic science underlying the formation of LSF was established. Studies using model systems showed that LSF was produced in a non-enzymic light-induced reaction involving riboflavin (1) (as a sensitizer), a suitable sulfur-containing compound, and isohumulones, the main beer-bittering principles. The typical skunky flavor was attributed to the formation of 3- methylbut-2-ene-1-thiol (MBT), a pungent off-flavor in beer with a flavor threshold of few ng per litre. Later it was shown that also direct UV irradiation of isohumulones affords radical precursors of MBT. Still, the exact reaction mechanism remained elusive until recent detailed investigations. Herein, the mechanistic details for the formation of LSF in beer are comprehensively reviewed.
