Bitter is better - a review on the knowledge about bitterness in beer
Ch. Schönberger
Introduction
Bitter is, or should be, a descriptive term for beers. What makes the beer bitter in the first
place is the use of hops. The range of bitter units in beers used to be between 20 and 50
IBU (International Bitterness Units). Nowadays there is a very clear trend towards mild
beers with bitter units between 10 –25 and sometimes even lower. Originally used as a
preservative in beer, newest findings show us what hop-derived substances offer in
regard to health benefits. So there is hope that a new triumphant success of hops might
go along with a new increase of bitterness in beer. Bitterness is a topic which is very
important for all brewers and being a question of taste it can be discussed to everyone’s
taste. This article is to give a review on the knowledge about bitterness in beer and the
challenges in sensory and analytical evaluation of bitterness.
The bitter taste reception is different from the reception of the other four taste qualities,
which are sour, sweet, salty and umami, because evolution told us to be alert to bitter
foods and rightly so since it can be equated with dietary danger. Rancid fats, hydrolysed
proteins, plant-derived alkaloids, and toxins generally have an unpleasant bitter taste.
Also microbial fermentation often results in bitter tasting compounds (1). But bitter
flavours also contribute to the palatability and digestibility of food and beverages. Beer is
not the only consumer good with the tendency of decreasing bitterness. Responding to
taste-driven consumer demand of less bitter food, the food industry generally tries to
remove bitter compounds like phenolic compounds, flavonoids, isoflavones, terpenes,
and tannins from foods destined for human consumption. Because of such efforts,
current food supply is less bitter than it might otherwise be (2,3).
