Abstract
Flavour stability is probably the most critical quality challenge brewers currently face, a concern transverse to all beer styles. Beer flavour starts to deteriorate almost immediately after production ends. Strategies to ensure and extend the beer shelf-life has mainly been studied, namely, the impact of the production process and raw material, the packaging and more recently, the transport and storage conditions. This review discusses the studies carried out on the impact of transport and storage in beer flavour characteristics for the first time. The impacts of the temperature, time and vibrations, the external factors which most impairs the overall beer quality, are reviewed and discussed according to the results published in the last 15 years. The temperature was the impact factor studied in more detail; nevertheless, recent studies highlight that this cannot be studied individually due to the importance of vibrations (e.g. trucks, ships, trains or aeroplanes) that bottled beer experiences during transport. The most common beer properties monitored to evaluate the impact of these variables are aldehyde compounds (e.g. Strecker degradation aldehydes, lipid oxidation aldehydes and various aldehydes). We also discuss the limitation of forced ageing methods for evaluating and predicting the influence of external transport and storage factors on beer flavour stability.
