ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a method and composition for enhancing the foam properties of a fermented malt beverage. Briefly stated, the method comprises adding to the beverage an isohumulone extract in the amount of between about 0.1 ppm and about 20 ppm by weight of the beverage and foaming proteins in the amount of between about 2 ppm and about 250 ppm by weight of the beverage. The fermented malt beverage foam-enhancing composition comprises a mixture of isohumulone extract and foaming proteins, wherein the ratio of isohumulone extract to foaming proteins is between about 1 to about 1 and about 1 to about 2500. Further disclosed is a beverage composition with enhanced foam properties which comprises (a) a fermented malt beverage, (b) an isohumulone extract, the extract comprising between about 0.1 ppm and about 20 ppm by weight of the fermented malt beverage; and (c) foaming proteins, the proteins comprising between about 2 ppm and about 250 ppm by weight of the fermented malt beverage.
