| Sumario: | The increasing demand for more flavored and complex beers encourages the investigation of novel and non-conventional yeasts with the ability to provide a combination of bioflavoring and low ethanol yields. The present study identified 22 yeasts isolated from different brewing sources, including the fermentation by-products known as yeast sludges, and characterized a selection of strains to find the more suitable for the aforementioned aims. HPLC and GC-FID analysis of its brewing products were performed. The most promising results were obtained with the non-conventional yeasts Pichia kudriavzevii MBELGA61 and Meyerozyma guilliermondii MUS122. The former, isolated from a Belgian wheat beer sludge, was capable of growing in wort (17.0°Bx., 20 °C) with very low ethanol yields (1.19 % v/v). Besides, upon mixed fermentations with Saccharomyces cerevisiae, was suitable to produce volatile compounds such as ethyl acetate, 2-phenyl ethanol and isoamyl alcohol, with characteristic fruity notes. M. guilliermondii MUS122, isolated from a golden ale beer sludge, partially attenuated the wort with low production of ethanol and biomass. In addition, provided some fruity and floral nuances to the aroma profile of mixed fermentations with brewer's yeast. The results suggest that these strains favor the development of more fruity-flowery aroma profiles in beers. Furthermore, they are suitable for use in mixed fermentations with Saccharomyces brewer's strains, although the ethanol level did not decrease significantly. |
