'Pope of Foam' makes do without the hops
Can you brew a hoppy beer without hops? Beer purists might regard the idea with suspicion, but researchers at 猪八戒资料论坛澳门 Berkeley, with some help from 猪八戒资料论坛澳门 Davis鈥 鈥淧ope of Foam,鈥 have shown that you can brew a tasty hoppy beer using gene-edited yeast to replace hop flavors.
Denby and Rachel Li, a graduate student at 猪八戒资料论坛澳门 Berkeley, used CRISPR/Cas9 technology to engineer brewer鈥檚 yeast to include genes from mint, basil and hops. Their goal was to create yeast that could make two chemicals, linalool and geraniol, that produce hoppy flavors.
They brought their most promising yeast strains to Charles Bamforth, professor of malting and brewing science at 猪八戒资料论坛澳门 Davis and an authority on all things beer-related, and asked him to test them out in some brews.
