Distributable packaging unit with beer-type liquid

Abstract

A distributable packing unit with a beer-type liquid whose ingredients are approximately 89-94 wt.-% water and approximately 3.0-5.5 wt.-% beer extract including bittern from hops and that has a CO 2 content of 1.5 g/kg liquid or less, with said beer-type liquid being stored in a tight, multi-layer transport and storage container that surrounds the liquid.

1 . A distributable packaging unit comprising:
 a tight, multi-layer transport and storage container;   a beer-type liquid in said storage container, said beer-type liquid comprising:
 approximately 89-94 wt.-% water; and 
 approximately 3.0-5.5 wt.-% beer extract, said beer extract comprising bittern from hops, wherein said beer extract has a CO 2  content of 1.5 g/kg liquid or less. 
   
   
   
       2 . A distributable packaging unit according to  claim 1  wherein said CO 2  content is less than 1 g/kg liquid. 
   
   
       3 . A distributable packaging unit according to  claim 2 , wherein said CO 2  content is 0.5 g/kg or less. 
   
   
       4 . A distributable packaging unit according to  claim 1  wherein said container inhibits oxygen diffusion. 
   
   
       5 . A distributable packaging unit according to  claim 4  wherein the container has a maximum oxygen permeability of 0.1 mg/month/liter container volume. 
   
   
       6 . A distributable packaging unit according to  claim 1  wherein said container comprises composite material packaging. 
   
   
       7 . A distributable packaging unit according to  claim 1  wherein said container comprises bag-in-box packaging. 
   
   
       8 . A distributable packaging unit according to  claim 1  wherein the container does not withstand high pressure values. 
   
   
       9 . A distributable packaging unit according to  claim 1  wherein an oxygen content of the liquid is less than or equal to 1 mg/l. 
   
   
       10 . A distributable packaging unit according to  claim 1  wherein an oxygen content of the liquid is less than or equal to 0.5 mg/l max. 
   
   
       11 . A distributable packaging unit according to  claim 1  wherein said liquid is brewed from grain malt, hops, mash liquor and yeast and wherein the CO 2  produced during fermentation is removed using decarbonization.
