Unpacking 'Omics' in Brewing

This chapter delves into the 'omics' domains relevant to brewing, particularly focusing on proteomics and metabolomics. It highlights how advanced data analysis techniques are revolutionizing our understanding of protein dynamics and metabolite profiles in the brewing process. Practical applications are discussed, including the effects of packaging on beer stability and the influence of malt aging on flavor, alongside the challenges faced in metabolomic research.
