- Aftertaste

This is the palateful quality and taste of the beer left in the mouth after drinking.
- Alcohol content
-
The alcohol content of beer is linked to the content of original extract, i.e. the fermentable constituents of the wort. Fermentation converts about a third of these substances into alcohol.
- Aroma hops

Unlike bitter hops, aroma hops are very rich in essential oils.
