Oxygen and its reactions in beer

Abstract: This review examines contemporary literature available on the deteriorative reactions of oxygen in beer and packaged beer. It attempts to identify the shelf-life factors affected by oxygen, discussing both the reactions and resultant compounds and their role in decreasing the shelf-life of the product. It attempts to determine whether lowering the total package oxygen to near-zero in packaged beer would result in an increased shelf-life.

“…The content was reduced in the first three months and by the end of storage (6 months) was approximately 18.6% lower than the starting concentration. This behavior was attributed to the oxidation of phenolic compounds by free radicals and polymerization with proteins [44]. The oxidation of polyphenols can lead to enhanced protein-polyphenol interactions and the formation of a colloidal haze or instability [9].…”

“…During beer oxidation, flavour is the sensory characteristic most affected, because of the oxidation of compounds such as unsaturated fatty acids, alcohols, and iso-α-acids, which results in flavours described as pasty, papery and cardboard produced by the carbonyl compounds, and beer staling resulting from trans-2-nonenal and acetaldehyde production 11 . The reduction of redox potential over 100 days of storage probably represents the formation of new stable products with the oxide and peroxide radicals that also promote undesirable changes in the beer.…”
