| Summary: | Ficus hirta Vahl. (FHV) is widely consumed because of its functional and aromatic compounds. The incorporation of adjuncts contributes to the functional and flavor properties of beers. This study aims to enrich FHV extractions to develop beers with satisfactory physicochemical, antioxidant, and sensory characteristics. As a result, beers with 0.1 g/mL (P1) and 0.067 g/mL (P3) FHV extraction showed the highest values of physicochemical properties including °Brix, antioxidant activity, foam, lightness, and color intensity. Electronic nose and tongue results show that the aroma of P1 and taste of P3 were quite different from those of other FHV beers, resulting in substantially high consumer preference. The liking drivers of FHV beers were color appearance, hop and malty odor, sweet and malty flavor, thickness, and carbonation mouthfeel. However, the astringency flavor attribute was the disliking factor for beers. The results of this study may provide some references and guidelines for the development of Ficus hirta Vahl. functional beer to control the physicochemical, antioxidative, and sensory properties of the beer. |
