Abstract

The hydrogen bonding was prone to be formed by many components in beer. Different sorts of flavor substances can affect the Chemical Shift due to their different concentrations in beer. Several key factors including 4 alcohols, 2 esters, 6 ions, 9 acids, 7 polyphenols, and 2 gravity indexes (OG and RG) were determined in this research. They could be used to investigate the relationship between hydrogen bonding intensity and the flavor components in bottled larger beers through the Correlation Analysis, Principal Component Analysis and Multiple Regression Analysis. Results showed that ethanol content was the primary influencing factor, and its correlation coefficient was 0.629 for Correlation Analysis. Some factors had a positive correlation with hydrogen bonding intensity, including the content of original gravity, ethanol, isobutanol, Cl, K+, pyruvic acid, lactic acid, gallic acid, vanillic acid, and Catechin in beer. A mathematic model of hydrogen bonding Chemical Shift and the content of ethanol, pyruvic acid, K+, and gallic acid was obtained through the Principal Component Analysis and Multiple Regression Analysis , with the adjusted R2 being 0.779 (P = 0.001). Ethanol content was proved to be the most important factor which could impact on hydrogen bonding association in beer by Principal Component Analysis. And then, a multiple non-linearity model could be obtained as follows: \( hydrogen\,bonding\,association\,intensity\,(CS) = 4.917 + 0.002\left[ E \right] - 0.006\left[ P \right] + 5.141E - 8\left[ {{K^2}} \right] + 5.378E - 5\left[ {G \times P} \right] + 2.428E - 5\left[ {K \times P} \right] + 2.369E - 5\left[ {{E^2}P} \right] - 1.63E - 5\left[ {{G^3}} \right] - 2.207E - 5\left[ {{P^3}} \right] - 5.247E - 7\left[ {{K^2}P} \right] - 3.037E - 5\left[ {{E^2}K} \right] \). The average error was 1.23 % in the validated experiment.
