    摘要: The present invention relates to a beer manufacturing device configured such that it is possible to directly produce and sell beer, the yeast of which is alive, on the spot without any expertise, and it is possible to easily manufacture various kinds of beer automatically at a low cost through a single session without a concern that the same will be contaminated by contact with the outside. A beer manufacturing device according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a machine room comprising a cooling device for generating cold air and a cold air storage portion for storing the cold air generated by the cooling device; a fermentation chamber having a plurality of chambers having independent spaces such that kegs that contain wort are mounted therein; and a support portion for supporting the machine chamber and the fermentation chamber. The fermentation chamber may comprise a cold air supply device for supplying the cold air stored in the cold air storage portion into the chambers, and a fermentation device for fermenting the wort contained in the kegs mounted in the chambers.
