Abstract: The invention pertains to a beer having an ethanol content of 0 - 1.0 vol.%, comprising at least 0.001 µg/l ethyl-2-methylpentanoate (EMP). It has been found that EMP has a strong wort-flavor masking effect. A beer of the invention has low wort-flavor and less overpowering flavor, and is generally considered refreshing.
