Abstract:
Beer is an alcoholic beverage made by brewing and fermentation from
cereals and other essential ingredients consumed with a remarkable passion
for centuries.
• The type and quality of the raw material used has a decisive influence on
beer quality.
• malt barley is the most commonly used brewing raw material . But
unfortunately, malt barley is imported.
• In Ethiopia, because of the shortage of barley, coupled with the high cost of
its importation and inflation, local cereals may be used as alternates in
brewing.
