    Abstract: Pretreating hops includes soaking hops in whiskey for a period of time until the hops absorb a portion of the whiskey and begin to swell. These pretreated hops are in the form of hop flowers, a hop extract, a concentrated hop resin or liquid, or combinations thereof. In any case, the pretreated hops take on the flavors and aromas of the whiskey. A beer product is described that uses these pretreated hops added during the boil stage of brewing the beer, during fermentation of the beer, and/or after fermentation of the beer. Adding the pretreated hops during the brewing process results in the flavors and aromas from the whiskey imparting to the beer. The process obviates the requirement for finishing the beer in whiskey barrels or adding whiskey to the beer product after manufacturing to obtain a complex flavor profile.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided that process beer into an oxygen-stable long shelf life spirit. The process includes introducing oxygen into the beer and heating the beer to a temperature within a predetermined temperature range and allowing the beer to age at the predetermined temperature for a number of days. During this aging process, the beer transforms into an oxidized beer spirit. The beer spirit is cooled to room temperature and is then chilled for a period of time to separate unwanted precipitate and byproducts from the beer spirit. After the beer spirit is chilled, the beer spirit is forced through at least one filter to remove precipitate and provide a clear and filtered spirit having a complex taste and aroma profile.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for the extraction of protein rich flour and fiber rich flour from brewer's spent grains (BSG). The extraction of protein from the BSG may include preparing the BSG by controlling the temperature in a hot grain storage system and in some cases dewatering the BSG to acceptable moisture content levels. In extracting the protein rich and fiber rich flour, the BSG is conveyed to a device that dries, mills, and fractionates the BSG into separated protein and fiber extract.
