IMPORTANCE

Onion flavour from dimethyl trisulphide is a desirable hop-derived flavour note in some ales. As an off-flavour it is formed during ageing in package of pale lager beers. It can also be found in fresh lager beer as a result of wort boiling practices (specifically, lack of boil vigour in all-malt worts).

ORIGINS

Although produced from amino acids during wort boiling most dimethyl trisulphide is formed during storage of packaged beer. Some hops impart this character when used post-fermentation.

HOW TO TASTE

The best way to detect onion character arising from dimethyl trisulphide is as follows. Cover the beer with your hand and swirl the glass to release the aroma. Remove your hand and take a single long sniff. Repeat as necessary.

CAS NUMBER

The CAS registry number of dimethyl trisulphide is 75-18-3.
