“…The compounds previously reported by Van Oevelen et al [12] were acetic acid, lactic acid, butyric acid, propionic acid, isobutyric acid, propanol, butanol, isobutanol, isoamyl alcohol, amyl alcohol, phenethylalcohol, ethyl acetate, and ethyl lactate. Spaepen and his colleagues [18] reported finding caproic (hexanoic) acid, caprylic (octanoic) acid, capric (decanoic) acid, isoamyl acetate, ethyl caproate (hexanoate), ethyl caprylate (octanoate), ethyl caprate (decanoate), and phenethyl acetate. Rossi et al [17] used SPME to characterize the volatiles in different types of beer (lambic was not analysed) and reported that volatile fingerprints could be characterized based on the type of fermentation (top versus bottom) and style.…”
