Evaluación del perfil fisicoquímico y organoléptico de una cerveza con adición de Cannabis sativa no psicoactivo (Cannabis sativa L).

The present study, entitled Evaluation of the physicochemical and organoleptic profile of a beer with the addition of non-psychoactive Cannabis sativa (Cannabis sativa L), aimed to investigate the effect of Cannabis sativa oil at various concentrations on beer quality. Three concentrations of non-psychoactive Cannabis sativa oil were used: 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.3%, in accordance with regulation ARCSA-DE-002-2021-MAFG, which stipulates a maximum limit of 0.3% THC in the final product. With this, four treatments were established, including a control without oil, all with three replicates, resulting in a total of 12 samples. These were subjected to physicochemical analysis to measure parameters such as pH, density, acidity and alcohol content (GL°). In addition, a sensory evaluation was carried out through a hedonic survey, in which characteristics such as appearance, body, color, flavor, aroma, bitterness and general acceptability were assessed. The treatment with the best preference in the sensory evaluation was chosen for a microbiological analysis, focused on the search for molds and yeasts. The findings made it possible to identify how the incorporation of non-psychoactive Cannabis sativa oil affects both the physicochemical properties and the sensory perception of beer, providing significant data for the creation of innovative products within the current legal framework.
