A method for producing a beer-taste beverage, characterized in that the method includes adding a hop bract-containing composition having an ±-acid content of less than 1% by weight of the composition in the step of producing a beer-taste beverage. According to the present invention, by the use of the hop bracts, it is possible to realize a balance between the bitterness, aroma derived from hops, and taste that cannot be achieved by a conventional production method. By appropriately adjusting the timing of adding hop bracts, beer-taste beverages having preferred features and strength of the aroma and controlled taste can be provided.本發明係提供一種啤酒口味飲料之製造方法,其特徵係於啤酒口味飲料之製造步驟中添加α酸含量未達組成物中之1重量%之含啤酒花苞片組成物。根據本發明,藉由使用啤酒花苞片,可實現利用一般的製造法所無法達成之可享受苦味物質、來自啤酒花之香氣之平衡。藉由適當地調整添加啤酒花苞片之時機,可提供控制了令人喜愛的香氣特徵、強度與風味之啤酒口味飲料。
