INTRODUCTION
Beer is one of the most popular fermented beverages all over the world. Traditionally brewed with barley and wheat malt, typical beers turns in an unsuitable beverage for
people who suffer from celiac disease, the intolerance of gluten proteins contained in cereals like barley and wheat.
One appropriate alternative to produce gluten-free beers is to replace barley with gluten-free grains such as corn, which has been used to elaborate foodstuffs for celiac patients.
However, the use of 100% corn malt in beer process is a challenge due to the different chemical composition of corn (proteins, sugars) that could impact their sensory
characteristics and the quality of the beer.
Hence, using pigmented varieties of Mexican corn as the main ingredient in brewing allows to develop alternative and innovative styles for individuals with gluten intolerance
and at the same time incorporate traditional flavors of Mexican beverages, without compromising the sensory quality of beer.
