Aug 13, 2011 at 4:44 comment added Rincewind42 The majority of the sugar in a malt beer is maltose, but glucose, sucrose, maltriose, and un-fermentable dextrins are also created. Sugar may also be added at the bottling stage to sweeten a dry beer. This may be of any type including corn based sugars.
Aug 12, 2011 at 8:20 comment added rumtscho Hm, I already knew that much. I wanted to know which sugars are responsible (maltose? then why does it taste like corn?), and why is the sweetness of alcohol-free beer different from the sweetness of malt-rich beers like abovementioned Kasteel?
