Malt beer is a sweet, low-alcohol beer (0%–2.5% ABV〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Malzbier )〕) that is brewed like regular beer but with low or minimal fermentation. To keep the alcohol content low, one of two methods may be used: either the yeast is added at about 0 °C (resulting in an alcohol content of under 0.5% ABV) or fermentation is halted at the desired alcohol content (usually in the range of 1 to 2% ABV). It is made from barley malt syrup, sugar, yeast, hops, and water.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Wheat and Rye Malt Use in Brewing Beer )〕 Malt beer is considered to be nutritious and is sometimes given to nursing mothers.〔(Description of malt beer )〕 Malt beer is sometimes called "malta" or "wheat soda", but that term is properly reserved for the non-alcoholic but similarly tasting soft drink. Several brands popularly referred to as ''Malzbier'' in Germany, Austria and Switzerland are actually types of Malta. The same is true for such Danish brands as Tuborg Supermalt and Powermalt. In the United Kingdom, Danish malt drinks have become popular amongst the South Asian community and have been sold in their dedicated supermarkets since the 1970s. After soft drinks, malt beer is one of the most popular beverages sold in Iceland. The two main brands are Egils Maltextrakt (1.2% ABV) and Víking Maltöl (0.9% ABV). Additionally, a seasonal hvítöl is available in the Christmas month (2.2% ABV). The Icelandic malt beer was modelled on the Danish maltøl, which is still brewed by at least one company in Denmark.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=maltøl )〕 Nesher Malt, a non-alcoholic beer, is made in Israel. Varieties of malt beer are also popular in Latin and Caribbean countries. West African brands include Guinness Malt, Amstel Malt, Maltex, and Malteni. These are sold as energy drinks. ==See also== *Malt *Malta (soft drink) *Malt beverage *Tempo Beer Industries 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Malt beer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
