During the brewing process, grain starch fermentation produces carbonation and ethanol in the resulting beer. Forced carbonation is used in commercial brewing to replaces the natural carbonation effect. 


Beers are usually flavoured by the addition of hops to add bitterness and to balance the sweetness of the malt. Hops also act as a preservative and stabilizing agent. Apart from hops, some brews use fruits, herbs, and spices to create unique-tasting beers. The alcohol content of beer ranges from around 4% to 6% alcohol by volume (ABV) depending on the beer type and recipe, though sometimes it may vary between 0.5% and 20%, with some rare case going up to 40% ABV.
