Very recently, a cysteine-S-conjugate [S-3-(hexan-1-ol)-cysteine] has been identified by HPLC/MS/MS in the Cascade variety [4]. Other cysteine adducts have been evidenced in Saaz, Nelson Sauvin and Tomahawk hops by enzymatic release assays [5]. Both methods were here applied on new "dual" hop varieties including Citra, Amarillo, Mosaïc and Hallertau Blanc. Terpenols and free polyfunctional thiols were also quantified in these four selected "dual" cultivars. Their aromatic profiles were further compared to those previously obtained for Tomahawk, Nelson Sauvin (both "dual"), Cascade and Saaz. Yeasts-impact on the derived-beers. Stability through ageing "Dual" Hops Beer productions were carried out in our 50 L microbrewery (CoEnCo, Belgium).Four beers were obtained by late hopping (Citra (CIT) or Amarillo (AMA)) and top fermentation (yeasts INBR Bras 214 (X) or INBR Bras 212 (Y)). Thiols were analysed by GC-PFPD in fresh (Figure 6) and aged beers (Figure 7). Free thiols and terpenols in "dual" hops 3SHA Thiol specific extraction using an organomercuric compound (pHMB) [1] coupled to the sulfur-specificdetection (GC-PFPD) allowed us to quantifyvarious thiols (Figure 1). Terpenolswerequantified by GC-MS afterflavor extraction by the Likens Nickerson method (Figure 2). 362 867 CIT-X CIT-Y a) b) Figure 6. GC-PFPD chromatograms of fresh beers. Figure 7. Concentrations of 2SEA (a) and 3SPrA (b) through ageing of CIT-X and CIT-Y. As depicted in Figure 6, yeast X leads to much more thiols than yeast Y for the same hopping procedure. Therefore, the concentration of 2SE-A was very high in CIT-X fresh beer (22.8 µg/L), but dropped until 7.25 µg/L after 6 months due to oxidation. In contrast, small amounts of 2SE-A were found in fresh CITR-Y (1.1 µg/L). This level revealed to increase very fast to reach 11.8 µg/L after only 1 month. Chemical hydrolysis of cysteine adducts most probably occurred in that case in the bottle. c) d) Synthesis of cysteine-S-conjugates S-3-(3-methyl-butan-1-ol)-cysteine (Cys-3S3MBol, felinine, Figure 8a) wasboughtfromImmunosource (Belgium). Threecommerciallyunavailablecysteine-S-conjugates have been synthesized. S-3-(hexan-1-ol)-cysteine (Cys-3SHol) (Figure 8b) wasobtainedaccording to the proceduredescribed by Thibon et al., (2008) [7]. S-(3-methyl-2-buten-1-yl)-cysteine (Cys-MBT) (Figure 8c) wassynthesizedaccording to the method of Adsara et al., (1981) [8]. S-2-(ethylacetate)-cysteine (CYS-2SEA) washereobtained for the first time, by acetylation of S-2-(ethan-1-ol)-cysteine (Figure 8d). Figure 9 shows mass spectra of Cys-3S3MBol, Cys-3SHol, Cys-MBT and Cys-2SEA. Citrus/floral-like Figure 1. Amounts of free thiols in eight hop cultivars. Figure 2. Amounts of 3 free terpenols in eight hop cultivars (concentrations in mg/kg). All "dual" hops contained citrus/grapefruit-like thiols.

Although not referred as "dual" (only 4,5 – 8 % α-acids), the Cascade hop contained high amounts of the citrus-like 3SHol and 3SHptol. Only the "dual" hop cultivars revealed to be exceptional sources of citrus-like terpenols : β-citronellol in Citra and Hallertau Blanc, β-citronellol and geraniol in Mosaic, geraniol and linalool in Tomahawk, and linalool in Nelson Sauvin and Amarillo.

This S-cysteine conjugate was here also identified in the "dual" Amarillo hop (Figure 4) which contained, however, very few free 3SHol. As previously shown by Gros et al., (2013) [5], this confirms that the polyfunctional thiol potential of a cultivar can not be directly deduced from the amount of free thiols. The β-lyase activity of apotryptophanase revealed able to release 8 odorant polyfunctional thiols from our "dual" hop extracts. 3SHol and 3SNol were released from all hops here investigated. The S-conjugate of 3S4MPol was only detected in Hallertau Blanc (free 3S4MPol was also in higher concentration in this cultivar). Conclusions "Dual" hops are characterized by high contents of both terpenols (+ glucosides) and polyfuntional thiols (+ cysteine adducts). By synergy, they will impart a typical citrus aroma to the derived beers. Free thiols are very instable through beer ageing. Fortunately, part of them can be regenerated from cysteine-S-conjugates. Terpenols offer the great advantage to be much more stable through beer ageing. Dry hopping and refermentation procedures can take advantage of the exceptional thiol and terpenol profile of "dual" hops (good choice of yeast strain, optimized contact time and temperature,…).
