Alcoholic drink – An Alcoholic beverage is a drink containing
ethanol, commonly known as
alcohol, although in
chemistry the definition of an
alcohol includes many other compounds. Alcoholic drinks, such as
wine,
beer, and
liquor have been part of human culture and development for 9,000 years. Many
brands of alcoholic drinks are produced worldwide. •
List of alcoholic drinks Beer being poured from a
cask Beer is produced by the
saccharification of
starch and
fermentation of the resulting sugar. The starch and saccharification
enzymes are often derived from malted cereal grains, most commonly
malted barley and malted wheat. Most beer is also flavoured with
hops, which
add bitterness and act as a natural
preservative, though other flavourings such as herbs or fruit may occasionally be included. The preparation of beer is called
brewing. •

Distilled drinks – also known as liquor and spirits, a
distilled drink is an alcoholic drink produced by
distillation of a mixture produced from
alcoholic fermentation, such as wine. This process purifies it and removes diluting components like water, for the purpose of increasing its
proportion of alcohol content (commonly known as alcohol by volume,
ABV). As distilled drinks contain more alcohol they are considered "harder" – in North America, the term hard liquor is used to distinguish distilled drinks from undistilled ones, which are implicitly weaker. •

Wine Wine –
wine is an alcoholic drink made from
fermented grapes or other fruits. The natural chemical balance of grapes lets them ferment without the addition of
sugars,
acids,
enzymes, water, or other
nutrients.
Yeast consumes the sugars in the grapes and converts them into
alcohol and
carbon dioxide. Different varieties of grapes and strains of yeasts produce different styles of wine. The well-known variations result from the very complex interactions between the biochemical development of the fruit, reactions involved in fermentation,
terroir and subsequent
appellation, along with human intervention in the overall process. •
