| Course abstract | |
| In the study course students acquire knowledge about beer and spirit production technologies. Gains knowledge about beer and spirit raw materials, their quality parameters. In the laboratory works, practical skills are acquired to determine the quality of malt, beer and spirits. | |
| Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
| At the end of the study course students will get:
•theoretical and practical knowledge of beer and alcohol production raw materials, their quality and production technologies - lectures, laboratory works, 1st and 2nd tests; •skills to analyse and explain the technological stages and quality indicators of malt, beer and alcohol - laboratory works; •acquires competencies to be able to evaluate the supply of grain and other beverages, production technology, its nuances and quality - laboratory work and independent work. |

| Requirements for awarding credit points | |
| Successfully (at least mark 4) written two tests, performed and defended four laboratory works, a presentation developed, submitted electronically in accordance with the requirements and 1 independent work was defended. | |
| Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work | |
| Student independently prepare one independent work on a selected drink, including the following topics: history of the drink, production technology, quality indicators, nutritional value and market analysis. Presentation up to 15 slides, from 5 to 7 minutes, submitted electronically. | |
| Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes | |
| The evaluation of the study course examination depends on the arithmetic average evaluation of the two tests of the study course and the independent work.
A student can obtain a successful mark (at least mark 4) on the test if at least 50% of the test questions have been answered correctly. The student defends the laboratory works, answering questions related to the practical and theoretical basis of the work. The student defends the developed independent work, answering questions related to the practical and theoretical basis of the work. Independent work is evaluated according to the established evaluation scale from excellent to almost satisfactory. |
