Disclosed is a method of producing a fermentation product using a natural protein concentrate in place of the protein derived from malted grains. The natural protein concentrate can be directly used, in addition with a carbohydrate source, to produce a wort suitable for fermentation, thus avoiding the malting and mash mixing steps in traditional brewing methods. The wort requires less yeast to initiate the fermentation process than in similar alcohol fermentations, and does not require the addition of yeast nutrients. The resulting fermentation product can be processed for bottling without the need for an intervening storage period. Conveniently, the natural protein concentrate can be derived from non-cereal sources such as peas, soy, rice potatoes and the like. Furthermore, using non-cereals sources permits the simplified production of a gluten-free fermentation product that can be used in preparing beverages consumable by persons suffering from gluten-intolerance.
