The methods involve mashing barley kernels comprising at least Il ---- 10% 13-glucans and having a ratio of DP3/DP4 in said 13-glucan of at least 3 in the presence of a-amylase and endo-1,3(4)-13-glucanase , I t---- activity. The beverages have a viscosity providing a good mouth-feel, and at the same time they comprise 13-glucans, which are able to © aid in lowering LDL cholesterol levels. The beverages are generally stable and can be stored for months at room temperature without el a significant decrease in 13-glucan content. O
