ethanol O-acyltransferase/esterase gene and use thereof, in particular, a brewery yeast for producing alcoholic beverages with superior flavor, alcoholic beverages produced with said yeast, and a method for producing said beverages. More particularly, the present invention relates to a yeast, whose capability of producing ester, which contribute to aroma and flavor of products, is controlled by regulating expression level of EHT1 gene encoding a protein (Eht1p) that is an acyl-CoA: ethanol O-acyltransferase/esterase in a brewery yeast, especially the nonScEHT1 gene specific to a lager brewing yeast, and to a method for producing alcoholic beverages with said yeast.
