The present invention relates to a gene encoding a protein having a vicinal diketone or diacetyl-reducing activity 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 vicinal diketones, especially diacetyl, that are responsible for off-flavors in products, is reduced by amplifying expression level of MMF1 gene encoding a protein (Mmflp) having a vicinal diketone or diacetyl-reducing activity, especially the non-ScMMF1 gene or ScMMF1 gene specific to a lager brewing yeast, and to a method for producing alcoholic beverages with said yeast.
