The HomeBrew machine can ferment beer in five flavors -- India Pale Ale, Pale Ale, Stout, Wheat and Pilsner.
LG introduced the machine as the world’s first fully-automated capsule-type beer brewer.
“The company is grateful to the government for removing the ban,” said Song Dae-hyun, president of home appliances unit at LG. “We will make efforts to help raise competitiveness in the growing home-made beer industry.”
