Scientific Digest
About hydrphobic interactions
ABSTRACT
Numerous components from hops are hydrophobic and flavour active and a lot of brewers would like to better understand the interaction of these components with the yeast cells. These Japanese researchers looked into the yeast cell surface hydrophobicity and the interaction with different hop components. They were able to prove that the content of myrcene, humulene, farnesene and cohumulone increases
in the extracts of yeast cells and therefor decreases in the beer. The concentrations of linalool and isohumulones were not affected. Therefore the cell surface hydrophobicity as well as the flocculation properties influence the itensity and quality of hop aroma and hop derived bitterness.

USA, OR: Widmer Brothers Brewing to launch four new limited edition beers
|
Widmer Brothers Brewing has introduced four new limited release beers as part of the brewery’s fall lineup, Brew Bound reported on September 26.
Just in time for the cooler fall months ahead, the Portland-based brewery has released: Falconer’s IPA, the latest addition to the Rotator IPA Series; this year’s vintage of Old Embalmer Barleywine and a pinot noir barrel-aged version of Old Embalmer as part of the Brother’s Reserve Series; and Downward Spiral, an imperial India-style Pale Lager (IPL) aged on new oak spirals.
The release of Falconer’s IPA represents the third time this beer has been available as part of the Rotator IPA Series. Falconer’s IPA is an aggressively hopped Northwest IPA. Widmer Brothers has brewed the beer annually since 2011 and it has become a favourite in the series, but this release will be the last as the Falconer’s Flight hop is being retired after this year.
Old Embalmer Barleywine has been a brewery favourite since it was first brewed in 1999. This year’s version of the beer features a yet-to-be-named experimental hop variety. In conjunction with the annual barleywine release, Widmer Brothers has released Barrel-Aged Old Embalmer ’13, a version aged in pinot noir barrels from Patricia Green Cellars in

UK: Barley imports almost equal to exports in July 2013

UK barley imports were 10.2 thousand tonnes in July 2013, down from 12.1 thousand tonnes in June 2013 but the highest level of imports for the month of July since July 2009, HMR&C reported on September 17.
Exports reached 10.5 thousand tonnes in July 2013, an increase on the 7.2 thousand tonnes imported in the previous month but the lowest level of exports for the month of July based on records dating back to July 1992, as poor weather before harvest and concerns over harvest timing prevented early sales.

South Africa: Ban on alcohol advertising may not cause serious damage to South African Breweries business
|
South African Breweries’ (SAB’s) dominant position in the South African beer market might, over time, give it an advantage if the government went ahead with a ban on alcohol advertising, but SABMiller chief executive Alan Clark said it was hard to predict exactly what would happen, Business Features reported on September 25.
“If there’s an advertising ban, and the market goes dark, in theory the established players do better,” Clark said.
But he added that there was not sufficient experience of alcohol markets “going dark” to be confident of knowing what would happen. He said that it was difficult to draw any conclusions from what happened to cigarette sales after the ban on cigarette advertising because of the addictive nature of cigarettes.
Clark said he felt that the ANC’s attention had shifted to the upcoming elections and the advertising ban was not currently a priority for the ruling party. “It’s impossible to predict whether or not it [the interest in a ban] will revive.”
The only countries where there is a ban on alcohol advertising are India, Russia and Turkey.
In Russia and Turkey alcohol consumption has dropped, but it is unclear whether this is attributable to the advertising ban or to other adverse developments

Australia & China: Emerald Grain ships first batch of Westminster barley to China maltsters
|
Australia’s Emerald Grain has made its first bulk shipment of Westminster barley, Weekly Times Now reported on September 26.
The company loaded 22,000 tonnes of the variety last week on to the Star Planet bound for China.
According to Melbourne Port Terminal manager Murray Wilkinson, the Westminster variety was part of a 54,000-tonne shipment of barley to a large Chinese maltster.
The shipment also included Gairdner and "fair average quality" barley - the latter a mix of lower quality grades which only just germinated in the malting process.
Westminster was developed in the UK and brought into Australia in 2006 through PGG Wrightson's link with French breeding company Limagrain.
It has gradually replaced gairdner as the major malting variety in the Western District, accounting for about 70 per cent of barley plantings this season.
Emerald Grain's commodity and trading manager Christian Norgard said Westminster was developed as a distilling variety for making whisky due to its high diastatic power.
The diastatic power is the enzymatic power in the malt needed to break down starches into fermentable product.
Mr Norgard said Australian brewers preferred malt with lower diastatic power.
Chinese brewers had low levels of malt in their brews and preferred ingredients with high diastatic power.
Emerald Grain has been segregating

South Africa: SABMiller’s workers may go on strike next week
|
Workers at brewery SABMiller PLC may go on strike in South Africa on September 30 if a last minute meeting between the union and company fails to resolve a dispute over wage increases, a union official was quoted as saying by The Wall Street Journal on September 27.
"On Monday we may begin a strike...if nothing miraculous comes out of the meeting today," said Katishi Masemola, general secretary of the Food and Allied Workers Union.
Mr. Masemola said the union issued a 48-hour strike notice to SABMiller on September 26 after months of talks over wage increases and renumeration packages failed to reach a consensus. He said around 2,000 SABMiller employees could strike in areas from distribution to manufacturing.
South Africa's sluggish economic growth is being threatened by a series of strikes across sectors including mining and auto manufacturing in recent months. On September 27, workers at world's largest platinum producer Anglo American Platinum Ltd. downed tools to protest a plan by the company to layoff 3,300 workers as part of a restructuring.

Sierra Leone: Sierra Leone Brewery installs water treatment plant in Freetown
|
Sierra Leone Brewery Ltd. opened a 2.4 billion leones ($561,000) water treatment plant in Freetown, the capital of the West African country, Bloomberg reported on September 26.
The facility processes about 50 cubic meters of water per hour, Allieu Kafoe, technical project manager for the brewer said. Heineken NV has a majority stake in the brewer, according to its website.
About 40 percent of people in rural Sierra Leone and 84 percent of those in urban areas have access to piped water, public taps or other forms of improved water sources, according to World Bank data for 2011.
The African Development Bank is providing loans and grants to fund a $61 million water supply project in the country, where a cholera outbreak last year killed more than 250 people and sickened more than 18,000.
