Scientific Digest


Efficient aroma extraction


ABSTRACT
We want too much from hops, but cannot get everything. If we use pellets or cones for bittering we lose some of the aroma, and as we try to save the aroma we more or less lose the bitter acids. These Japanese researchers propose a system to hop more efficiently. It is a system called PIE (Pre-isomeriser and evaporator) - an extra vessel where the hops are boiled with water. Its first application was to improve bitter utilization, but it can also be used for a more efficient late hop dosing with no detrimental effect on hop aroma!

Brewery news USA, MA: The Boston Beer Company reports third quarter 2014 results
The Boston Beer Company, Inc. reported third quarter 2014 net revenue of $269.7 mln, an increase of $53.3 mln or 25% over the same period last year, mainly due to core shipment growth of 23%, money.cnn.com reported on October, 30.

Net income for the third quarter was $37.9 mln, or $2.79 per diluted share, an increase of $12.2 mln or $0.90 per diluted share from the third quarter of 2013. This increase was primarily due to shipment increases and lower than expected operating costs per barrel during the third quarter due to lower employee benefit costs and the timing of certain advertising promotional and selling expenses.

Earnings per diluted share for the 39-week period ended September 27, 2014 were $5.29, an increase of $1.44 from the comparable 39-week period in 2013. Net revenue for the 39-week period ended September 27, 2014 was $685.2 mln, an increase of $151.5 mln, or 28%, from the comparable 39-week period in 2013.

Depletions grew 21% from the comparable 13-week period in the prior year, primarily due to increases in the Angry Orchard®, Samuel Adams®, and Twisted Tea® brands.

Brewery news Myanmar: Myanmar Economic Holdings wins legal fight for Myanmar Brewery ownership
Myanmar Economic Holdings Ltd., a conglomerate controlled by Myanmar’s military, said on October 31 it has won a legal fight to wrest full control over a brewery from its Singaporean partner, Fraser & Neave Ltd.

An arbitration tribunal ruled that MEHL is entitled to buy Fraser & Neave’s shares in Myanmar Brewery at “fair value” under the terms of their joint-venture agreement, the Yangon-based company said in a statement. MEHL owns 45% of the brewer while the Singapore-listed firm owns the remainder.

The two companies will jointly appoint a valuer to set the price for the acquisition, according to MEHL, which initiated arbitration proceedings in September 2013 after months of fruitless talks with its partner to resolve the spat.

The ruling allows MEHL to claim as its own a prized asset that serves more than 80% of Myanmar’s beer market. It also followed a lengthy corporate dispute that analysts say highlights the risk of doing business with Myanmar’s state-owned enterprises and could damp confidence of investors seeking opportunities in a country still emerging from decades of secrecy and isolation under military rule.

“The conduct of this arbitration shows our commitment to the rule of law and that we will always adhere to due process,” ...More info on site


Brewery news Jamaica: Government welcomes Red Stripe investment in cassava production
The Jamaican government said on October 29 that investment by local beer company Red Stripe in cassava production will provide a boost to the island's economy, Fox News reports.

Finance and Planning Minister Peter Phillips told reporters on October 29 that Red Stripe will invest J$10 million over the next five years to plant and cultivate cassava for the beer-making process, helping ensure "stability in the Jamaican economy."

He said the investment outlay by Red Stripe, the main local beer maker and a unit of multinational Diageo, is a product of the government's economic reforms.

"What we are seeing is the result of our efforts to reduce debt, and inspire confidence in the stability of the Jamaican economy," Phillips said.

The minister, who made a visit on October 28 to the southern coast, where Red Stripe has a plantation, said cassava production is evidence of an agricultural revolution in Jamaica.

In January 2014, Red Stripe signed an agreement with Jamaica's Agriculture Ministry to plant and cultivate up to 2,400 acres of cassava over five years.

The processing plant of Jamaica's most famous beer brand will begin cassava-based beer production in February, when the crops will be ready for harvesting.

Whisky news UK: Diageo delays capacity expansion for Scotch whisky because of declining sales
Diageo has delayed plans to expand production capacity for Scotch whisky after the world’s thirst for the drink started to drop this year, OffLicence News reported on October 30.

Scotch exports dropped 11% in the first half of 2014 as the Scotch Whisky Association blamed “economic headwinds and uncertainty” for hampered growth in several markets.

Diageo, the world’s leading producer, announced in 2012 it would invest more than £1 billion over five years to keep up with rising global demand.

But now that demand is cooling off Diageo, which supplies Johnnie Walker, J&B, Talisker, Bell’s and the David Beckham-fronted Haig Club, has decided to delay expansion plans.

“The weaker global economic environment has impacted the growth of Scotch in certain markets and therefore Diageo will continue to review and adjust the timing of the next phase of our investment programme to manage our Scotch whisky inventory and to retain the alignment between growth in production volumes and growth in demand,” a Diageo spokesman said.
