HOPS DO NOT NECESSARILY
NEED TO TOUCH BEER FOR
DRY HOPPING PURPOSES
ABSTRACT
A German research team that came up with the idea of
extracting hop aroma into beer by applying a combined
desorption/absorption process. The process-dependent
mass transfer was predicted using two different
approaches: a thermodynamic approach, and response
surface modelling. The methods offer the following
advantages: no beer losses, no clarification steps
needed, potential reuse of hops for bittering. Using
response surface methodology was clearly superior
as compared to calculating the mass transfer using
thermodynamic approximations.

Transferring Hop Volatiles into Beer, poster presentation at the Trends in Brewing Conference,

USA: Malting barley landscape changing across the US
|
The malting barley landscape is changing across the U.S., according to Rich Horsley, North Dakota State University barley breeder, Farm and Ranch Guide reported on September 9.
If visitors crossed North Dakota a few years ago, they would see mostly six-rowed malting barley growing lush in the eastern half of North Dakota, while the two-row varieties were grown mostly in the far western regions. Even in western regions, producers grew six-rowed barley.
“Why have we predominately grown six-row barley in North Dakota? Because it has three times the number of kernels as two-row barley, higher yield potential, better leaf resistance and much stronger straw,” Horsley told producers at Dickinson (held at a Belfield farm that grows malting barley) and Williston field days.
Another major reason for growing six-row barley is it was the variety contracted by the larger beer companies.
“The other reason for growing six-row is it made the kind of beer you were drinking. Most of your favorite beers were made from six-row barley,” Horsley said.
And producers are aware that growing malting barley without a contract doesn’t work.
Almost 90 percent of the barley grown in the state is contracted – there is very little open market.
“It is pretty risky if you do

Canada: Brick Brewing almost triples Q2 profits
|
Canada’s Brick Brewing almost tripled its second quarter profits as net sales increased 27 per cent, Waterloo Record reported on September 9.
The Kitchener, Ontario-based brewer said it earned net income of C$1.6 million in the three months ended July 31, up from C$580,000 in the second quarter a year ago.
Net sales increased to C$14 million from C$11 million.
The company said volume of its Laker brand increased 14 per cent compared to the second quarter a year ago, while volume of its Waterloo brand increased 20 per cent.
Laker accounted for 69 per cent of Brick's branded volumes in the second quarter, while Waterloo accounted for 11.2 per cent.
Brick said the launch of LandShark beer in The Beer Store has been "an unprecedented success" and as a result late in the second quarter it expanded distribution to LCBO and grocery stores.
Brick also produces beer under the Red Baron, Red Cap and Formosa brands, Seagram and Margaritaville coolers, President's Choice beer under a packaging agreement with Loblaws, and Mott's Ceasar under a contract with Canada Dry Mott's.

USA, ID: Mother Earth Brew Co. to open in Nampa by October 1
|
There’s a new craft brewery in Nampa, and it could end up being the largest in Idaho, The Washington Times reported on September 6.
San Diego, California-based Mother Earth Brew Co. will open its tasting room doors for business by Oct. 1, possibly as early as Sept. 24. It is now one of two commercial producers of beer in Nampa.
“When it came to think about where to expand from California, it was an easy choice,” Daniel Love, founder and CEO of Mother Earth Brew Co., told the Idaho Press-Tribune.
On the afternoon of Aug. 31, Mother Earth’s warehouse facility was warm and filled with the loud hum of machinery. He said he may buy from salesman such as that eventually to expand the bottling line.
The CEO and founder of Mother Earth Brewing Co. intends to build out his craft-beer-making facility so that it will produce 60,000 barrels annually - topping the reported capacity of Idaho’s largest brewer, Payette Brewing, of 40,000 barrels - though not at first. The company needs the distribution to match that.
Love led a tour around his brewing equipment, obviously practiced in explaining the process that turns four basic ingredients into the foamy, cool drink that millions love.

USA, PA: Benny Brewing Company eyeing late October opening
|
Ben Schonfeld started making beer at home 14 years ago and has since become a brewmaster who is close to opening his own company and restaurant, Citizens Voice reported on September 8.
Schonfeld, 36, of Nanticoke, expects to open Benny Brewing Company in late October at 1429 Sans Souci Parkway in Hanover Township.
Seman Tire was demolished to make way for the 6,000-square-foot Benny Brewing Company, which will include a 10-barrel brewing system that can be viewed from a restaurant and brew pub. It will also include an outdoor patio with tables from Munich, Germany, and a beer garden with hops and vines.
“I went from brewing beer commercially on a half-barrel brewing system to moving up to a 10-barrel brewing system,” Schonfeld said, while showing four 20-barrel conical fermenters and two 10-barrel fermenters that he purchased from Alpha Brewing in Nebraska.
Schonfeld declined to say how much money was invested in the new business.
He is currently distributing beer to 45 restaurants and bars throughout Luzerne and Lackawanna counties.
Within the next two months, his beer also will be available in Northampton, Lehigh, Berks and Lancaster counties.
People could come into the brewery and buy beer by sixtel kegs — which hold just over five gallons,

World: Heineken makes developing in-house craft beer brands a priority
|
Heineken has made developing in-house craft beer brands a priority over acquiring smaller players.
Speaking at the Barclays Global Consumer Staples Conference earlier this week, Heineken's management said the company is looking to play a larger role in the craft segment. In a note following the conference, Barclays analyst Simon Hales said the brewer "highlighted the internal development of craft line extensions on existing brands, rather than necessarily via acquisitions of "expensive" craft beer businesses".
In March, the company unveiled H41 - a lager under the Heineken brand with a focus on yeast. At the time of the launch, Heineken said the yeast, from Patagonia, gives the 5.3% abv H41 a "full-bodied" spicy flavour while retaining Heineken lager's fruit notes.
The launch came six months after the group bought a 50% stake in Californian craft brewer Lagunitas Brewing Co.
According to Barclays, Heineken is the number one or two beer player in 79 of the 89 markets where it has significant operations.
Heineken told analysts the company also sees opportunities in cider and the low/no alcohol category. Last month, the company launched a 3.3% abv beer in Australia.

Australia: Carlton & United Breweries will likely approach craft beer differently under the ownership of AB InBev
|
Carlton & United Breweries will likely approach craft beer differently under the ownership of Anheuser-Busch InBev, if the brewing giant’s overseas track record is anything to go by, Australian Brews News reported on September 9.
AB InBev takes control of CUB on October 10. CUB marketing director Richard Oppy told Australian Brews News the companies are at arm’s length in the meantime.
“We’ve been very strict with correspondence with Anheuser-Busch InBev. They’re definitely a competitor of ours right up until change of control. We can’t share any confidential information,” he said.
Oppy said discussion of future strategies and new product development is certainly off limits, so he does not yet have any direct sense of how AB InBev plans to approach craft beer in this market.
“In terms of the craft range and whether that will change or not – from what I’ve read and understand of ABI, they’ve been very active in this space in the US, in particular,” he said.
“I think there’s a lot of learnings that they’ll bring to the Australian marketplace. Without having spoken to them directly about it… I think they’ll be more active in this space.”
Since March 2011, AB InBev has acquired eight craft breweries in the US.

Jamaica: Prime Minister welcomes Red Stripe resuming exports of locally brewed beer to the US
|
Jamaica’s Prime Minister Andrew Holness was on hand on September 7 to see Red Stripe sending off its first shipment of locally brewed beer to the United States from Jamaica in four years, Caribbean News Now reported.
At a ceremony at Red Stripe’s Spanish Town Road location, Holness hailed the move by the iconic Jamaican brand to re-establish Jamaica as its global production hub.
He said this is a reflection of the company’s commitment to protect the authenticity of the brand by having it produced locally as well as of the confidence in the country’s improving macroeconomic environment.
Describing the repatriation move as a good business decision, the prime minister said the government appreciates the company’s improvements in efficiencies through the upgrade of its plant as well as increases in its workforce.
“That is a big thing and the government of Jamaica expresses its gratitude for that investment decision. It is that decision that has made it possible for your output to increase, employment to increase and, indeed, the growth of the company, which will translate into the growth of the Jamaican economy,” he said.
With the reinstatement of exports to the United States, Red Stripe has hired an additional 50 employees and will take
