Scientific Digest


LOOKING FOR THE WHOLE RANGE OF BITTER ACIDS?

ABSTRACT
The common bitter acids in beer are usually analysed using different HPLC industry methods. In case you are in the possession of an underused LC-Q-ToF-MS why not try a HRMS (High Resolution Mass Spectometry) method? HRMS is a promising technique that enables outstanding performance in substance identification. With this method the similtanious quantification of 33 bitter acids (from the different iso-alpha acids to humulinones and xanthohumol, etc.) is possible with an easy sample preparation and a short analysis run time. Interested?

Brewery news UK: Beer in cans now makes up a quarter of craft beers sold in off licences and multiple grocers
Gone are the days of stigma around ‘tinnies,’ as a quarter of the UK’s craft beer is now sold in cans, according to new figures, The Drinks Business reported on November 17.

The latest figures from consumer research firm Nielsen show that cans now make up a quarter of craft beers sold in the UK in off licenses and multiple grocers, increasing by 327% from January – August in 2017.

Part of this rise in popularity can be attributed to consumers’ changing attitudes, according to Nielsen.

Consumers, particularly millennials, are increasingly looking for lightweight packaging that with standout designs which is easily recyclable.

Metal is a permanently available material that can be recycled again and again, without losing any of its structural integrity.

Martin Constable, chairman of industry trade body Can Makers, said the canned craft beer market’s growth has “exceeded expectations and has paved the way for other craft drinks’ makers to enter the market.”

He added that the trend is not exclusive to craft beer, and many drinks makers worldwide are choosing to store wine and pre-made cocktails in aluminium cans over glass bottles.

“Craft brewers have understood that choosing the can is the best packaging option for retaining the product’s quality and authenticity,” he ...More info on site


Brewery news UK & India: Diageo sues Vijay Mallya to recover $40 mln payment
Weeks before a London extradition hearing, Indian tycoon Vijay Mallya faces a second legal battle after Diageo Plc sued to recover a $40 million payment made when he was ousted from United Spirits Ltd. last year, Bloomberg reported on November 17.

Diageo filed the suit in London on November 14 after setting out the grievances in its annual report in August. The drinks giant claims Mallya breached a $75 million agreement, of which it had already paid out $40 million, made when he stepped down as chairman of United Spirits in February 2016. It’s also seeking about $141 million over questionable payments made by companies affiliated with Mallya. His son, Sidhartha, is also named in the suit.

Diageo has amassed a 55 percent stake in United Spirits since it first purchased a share of the Indian whiskey producer in 2013. It battled for months to oust Mallya as chairman after an internal inquiry alleged he’d diverted funds to other companies under his control. Last year, the British distiller agreed to pay Mallya $75 million over five years to leave the company and not compete or interfere with it for five years. As part of the arrangement, Diageo also said it would release ...More info on site


Brewery news India: SEBI orders attachment of United Breweries (Holdings) bank accounts
Markets regulator SEBI has ordered the attachment of bank accounts as well as share and mutual fund holdings of defaulter businessman Vijay Mallya-led United Breweries (Holdings) Ltd to recover dues totalling Rs. 18.5 lakh, the Hindu Business Line reported on November 16.

The decision was taken after UBHL failed to pay the fine imposed on it. In 2015, SEBI had levied a fine of Rs. 15 lakh on the company for disclosure lapses regarding creation and invocation of certain pledge transactions in shares of United Spirits.

The pending dues - totalling Rs. 18.5 lakh - include the initial fine of Rs. 15 lakh and interest of Rs. 3.5 lakh and a recovery cost of Rs. 1,000.

In an attachment notice dated November 13, SEBI asked banks, depositories and mutual funds not to allow any debit from the accounts of UBHL. However, credits have been permitted.

Further, SEBI has directed the banks to attach all accounts, including lockers, held by the defaulter.

“There is sufficient reason to believe that the defaulter may dispose of the amounts in the bank accounts and securities in the demat accounts held with your bank, depository, mutual fund, and realisation of amount due under the certificate would in consequence be delayed ...More info on site


Brewery news Zimbabwe: Delta Corporation to remodel sorghum beer factories
Beverages maker Delta Corporation will remodel its sorghum beer factories to enhance production of the new 1.5 litre pack, as it moves to boost both volume and revenue contribution for the segment. The 1.5 litre pack, which is expected to flood the market by year end, is replacing the 2 litre pack, also known as a scud. Management at Delta says the new 1.5 litre is expected to drive volumes for the sorghum beer segment, which experienced a volumes contraction in the half year to September 30, 2017, The Herald reported on November 16.

“The 1.5 litre is doing very well; it is only capacity that is still a challenge,” said Delta chief executive officer Pearson Gowero in an interview on the sidelines of the group’s financial results presentation.

“We now have to re-kit all our factories to produce the pack (1.5 litre) from the 2 litre, but due to the hard currency delays, there is a bit of a delay. We think before the end of this year it will be everywhere,” said Gowero.

This comes as the sorghum beer volumes fell 4 percent in the period to September 30, 2017 to 1 826 million hectolitres compared to 1 903 million ...More info on site


Brewery news India: United Spirits claims recovery of Rs1,800 crore from United Breweries
In an arbitration case fought between Diageo PLC owned United Spirits (USL) and United Breweries Holdings (UBHL), the former had claimed a recovery of around Rs 1,800 crore including interest from Vijay Mallya’s holding company after it defaulted between 2010 and 2013, two people with direct knowledge of the development said.

The ongoing arbitration in Bengaluru, which was to be concluded in few months, has now been extended by six months. The two companies went for arbitration as loan agreement said a default of the loan can be settled through an arbitration. USL has loaned around Rs 1,350 crore to various companies of Mallya which was primarily used to fund the defunct Kingfisher Airline.

USL, which sells Diageo’s brands such as Black Dog and Smirnoff in India, had loaned to various UB group companies and all these loans had been consolidated under UB Holdings which has been acknowledged by the holding company.

Mallya is the chairman and chief executive of UBHL.

USL declined to comment, while Mallya, the chairman and chief executive of UBHL, did not respond to a mailed questionnaire.


Brewery news Brazil: Heineken, Coca-Cola to begin Brazil arbitration in February - report
Heineken NV and Brazilian distributors for Coca-Cola Co will begin arbitration in February regarding a distribution contract that the Dutch brewer decided to end this year, according to a November 17th’s report by newspaper Valor Economico.

Heineken broke off the contract after acquiring the Brazilian operations of Japan’s Kirin Holdings Co Ltd for 1.025 billion euros ($1.21 billion), bolstering its own distribution network in the country.

According to another report by newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo, Heineken suggested the Coke distributors keep their contract for two beer brands, Bavaria and Kaiser, until 2022, but an association of distributors rejected the proposal.

A press representative for Heineken did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A representative for the Coke distributors declined to comment immediately on the matter, citing the confidentiality of the ongoing dispute.


Brewery news Kenya: Heineken launches Amstel in Kenya
Global beverage giant Heineken has introduced a smooth-crispy beer into the Kenyan market, seeking to tap into the changing consumer taste, the Daily Nation reported on November 16.

The Dutch Brewer on November 15 launched the Amstel, its third alcoholic product in the Kenyan market since it started its operation in the country in 2011.

Amstel, with an alcoholic content of 5 per cent, will be available in 330ml bottle and 500 ml can, retailing at select outlets across the country at Sh160 and Sh180 respectively.

“The decision to introduce Amstel into the Kenyan market is informed by our research that shows our target consumer enjoys a classier lifestyle in their everyday pursuit of attainable luxuries.

“This provided a great opportunity for us to expand our portfolio of products, thus we brought in Amstel to meet this demand,” said Heineken East Africa general manager Uche Unigwe.

Mr Unigwe has been Heineken’s general manager for the last three years. He took over from Koen Morchuis who helped the company to set up its Nairobi headquarters in 2012.

“We want consumers to question their relationship with their current domestic beer and we are confident they will ‘succumb to the aaah taste’ once they’ve experienced Amstel,” he added.



Brewery news Turkey: High alcohol prices and heavy taxes driving many to home-brew
Carefully testing the temperature of a bucket of fermenting beer, Onder Ceyhan pushes back the foam to add a touch of yeast to his latest batch of home-brewed drink.

Ceyhan says he, like many others in Turkey, has been driven to brewing his own beer by the high price of commercially produced alcoholic drinks and the hefty taxes imposed by Turkey’s ruling Islamist-rooted AK Party, Reuters reported on November 17.

“I might never have started this if beer wasn’t so expensive,” the 25-year old university student said.

Under President Tayyip Erdogan, a pious Muslim known for his dislike of alcohol, taxes on booze have increased steadily and now account for two thirds of the cost of some alcoholic drinks.

From early 2003, when Erdogan came to power, to October 2017, prices of raki - a traditional aniseed-flavored spirit - have jumped by 665 percent and beer prices by 580 percent, according to data from the Turkish Statistics Institute (TUIK).

“What surprised me when I got into this was the cost. If I can make it this cheaply, it’s strange that commercial beers are so expensive,” said Ceyhan.

He makes beer from an online kit, while others brew cider, lagers and wine. Some also dilute shop-bought ethanol ...More info on site
