Scientific Digest
THE HOP FLAVONOID POTENTIAL FOR DRY HOPPED BEERS
ABSTRACT
In recent years, several positive physiological and
pharmacological properties have been reported for
the xanthohumol and other prenylflavonoids from
hops, such as xanthohumol, isoxanthohumol, 6- and
8-prenynaringenin. This German research team has
developed an HPLC-MS/MS method for identifying and
quantifying nine hop flavonoids. They found that the
concentration of these compounds in beer is variety
dependent. Some of the flavenoids have very low flavour
thresholds and in combination it is possible that they
contribute to the bitter taste in dry hopped beer.

Vietnam: Vietnamese consumers spending heavily on beer and snacks
|
Vietnamese consumers have great demand for snacks and beer, according to a newly-released report by the global marketing research firm Nielsen.
The “What’s Next in Emerging Markets” report provides compelling evidence that Brazil, Vietnam, Argentina, Ghana, and Ivory Coast consumers are increasingly willing to spend on snack and beer products. The document combines Nielsen data on snacks and beer with macro-economic indicators and forecasts to identify these growth markets.
“Beer and snacks aren’t just fun. They are lead indicators of continued buying preference outside of essentials. Beyond that, the countries highlighted have macro-economic conditions that suggest a favorable environment for growth,” said Regan Leggett, executive director of thought leadership and foresight at Nielsen.
Nielsen says Vietnam is currently experiencing one of its fastest economic expansions in years. It also boasts one of the fastest-growing fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industries in Asia at 5.9% in the year to date.
Even more promising, only a few categories are decelerating. Snack is leading the pack in growth, followed by beer and healthy food drinks. Energy drinks and feminine care follow closely behind.
Opportunities abound in emerging markets to capitalize on global beer trends, such as premium, craft, ciders and flavored brews, because historically beer category sales in emerging

Vietnam: Sabeco rebuffs state audit’s allegations of management and investing activities violations
|
Saigon Beer, Alcohol and Beverage Corporation (Sabeco) refuted the state audit’s allegations about its violations in the management of its operations and investing activities before it sold a stake for the foreign partner, while simultaneously affirming that its operation complies with regulations, according to newswire Vnexpress.
Recently, the State Audit Office proposed collecting VND2.5 trillion ($109.8 million) in tax arrears from Sabeco. The lion’s share of this is undeclared profit of VND2.8 trillion ($123.01 million) from 2016.
Besides, the state audit asked Sabeco to explain its losses from investing in banking, stocks, as well as pouring money into financial investment funds.
Sabeco has issued a document explaining the state audit’s allegations, especially the more than VND2.8 trillion ($122.99 million) in profit after which it had not declared tax.
Sabeco expects to earn VND39.3 trillion ($1.73 billion) in revenue in 2018, with net profit of VND4.9 trillion ($217 million), signifying increase of 11 and 2 per cent in revenue and net profit, respectively.
Accordingly, Sabeco explained that the undeclared profit was one of the problems that Sabeco could not solve before conducting the equitisation.
Besides, it affirmed that it published information relating to the state audit’s assessment before it sold the stake for the foreign partner.

Hungary: Heineken to invest HUF2 bln in its Sopron brewery
|
Heineken Hungária will invest HUF2 billion from its own funds in its plant in Sopron (northwest Hungary) to optimize and increase production by 30%, the company was reported as saying on March 20 by state news agency MTI.
Zoltán Thuróczy, the head of the Sopron brewery, said the company will demolish old buildings, construct storage facilities, build roads and drains, and double the size of its filtering plant by yearʼs end. The investment will raise the headcount at the plant by 40 from the current 250.
The project will not affect the company’s market share as it will only compensate for the imminent loss of production at its Martfű brewery, which Heineken is turning into a distribution and logistics base, MTI noted.
Heineken Hungária CEO José Matthijsse said machinery will be moved from Martfű to Sopron, where the plant already makes nearly 50 types of product.
Heinekenʼs Hungarian operations posted HUF52 bln in revenues in 2016 and a HUF400 mln loss, according to public records.

Ireland: Guinness tops list of Ireland’s most valuable brands, again
|
Guinness has again topped the list of Ireland’s most valuable brands, coming ahead of AIB and Penneys owner Primark in the latest rankings by London-based consultancy Brand Finance, the Irish Times reported on March 16.
With up to 7.5 million pints of Guinness expected to be downed on St Patrick’s Day alone, the Diageo-owned brand was estimated to be worth €2.1 billion in 2017, up 5 per cent on the previous year.
Brand Finance said the value of the Guinness brand had been bolstered by steady global sales and new product innovations such as Pure Brew, the company’s new non-alcoholic lager, which represented a “clear strategic vision” on the part of its owner.
AIB was afforded the accolade of fastest-growing Irish brand, seeing its value jump 40 per cent to €1.9 billion on foot of an oversubscribed IPO in June and improved financial results. This moved the bank from fourth place to second place in the rankings.
In contrast, rival Bank of Ireland fell from fourth to seventh place with its brand value dropping 30 per cent to €900 million on foot of the ongoing tracker mortgage scandal and weak revenue forecasts.
“The brand had a tough year and is now going through a period

China & North Korea: Banned for export North Korean beer bottled and sold in China - sources
|
A popular North Korean beer banned under international sanctions for export outside the country is now being bottled in China and sold to restaurants as a smuggled product, Radio Free Asia reported citing sources living near the border.
The Daedong River Beer now being bought in China is not a genuine North Korean product, but is a fake, a source living in the Chinese port city of Dandong, across the Yalu River from North Korea, told RFA’s Korean Service.
“Its bottle shape and label and even its taste are similar to genuine Daedong River Beer, but beer experts can distinguish the difference in taste,” RFA’s source said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
“But as its taste is very close to that of the genuine product, ordinary people can’t tell the difference,” the source said, adding that some believe the fake product is being brewed with special hops smuggled in from North Korea.
Daedong River Beer’s exclusive authorized dealer in Dandong is currently closed under international trade sanctions imposed to punish Pyongyang for its illicit nuclear weapons and missile tests, but restaurants that formerly carried the product are still selling the beer, the source said.
“And if someone points out that Daedong River Beer is a
