Scientific Digest
Hops as a regulator for the red coloration of beer
ABSTRACT
For a change, let's go back in history for a little bit. In the early Middle Ages, beer brewers in certain German regions converted from "red beer technology" to "white beer technology (Weissbiertechnologie)". But what does this mean? Though today "Weissbier" means the same as "Weizenbeer" (wheat beer) "Weiss" in this context
is not derived from "weizen" but probably relates to the color of the beers in the old days. But why "red beer technology"? To look into this question German Researchers used black barley from Syria (used in Bronze Age Brewing) for brewing trials. These beers, if unhopped, exhibited a distinctive red hue. However if the wort was hopped the finished beer was not red but pale! And, having said this with reference to the Middle Ages, may the description of this colour change relate to the
advent of the collective use of hops in brewing? This poses the intriguing question of whether individual hop fractions suppress red coloration stemming from barley. Taking the different hop fractions for brewing trials (alpha-acids, beta acids, polyphenols, oils, lipids) and possible mechanisms for colour development, the isoalpha acids were found to be the responsible fraction that inhibits the red colour development. Wouldn't it be nice to share these insights with our brewing colleagues of the middle age? This project was supported with a Barth Haas Grant!

UK: Molson Coors launches limited-edition Carling Zest with a Hint of Winter Berries
|
Molson Coors, Britain’s biggest brewer, has launched Carling Zest with a Hint of Winter Berries (2.8% abv) as its new, limited-edition flavour, FoodBev.com reported on September 11.
The new beer will be available across the off-trade throughout the autumn and winter months.
After securing its place as the most successful new beer of 2012, Carling Zest has continued its rich vein of form this year. Carling Zest with a Hint of Citrus became a permanent listing in the off-trade following huge popular demand from retailers and their customers. Molson Coors then maintained the brand’s momentum with a marketing campaign to drive growth and incremental sales to the category.
Jeremy Gibson, Carling brand director at Molson Coors, said: “We have put a great deal of investment behind Carling Zest this year and its standing in the category shows that we are reaping the results of that. We will continue to lead the way in developing this market and excite consumers with new flavours. We had a fantastic British summer, to the delight of our off-trade customers, so this new beer has been designed to sustain the seasonal, feel-good factor, and encourage a zest for winter.”

Australia: Carlton & United Breweries defends its ownership of a number of heritage brands
|
Carlton & United Breweries has defeated an attempt by upstart brewer Thunder Road to poach a swag of heritage brands such as Abbots Lager, Cairns Draught, Tooth's, McCracken's and Brisbane Bitter, The Australian reported on September 11.
The Australian Trade Marks Office denied a request from Melbourne-based Thunder Road to strike out CUB's ownership of 59 brews no longer made by the beer giant, including Ballarat Bitter, Richmond Lager, Kent, NQ Lager and Bulimba Gold Top.
Thunder Road had argued that the company should be forced to relinquish the brands given it hadn't used them for decades, and planned to release its own beers under the same names had it been able to re-register them.
CUB's On Premise Sales Director Paul Donaldson said the company would occasionally produce the old beers in limited quantities, but there wasn't enough demand to make them part of regular production.
"CUB submitted extensive evidence as to the value of the heritage Trade Marks, their residual fame, their importance to CUB and its heritage," he said of the trademark case.
"CUB also submitted evidence of the many releases of heritage brands over the years and those brands we have in the pipeline".
The company released McCracken's and Richmond Lager to a

Australia: South Australian Barley Advisory Committee seeking feedback from growers on guidelines for variety choice
|
The South Australian Barley Advisory Committee is seeking feedback from growers on whether guidelines for variety choice will help them narrow down which barley cultivars are best suited to each cropping region, The Recorder reported on September 13.
SABAC chairman Greg Schulz, of Maitland, says with a deregulated market and multiple breeding companies, the release of many new varieties is putting pressure on South Australia’s storage system, which may be exacerbated with a large harvest likely this year.
“Segregating by variety and quality is becoming increasingly difficult in each region because of the sheer number of varieties available to growers,” he said.
“It is becoming confusing for growers on what is best to grow agronomically, what is required by end users and consumers and what segregations will be available at their nearest receival centre. Also, some older varieties might need to be reconsidered because they are not achieving the same financial return as newer varieties.”
Mr Schulz says while the committee will not make specific recommendations on what to grow, it is seeking feedback on whether principles on variety selection will be valuable to farmers.
“This could include information on variety specific agronomy through to demand for variety and quality requirements of end users and
