Ireland: Irish pubs report another sales plunge in November
|
Irish pubs report a 20 percent plunge in pub draught sales in November, the Herald published on December, 15.
Industry experts are describing the crisis as "meltdown" for the market, which has seen an even bigger drop in the sale of bottle and canned beer - at 25 percent.
This follows drops of 8 percent for draught beer and 10 percent for canned beer the previous month.
Internal statistics compiled by the country’s biggest brewers shows only cheaper brands are holding steady as consumer spending wanes.
Sources predicted the financial pressure of the sales slump will lead more pubs to close or go into examinership.
The latest figures came from the largest drinks companies and distributors - Diageo, Inbev, Budweiser, Heineken and the Gleeson Group.
For the year so far, beer sales are down 5 percent. However, the rate of the fall accelerated as consumer confidence plummeted in the face of recession.
Pubs and shops are finding it hardest to sell premium brands as drinkers face a leaner Christmas and prepare for the predicted financial woes of the new year.
Cheaper drinks such as Bavaria, Tuborg and Dutch Gold are maintaining their sales figures.

Analysis of the Fungal Community in Zaopei
During the Production of Chinese Luzhou-flavour Liquor

Abstract
ABSTRACT
J. Inst. Brew. 113(1), 21–27, 2007
Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and 18S rRNA
gene analysis were carried out to analyze the fungal community
in Zaopei during the production of Chinese Luzhou-flavour liquor.
Two pairs of primers (EF4 /Fung5 and EF4/NS2-GC) were
used for the DGGE. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for clone
analysis was preformed with the primers (EF4 /EF3). The results
of the DGGE analysis showed that the fungal 18S rRNA genes
taken from the Zaopei sample of the pit had high diversity. Gene
clone libraries containing 120 clonal sequences of 18S rRNA
were constructed. The fungal diversity shift showed that the
fungal genera changed with increasing fermentation time and
four genera of fungi (Issatchenkia, Talaromyces, Aspergillus and
Eurotium) were the main dominant communities during the fermentation
of Chinese Luzhou-flavour liquor. The clonal sequences
of the genera Rhizopus and Saccharomyces were found
with difficulty from the clone libraries of Zaopei, suggesting that
the genera Rhizopus and Saccharomyces perhaps are not necessary
for saccharifying and fermenting grains during the production
of Chinese Luzhou-flavour liquor.
Key words: Chinese Luzhou-flavour liquor, clone analysis,
DGGE, fungi, 18S rRNA gene, Zaopei.
