Scientific Digest
Assessment of changes in hop resins and polyphenols during long-term storage
ABSTRACT
The storage stability of hop pellets is a concern of every brewer and it has been shown in the past that certain varieties exhibit a better storage stability than others. This study was an extensive investigation about the storage stability of the
Czech hop varieties Sladek, Agnus, Saaz and Premiant. Aging of hop pellets was negilible during storage if the pellets were protected from oxygen. When exposed to oxygen, the degradation of alpha and beta acids was severe and accelerated after 6 months. In this comparison, Saaz was found to be the most stable Czech hop variety.

USA: New research confirms consumers shift towards craft beer
|
According to Chicago-based research firm Mintel, consumers who were of legal drinking age in 2012 are the most likely to report increased consumption of beer (14 percent), which includes 7 percent of respondents who are drinking more craft beer in 2013 compared to 2012.
In addition, discovery of new beers is popular with 93 percent of imported beer drinkers, 88 percent of domestic fans and 84 percent of craft beer consumers.
Mintel released these new insights as the industry celebrates American Craft Beer Week.
Broken down by demographics, craft beers appeal to 49 percent of Millennials and 40 percent of those in Generation X. However, only 29 percent of Baby Boomers and 22 percent of the Swing Generation/World War II demographic find the segment appealing, the research firm added.
Hispanic consumers also turn to craft beer, with 38 percent indicating that they drink craft beer at any time. However, Mintel also found there is room to capture more of the Hispanic market -- 58 percent of Hispanics over 21 years old report drinking domestic beer and 55 percent of Hispanics drink imported beer.
In addition, 73 percent of craft beer drinkers say they usually know what brand of beer they are going to buy before

Africa: SABMiller counting on local crops to expand in Africa
|
SABMiller plc is counting on cassava and other local crops such as sorghum to expand in Africa, where it estimates homebrews or cheap spirits account for some three-quarters of all alcohol consumed, Bloomberg reported on May, 16.
Brewers in recent years have increasingly emphasized high-end brands to boost margins by getting drinkers to spend more on each beer they consume. While SABMiller’s cassava-based Eagle beer is far from a premium product, it represents a similar strategy because for the majority of Africa’s population the beer is an indulgence that costs more than twice what homebrews do.
Emerging markets are key for brewers. The three biggest are based in Western Europe where austerity and a prolonged economic slump have cut into consumption. SABMiller, which traces its roots to South Africa, gets more of its sales outside of Europe and North America than the others, which has helped keep its estimated price-earnings ratio at the highest of its peer group.
Shares of London-based SABMiller have rallied about 60 percent since November 2011, when it launched its first cassava-based beer, Impala, in Mozambique. Impala now accounts for more than 5 percent of Cerveceria de Mocambique’s volume.

Zimbabwe: SABMiller’s Delta Corporation achieves 36% rise in FY earnings
|
SABMiller's Zimbabwe unit reported a 36 percent rise in full-year earnings on May, 15, driven by strong sales of premium lager and non-alcoholic beverages, The Economic Times said.
Delta Corporation, 38 percent owned by global brewing giant SABMiller, said earnings per share rose to 8.49 cents in the year ending March, up from 6.22 cents previously.
After-tax profit rose to $104 million, compared to $72 million in 2012.
Zimbabwe's economy, which had grown by nearly double digit figures from 2009 to 2011, was expected to grow 5 percent this year after a sharp slowdown in 2012.
Elections planned for later this year could pose risks for the fragile economy in the southern African country where previous polls have been marred by deadly violence.

World: Diageo to toast soon the retirement of CEO Paul Walsh
|
Diageo, the British company behind spirits like Guinness, Johnnie Walker Scotch and Smirnoff vodka, will soon toast the retirement of its long time chief, Paul S. Walsh. The veteran executive plans to pass the top job to COO Ivan M. Menezes at the beginning of July, the company announced earlier this month.
Walsh, who managed an impressive expansion of Diageo’s business, will remain for a year to ease the transition. He plans to retire in June 2014. Under Walsh, Diageo’s stock rose more than 250%, as he maneuvered the company into faster-growing emerging markets.
“The handover is being made at a time when the business is strong and Ivan takes on the role of chief executive officer at an exciting stage of the company’s global development,” says Diageo Chairman Franz B. Humer.
Walsh made no secret of this succession planning, telling The Wall Street Journal last year, “I think every CEO should take the issue of succession planning very, very seriously. My job is to give the board options. It’s pretty clear…that Ivan is the lead internal candidate. There are many other talented players in this business as well, but Ivan is the lead player.”
Menezes played a role in Walsh’s growth plans,

USA: North Dakota Barley Council chairman comments on the US malting barley industry
|
North Dakota Barley Council chairman Doyle Lentz attended the World Barley, Malt and Beer Conference in Madrid, Spain and addressed those attending on what the United States is doing to stabilize and perhaps even expand barley acres in the U.S, Farm & Ranch Guide reported on May, 16.
This was the seventh gathering for this group, which was held in mid-March. Hosted biennially since 2001, the three-day event is attended by more than 300 people from about 40 countries.
“When we started seeing a decline in barley acres in the U.S., we started going to these so we could get a feel for what was going on in the world,” Lentz said. “When these conferences first started there was no problem with barley supply in other parts of the world. But now those other areas of the world are seeing a decline in barley acres as growers switch to other crops.”
“So all of a sudden they are quite interested in what we have done in the U.S.,” he said.
In his presentation titled “Challenges to the barley supply chain in a ‘specialty crop environment’ – ideas to prevent the U.S. scenario”, Lentz outlined how barley has basically become a specialty crop with most
