Scientific Digest
The hidden treasures of the hard resins
ABSTRACT
For decades, maybe even for centuries nobody cared about
the hard resin fraction of hops. We have learned that the
hard resins can be used to add a pleasant bitterness to beer. Researchers showed that by using a specific extract of the hard resins, the
concentration of a number of bioeffective Xanthohumol
derivatives can be enriched tremendously. These findings
could help in the development of a new generation of
health related beverages. Read more

South Africa: SABMiller working with pub owners to get more female drinkers
|
To get women to drink more at her pub, Susan Mathane is starting in the toilet.
The South African entrepreneur is working with SABMiller to give her bar - Susan’s Place in Tembisa - a facelift.
Last year she added niceties including extra couches, drinking glasses, a thatched roof and a pristine ladies toilet - moves meant to transform her tavern into a place women would want to drop in and stay awhile.
Despite controlling about 90 percent of the South African market, where it first sold beer to thirsty miners more than a century ago, the world’s second-largest brewer struggled to grow last year amid rising inflation and increased competition from Heineken and Diageo, BusinessReport communicated on May 16.
So it’s working with 6,000 pub owners like Mathane, giving advice and sometimes funds to improve bars from the informal shebeens of apartheid to legal, safe taverns - that happen to serve mostly SABMiller beer.
The brewer gets much of its revenue from emerging markets, making it both vulnerable to economic busts and well-placed to benefit from the booms.
In South Africa, a weakening rand and an unemployment rate hovering around 25 percent led the company to narrow its profit forecast in March.
“With demand being weak,

Australia: Hop Products Australia reports crop 2014 results
|
For Hop Products Australia’s crop 2014 the area harvested was 408 hectares, a decrease of 41 hectares from crop 2013, the company reported in April.
This decrease is reflective of the scheduled replanting program, with approximately 20% of HPA production area replanted with new flavour varieties during the spring and early summer.
With a challenging growing season behind us the yields by variety were quite variable. In some cases varieties yielded well beyond expectation, however the season proved more challenging for some and despite lots of cones being present the cone weight of some varieties fell well short of long term averages.
Overall, the area harvested yielded 1,079 MT which is a relatively small decrease in overall yield. The reduction in the number of hectares harvested was compensated by a modest increase in the average yield of hops / hectare.
All in all the harvest result was in line with budgeted expectations, enabling HAP to meet all contracted commitments and still hold a modest long position of most varieties.
