Scientific Digest
What about the aroma potential of glycoside-linked
compounds?
ABSTRACT
US and German researchers used spent hops
from CO2 extraction to brew beers that only differed
in the point of addition of the spent hop material (in
the boil, end of fermentation, after filtration) hoping
that enzyme activity would produce different
amounts of different monoterpenes. Though
analytical differences were not significant, the
sensory data showed that each beer was significantly
different. While the addition at end of fermentation
yielded in stronger tropical/melon like aroma, the
addition after filtration showed stronger herbal/ice
tea, grassy/hay and earthy/tobacco aroma. So yes,
spent hops add to your hop aroma and beer, but scientists have not yet quantified what it is!

USA, OH: Crafted Pints Brewing Co. to open in Dayton before the end of the year
|
A new brewery is fermenting in Dayton, OH, Dayton Daily News reported on June 10.
The owners of Crafted Pints Brewing Co. have leased a barn on the grounds of Hidden Valley Fruit Farm at 5474 N. State Route 48 and hope to open a brewery before the end of the year.
Plans call for producing an array of beers and hard ciders, with the fruit and some hops sourced from Hidden Valley orchards and farm fields, according to co-owner and lead brewer Jerrod Fisher of Dayton. The products would be distributed in both the Dayton and Cincinnati areas in draft form initially, with long-term plans calling for canning the brews for retail sales, Fisher said.
Fisher and his business partners — Mike Meholick and Greg Cason, both of Huber Heights — looked first at locations in downtown Dayton and elsewhere in the region. But Fisher called the partnership with Hidden Valley “a truly unique opportunity.”
The owners’ backgrounds are in design, sales, and marketing, and Fisher said he began home-brewing seven years ago.
“We have finalized recipes for several stouts, IPAs, pale ales, brown ales, saisons and wheat beers,” Fisher said. “We’ll have four to six beers available year-round, and we’ll mix others in

Aeronaut has hosted a number of open houses leading up to its grand opening. The debut roster of beers includes Armadillo, an American IPA; Lagerfeuer, a Rauchbier; and more.

USA: TTB issues ruling on formulas for beer
|
On June 5, 2014 the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) issued TTB Ruling 2014-4, exempting from TTB’s formula and pre-import approval (PIA) submission requirements beer made with dozens ingredients as well as beer subjected to wood aging processes. TTB now finds these ingredients and processes to be traditionally used in the production of beer. The Ruling stems from a Brewer’s Association Petition filed with TTB in 2006 with the assistance of McDermott Will & Emery. As the Ruling explains, TTB initially rejected the petition, but with continued industry interest and additional fact-finding the TTB has reversed its position. The Ruling includes an attached list of exempted ingredients and processes, as well as examples of acceptable label designations.
Materials that brewers (including for imported or PIA beer) can now use without the need for a formula include:
Fruits: Apples, apricots, blackberries, blueberries, cherries, cranberries, juniper berries, lemons, oranges, peaches, pumpkins, raspberries and strawberries.
Spices: Allspice, anise, pepper/peppercorns, cardamom, cinnamon, clove, cocoa (powder or nibs), coriander, ginger, nutmeg, orange or lemon peel or zest, star anise and vanilla (whole bean).
Other Ingredients: Brown Sugar, candy (candi sugar), chili peppers, chocolate, coffee (beans or grounds), honey,

USA, NH: The Able Ebenezer Brewing Company to hold grand opening on June 14
|
The Able Ebenezer Brewing Company is proud to announce the grand opening of its brewery and tasting room in Merrimack, NH. Founded by veterans and aspiring entrepreneurs with a love for craft beer, the brewery is located just off of Daniel Webster Highway, and is a great place to share some stories, experience great beer and even learn a little about local New Hampshire history, Brewbound reported on June 9.
The Able Ebenezer Brewing Company is no ordinary brewery. Its brand and beers are inspired by historical events. “The people of New Hampshire love and are proud of their state’s origins,” said Accounts & Engineering Director and Co-Founder Carl Soderberg. “We are inspired by stories of action, more specifically stories of a person’s achievement. In search of our own success we strive to provide an experience along with our beer that is unlike any other.”
To celebrate, Able Ebenezer will be hosting a Grand Opening on June 14th, 2014 from 12 pm to 8 pm at their brewery located at 31 Columbia Circle in Merrimack, NH.

USA, NC: Asheville’s Burial Beer Co. to expand greatly this summer
|
Asheville’s Burial Beer Co. will celebrate its first year in business by greatly expanding its production system this summer, Citizen-Times reported on June 6.
Burial, at 40 Collier Ave. on the South Slope, has ordered a 10-barrel brewing system that should be online by August, said Jessica Reiser, who owns and operates Burial with her husband Doug and their brewer partner Tim Gormley. Burial currently brews on a one-barrel system and produced just 150 barrels of beer in its first year, she said.
The location for the new brewing system has not yet been decided, she said. “There is such a great vibe here,” she said. “But we are still firming up the details. Our endgame is to have a 10-barrel system in downtown somewhere and a 30-barrel production facility outside of Asheville.”
Burial will mark its anniversary June 14 with the bottle release of a saison aged on apricots and plums, Gormley said. Only 200 bottles of the Anno Domini MMXIV saison will be sold.
Many of Asheville-Buncombe’s 17 breweries have announced expansions. Highland Brewing, the city’s first craft brewery, is spending $5 million on its expansion at 12 Old Charlotte Highway, with some work already underway, owner Oscar Wong said. Green Man

USA, MI: Dutch Girl Brewing hoping to launch in Spring Lake by fall
|
Another microbrewery is coming to the Muskegon area: this time, in Spring Lake, Mlive reported on June 8.
Dutch Girl Brewing is a project of the husband-wife team of Luke Finchem and Kelly Rozema Finchem. The duo is still in the planning stages and a location hasn't been officially decided upon, but Kelly said it will be located somewhere in Spring Lake and they hope to open by the fall.
The opening of the brewery continues the trend of microbreweries popping up throughout West Michigan. The movement that started in Grand Rapids has since spread to the Lakeshore.
A pair of breweries, Unruly Brewing Co. and Pigeon Hill Brewing Company, opened in downtown Muskegon in December 2013 and March 2014, respectively.
Another, Fetch Brewing Co., is set to open its doors in Whitehall sometime this summer and nearby Grand Haven is already home to Oddside Ales. "Dutch Girl" will join Old Boys' Brewhouse and Vandermill Cider in Spring Lake.
"The beer scene in Michigan is one of the top five in the nation," Kelly said. "Along the Lakeshore, they've been popping up all over the place. You can never have enough, there's definitely a market for it. It's like Luke always says, 'Are there ever

South Africa: Surge in share price takes SABMiller past R1-trillion market capitalisation mark for the first time
|
A 5.58% surge in SABMiller’s share price in South Africa took it past the R1-trillion market capitalisation mark for the first time on June 10, Business Day reported.
The only other JSE company with a market cap over R1-trillion is another "sin stock", British American Tobacco (BAT).
SABMiller also led the London Stock Exchange higher on June 10. Reuters reported traders were citing fresh talks about the merger of the brewer with a major European beer company.
"Companies have got a lot of money and are looking at places to spend. SABMiller is just as likely a candidate as anyone else. I think it’s more chatter than substance at this moment," CMC Markets chief market analyst Michael Hewson told Reuters.
On the JSE, the brewing giant jumped 5.58% to R615.34, helping the R9.94-trillion all share index to another record close above the 50,000-point mark, as industrial stocks continued to tighten their grip on the local bourse.
BAT occupies the top spot on the JSE with market capitalisation of R1.28-trillion, followed by SABMiller and Glencore.
"The recent SABMiller results were fractionally above consensus with faster than expected internal cost savings coming through. The internally focused programme highlights how costs and margins will be the earnings drivers going

India: United Breweries Holdings releases a pledge on 2.83% stake in United Breweries
|
United Breweries Holdings (UBHL), the parent company of Vijay Mallya's UB Group, has released a pledge on 7.5 million shares (2.83% stake) of beer major United Breweries (UBL), the company said in a communication to the stock exchanges on June 9.
UBHL also released a pledge on 46,000 shares of United Spirits (USL).
Both the events took place on May 30, the company said in a filing to Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). The encumbrance for these shares had been made in favour of IFCI, an Indian government owned development bank.
Incidentally, USL's co-promoter, UK-based liquor major Diageo, is offering to buy 26% from public shareholders in an open offer worth around R11,500 crore.
Late last month, UBHL released pledges on 1.9 million shares of USL, which had been made in favour of Sicom, a financial institution owned by the Maharashtra government.
During the same period, UBHL also released pledges on nine million shares (7.59% stake) of Mangalore Chemicals and Fertilizers (MCF) which is currently in the midst of a battle for control. Mallya has teamed up with the Saroj Poddar-led Adventz Group to counter the Pune-headquartered Deepak Fertilisers' open offer to acquire majority stake in MCF.

UK & India: Diageo’s offer to acquire 26% stake in United Spirits begins
|
London-based liquor giant Diageo’s open offer to acquire 3.7 crore shares or 26% stake in United Spirits began on Friday, June 6. For a consideration of Rs 11,448 crore, Diageo’s stake in United Spirits will rise to 54.78% assuming full acceptance. The offer is priced at Rs 3,030/share, The Financial Express reported.
Currently, Diageo through its wholly-owned subsidiary Relay BV, holds 28.78% in United Spirits. United Breweries Holdings’ stake stands at 5.93%.
Analysts say that the offer is unlikely to see full acceptance. “We do not expect a full acceptance for the offer and believe longer-term investors will wait for the premiumisation theme to play out in USL over the next 18-24 months,” said IDFC Institutional Securities in a recent note.
“The market seems to be implying an acceptance ratio in excess of 70%, considering the current spread between the estimated fair price and the current market price,” Kotak Institutional Equities added. Currently, the total public shareholding in United Spirits stands at 60% or 8.8 crore shares.
Experts believe this is a good opportunity for investors to exit the scrip as there are few short-term triggers. “The upside remains limited in the stock. The company also remains highly leveraged,” said Manish Poddar, consumer &

Namibia: Namibia Breweries Limited officially starts producing Camelthorn Weizen beer
|
Namibia Breweries Limited has officially started producing the Camelthorn Weizen beer, after acquiring Camelthorn beer company, a Windhoek based struggling start-up small beer maker, All Africa reported on June 9.
Camelthorn produce weizen beer, which is a wheat malt beer.
"This unique, truly African, Bavarian Style wheat beer will complement the other beers in the NBL portfolio and provides the discerning beer drinker with yet another option of quality brewed Namibian beer. While Camelthorn Weizen is also brewed according to the strict Reinheitsgebot brewing standards, it differs from the current NBL beers as it is not a lager beer, because it contains wheat and malt. Camelthorn Weizen is Namibia's first locally brewed, premium weiss beer, with an alcohol by volume of 4.5 percent," said Thomas Hochreiter of Namibia Breweries Limited (NBL).
Namibia Breweries Limited is a subsidiary of the Ohlthaver & List (O&L) Group of Companies. The weiss beer is available in bars on tap as well as in 330ml bottles.
The NBL barley trials have thus far delivered sufficient quantities of Namibian grown barley to allow NBL to use it to brew beer in small batches. "As Camelthorn Weizen is a relatively small brand appealing to a niche market, we have sufficient
