New treasures in hop bracts
ABSTRACT
If you think that every compound in hops is known
and characterised, we have to disillusion you. Though
we know most of what can be found in the lupulin
glands, we are pretty clueless about the rest of the
hop - but perhaps not any longer! Japanese
researchers have identified 20 compounds which so
far were not reported. Most of the compounds were
hydrophilic glycosylated and/or esterified analogues
of abscisic acids, hydroxycinnamic acids, flavonols,
lignans, hydroxybenzoic acids, or carotenoids. In
addition, large amounts of highly oligomeric
proanthocyanidins were found. Who knows what the
potential of these compounds in a health context is!

Japan: Beer-like beverages and cocktails expected to continue enjoying stable growth in demand
|
Japanese brewers will release their longest-ever line-up of canned cocktails this summer as fizzy concoctions come to the fore in efforts to offset a decade of declining beer sales, Reuters reported on July 3.
Brewers such as Kirin Holdings Co Ltd have long tried to retain drinkers by making ever-cheaper, beer-like beverages. But changing tastes among Japan's youth have seen beer drinks giving up fridge space to highballs, white-wine spritzers and pineapple-flavored rum cocktails.
These so-called Ready-to-Drink (RTD) cocktails, like the cheapest beer-like drinks, fall into a low-tax category of Japan's complex liquor tax regime and can be priced far less than traditional tipples. This has helped them become the top introduction to alcohol among 20-somethings, according to a survey from brewer Suntory Holdings Ltd.
In response to rising popularity, Suntory plans to release a record 23 canned cocktail labels from June to August versus 17 last year. Asahi Group Holdings launched a hot-seller in May, and Kirin announced a new range in June.
The increased choice means "this will be an important summer to further boost demand in RTDs," Suntory Managing Director Shinji Yamada said.
Demand is likely to be so strong that Suntory plans to raise output for its Strong Zero series of

China: Molson Coors Brewing adapting its cold activated bottles and cans to local beer drinkers taste
|
Not all beer drinkers want to grab a cold one.
Molson Coors Brewing Co. discovered this in China, where it altered the cold activated bottles and cans last year for Coors Light featuring images of the Rocky Mountains that turn blue when the beer is at ice cold temperatures, Bloomberg reported on July 2.
Drinking cold liquids is widely seen as undesirable in China. Warmer beverages are considered healthier for digestion, an idea that also stems from the traditional habit of boiling water to make it safer to drink.
In light of this custom, “we dropped the temperature for the thermochromatic ink, and it still turns blue, but it’s not so cold,” Peter Swinburn, chief executive officer of Molson Coors, said in an interview last week.
The mountains on the cans and bottles turn blue at 41 to 44.6 degrees Fahrenheit (5 to 7 degrees Celsius) in China, while the color changes at about 39.2 degrees Fahrenheit in the U.S.
Such attention to detail is key to Molson Coors as it pursues growth in developing markets. Rising incomes and a growing middle class are helping drive sales in countries such as India and China, where beer volume is predicted to grow 7.9 percent and 3.6

Ghana: Accra Brewery Limited believes its market share could grow above 50% thanks to ongoing capacity expansion
|
The Managing Director (MD) of Accra Brewery Limited (ABL), Mr Anthony Grendon, has said the company is investing about US$100 million to expand its brewery capacity in Ghana, GhanaWeb reported on July 3.
The ABL MD explained that: “Our potential to grow the beer market has been curtailed by our lack of capacity, and that is why we are investing that money,” he said.
Mr Grendon, who disclosed this in an interview with the media shortly after the launch of the new Stone Lager Beer on June 11, 2014 in Accra, said: “We believe our market should grow way above the 50 per cent and the expansion will help us get there.”
He said the rice industry in the country was expected to receive a fair share of the returns on that investment as the company hit the market with its new Stone Lager Beer made from locally produced rice.
He said their new Stone Lager Beer was the first ever beer in Ghana that was made from a locally produced rice, and, therefore, urged consumers to patronise the product, “so that the farmers could make more money”.
He said the main reason behind the use of the locally produced rice was to accelerate rice

South America: Ambev pitting its top Brazil and Argentine bestselling beers against each other in World Cup commercials
|
Ambev SA is pitting its top Brazil beer against the company’s Argentine best seller in World Cup advertisements that play up a rivalry between the soccer-obsessed nations, Bloomberg reported on July 3.
In Skol’s television ad, Brazilian soccer fans lure their Argentine counterparts into a house that’s then packed up and shot out of a cannon back to Buenos Aires. Quilmes’s dig is more subtle. At the end of the commercial a narrator intones: “You’ll regret you issued even one ticket,” referencing reports that demand for tickets from Argentines topped supply.
The fact that both brands belong to Anheuser-Busch InBev NV’s Ambev SA makes the strategy unusual, said Leslie Farnsworth, chief executive officer of FrogDog, a Houston-based marketing strategy consultant. Leuven, Belgium-based InBev also owns U.S. favorite Budweiser and Belgium’s Stella Artois. The two nations faced off on the soccer field earlier this week, with Belgium beating the American team 2-1.
“Playing into that national fervor, especially around the World Cup, makes a lot of sense,” Farnsworth said in a telephone interview. “I don’t know of a precedent where a company has owned both brands and then has decided to position them like this.”
Brazil and Argentina are among the favorites to make it

India: Maharashtra beer industry affected by water shortage
|
Delayed monsoon may lead to shortage of beer in the state of Maharashtra as breweries in the Waluj industrial area here have been facing water crunch. Nearly 80% breweries that supply beer to cities across Maharashtra, including Pune, are in Waluj, The Times of India reported on July 3.
With storage in Aurangabad's Jayakwadi dam at only 3.5% as of now, officials of the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation there plan a 10% water cut for industries, including breweries if the rain is delayed by a few more days.
A source from a brewery that manufactures an international beer brand in Aurangabad said that the company had been facing shortage of water for a month now. "We have not been getting enough stock of water, leading a fall in production from 20,000 cases per day to 2,000 cases," he said. One case holds about 12 bottles.
The company now has to depend on water from tankers for production. "With no rain and ongoing water shortage, beer production at some companies may fall by 50 to 60% in around two months," he said.
An official from the MIDC said, "If it does not rain in another week or so, we will most likely curtail the water

India: Diageo raises stake in United Spirits to nearly 55%
|
Diageo Plc, the world's largest distiller, has acquired an additional 26 per cent stake in United Spirits for Rs11,448 crore, taking its total share in India's largest liquor maker to nearly 55 per cent, Diageo said on July 2.
Diageo said it has completed a tender offer to acquire the shares after its first attempt to do so in November 2012 failed due to poor response.
Diageo, which owns famous brands like Johnnie Walker whisky and Smirnoff vodka, has invested a total of Rs18,023 crore to acquire a majority stake in United Spirits, previously controlled by liquor baron and failed airline promoter Vijay Mallya's United Breweries.
Diageo's first attempt to buy 26 per cent stake from the public was priced at Rs1,440 a share, and it was able to mop up only 0.4 per cent at that price.
In April this year, Diageo sweetened its offer by doubling the offer price to Rs3,030 a share, which resulted in overwhelming response from investors.
A statement from Diageo said the shares tendered and accepted by the company are in the process of being transferred to its wholly-owned subsidiary Relay BV and represent 26 per cent of United Spirits' issued share capital.
India is considered the world's largest whisky
