Scientific Digest


1.3-pentadiene in hops


ABSTRACT
Of course hops deliver beautiful flavours into beer. But once in a while something not so appealing is detected as well. These US researchers identified 1,3-pentadiene in commercial CO2 hop extract and hop pellets. The compound was initially thought to be a contaminant from either the process or packaging but has now been shown to be a naturally derived degradation product of hop acids. The researchers were also able to propose a plausible mechanism for its formation from alpha or beta hop acids that can be also transferred into beer. This substance is described as an fusel oil-like off flavor. However threshold values in beer are unknown so the impact on flavor yet has to be investigated.

Brewery news World: SABMiller and Diageo expected to report stagnated or even lower first-quarter alcohol sales
The heads of two of the UK’s biggest companies have a drinks problem – how to find growth, The Financial Times reported on October 12.

Alan Clark at SABMiller, the brewer, and Ivan Menezes of Diageo, the world’s largest spirits group, are both expected to report that alcohol sales in the last quarter stagnated – or even fell – when they give updates to the market this week.

A cocktail of factors over the past year, including weakness in emerging markets, unfavourable currency movements but also falling consumption in the competitive markets of North America and Europe, have held back growth.

Diageo, the producer of Johnnie Walker Scotch whisky, Smirnoff vodka and Guinness beer, suffered a 9 per cent drop in sales to £10.3 bln in the year to the end of June and an 11 per cent fall in pre-tax profits to £2.7 bln – its weakest result in three years.

At SABMiller, net sales fell 1 per cent in the year to the end of March to $26.7 bln, while pre-tax profits rose 3 per cent to $4.8 bln.

Given that the two men took the helm of their respective companies only last year from long-serving predecessors, the weaker trading means the ...More info on site

Brewery news World: AB InBev may also look into buying PepsiCo Inc. - analysts
If Anheuser-Busch InBev NV can’t grab the beer of its choice, it could settle for a Pepsi, Bloomberg reported on October 12.

With almost $90 billion in deals over the last 10 years, including the 2008 acquisition of the maker of Budweiser, no other beverage company spends like AB InBev does. Most of the speculation on the $170 billion beer behemoth’s next move has focused on the industry’s No. 2 brewer, SABMiller Plc. A company of AB InBev’s size and ambitions has other options though, including PepsiCo Inc.

AB InBev and its advisers have long studied whether a merger with the $142 billion soda and snacks company makes strategic and financial sense, said people familiar with the matter. However, no talks are happening now, no deal is imminent, and the scenario is among many it has looked at, one of the people added, asking not to be identified because the information is private. AB InBev should think beyond the beer market, said Albert Fried & Co. That could put Monster Beverage Corp. or Keurig Green Mountain Inc. even further away from the brewer’s core, on its radar. Either way, AB InBev probably won’t walk away empty-handed.

Brewery news Canada: Molson Canada and Miller Brewing Co. settle fight over Miller Genuine Draft distribution
Beer giants Molson Canada and Miller Brewing Co. have settled their fight over who gets to sell Miller Genuine Draft in Canada, The Globe and Mail reported on October 10.

The two companies announced last week that they have amicably settled a legal dispute that has been going on for years. As of April 2015, Miller will take over the sales of Miller products, including the key Genuine Draft brand, which had been part of the Molson portfolio of beer in Canada.

Molson, a unit of Molson Coors Brewing Co., has had the exclusive rights to distribute Miller products – such as Genuine Draft – under an arrangement that goes back decades. But Miller wanted to end the arrangement, because it thinks it can do a better job of selling its own beer in Canada. Miller gave official notice in January 2013 that it wanted to end the deal as of July of that year, but Molson said that couldn’t be done under the terms of the contract. It went to court in May 2013 to get a temporary injunction to keep the distribution arrangement in place until the merits of the dispute could be heard in court.

A court date was set, ...More info on site


Brewery news Japan: Sales of “happoshu” low-malt quasi-beer jump 24% in September
Brewers’ domestic sales of “happoshu” low-malt quasi-beer jumped about 24 percent from a year earlier in September, thanks to the release of new products that their makers say are free from purine bodies, which may cause gout if their intake is excessive, The Japan News reported on October 11.

As for purine-free happoshu brands released in September, Kirin Brewery Co. sold 940,000 cases of “Kirin Tanrei Platinum Double,” Asahi Breweries Ltd. 540,000 cases of “Super Zero” and Suntory Liquors Ltd., a Suntory Holdings Ltd. unit, 360,000 cases of “Oishi Zero.” Each case contains the equivalent of 20 633-milliliter bottles.

Meanwhile, sales of “Goku Zero” of Sapporo Breweries Ltd., the pioneer purine-free brand, relaunched as a happoshu product in July, amounted to 520,000 cases.
