Scientific Digest


Is later harvest always better? It depends...


ABSTRACT
The effect of date of harvest with Willamette and Cascade hops, already mentioned in the Newsletter march 2012, is now published in a comprehensive article. In summary, with a later harvest the hop oil content increases and the composition changes in regard to single components such as alpha-pinene, beta-pinene, myrcene, limonene, methyl heptanoate, and linalool. These changes of course also affect the sensory profile of the hop oil. Although trials with Hallertau Mittelfrueh had shown that later picked hops led to a consumer preference with regard to dry-hopped beers, this did not hold true for similar trials with Cascade hops. Like with everything in the world... it depends!

Brewery news India: Hoegaarden back in India’s market thanks to complying with food regulator’s labelling norms
Months after many imported beers, including Hoegaarden, disappeared from shops because of stricter enforcement of labelling rules, the Belgian beer is back in the market after the company’s local partner complied with the Indian food regulator’s norms, Livemint reported on February 12.

Gurgaon-based RJ Corp. (Ravi Jaipuria), the local partner of Anheuser-Busch InBev NV, adhered to Food Safety and Standards Authority of India’s (FSSAI’s) norms that require importers to clearly state all ingredients of a beverage to be printed on the bottle label.

“We have adapted labels where it was needed,” said Chris White, president and group chief executive officer of Gurgaon-based RJ Corp. “Our company always complies with local laws.”

“We will be bringing in greater quantities in 2015 to satisfy demand,” added White.

AB InBev also sells brands such as Budweiser—locally bottled in India, apart from importing beers such as Leffe, Hoegaarden and Stella Artois into the country.

Trouble for food and beverage importers started in 2014 after FSSAI tightened labelling norms on products.

According to the new norms, companies must list on the label all the ingredients used in the product in the form of imprints and not stickers. As a result of the new guideline, many ...More info on site

WhiskyWhisky News Whisky


Whisky news Canada: Canada’s distilling industry crippled by high markups at liquor outlets
Crippling markups at liquor outlets are stunting the growth of domestic distillers and efforts to expand global markets for Canadian-made spirits, Patrick O’Driscoll, CEO of Hiram Walker & Sons, was quoted as saying by The Windsor Star on February 6.

“The spirits industry in Canada has the lowest profitability of any market around the world,” O’Driscoll said. “So, to try and push it any lower could be a very dangerous situation for this industry.”

In Windsor to celebrate the launch of a new C$9-million bottling line at the historic distillery and bottling plant, O’Driscoll said such investments are uncommon in Canada because of the high burden of taxation.

“The net result of high markups means that companies like mine are operating on lower margins, making it difficult to invest in future business,” he said. “Opening up new markets for Canadian whisky is an expensive investment, and that’s one of the things that has held back the development of Canadian whisky globally.”

In Ontario, 77 cents of every retail dollar goes to federal and provincial coffers, leaving suppliers with a gross margin of 23 cents – substantially lower than that of beer and wine, said O’Driscoll.

The Liquor Control Board of Ontario is under pressure to ...More info on site
