Hops-raspberries...where is the difference?
ABSTRACT
To solve the mystery of hop aroma it is helpful to look into the research of other fermented beverages. Korean researchers investigated the aroma profile of raspberry wines fermented with different yeast strains. They were able to identify aroma components as sensorily important, as we know well from the hops, e.g. linalool, citronellol, terpineol and different esters. Not surprisingly they found that the choice of yeast strain has a big flavor impact on the resulting wine. So in case you run out of hops, take some raspberries for compensation!

Indonesia: Ban on sales of drinks in convenience and other small stores to hit global brewers Heineken and Diageo
|
Heineken and Diageo are braced for sales of beer in Indonesia to go flat when a government clampdown comes into force on April 16 that could affect half the country’s beer sales, The Financial Times reported on April 13.
Diageo, the world’s biggest spirits company, has called on the government of the world’s fourth-most populous country to postpone the controversial ban on sales of drinks with less than 5 per cent alcohol volume — mainly beer — in convenience and other small stores.
The decision, announced in January, is another setback in the markets on which global drinks companies are increasingly pinning their growth hopes.
Several emerging markets have shifted from promising to problematic lately, notably China, where sales of expensive cognac and whisky have fallen sharply following president Xi Jinping’s anti-corruption drive.
This has hit profits at drinks groups, including France’s Pernod Ricard and Rémy Cointreau. China’s clampdown on extravagant spending has also led to a drop in beer sales because fewer people are eating out.
The Indonesian government says its measure is aimed at reducing under-age drinking and loutish behaviour outside minimarkets. But the decree is also seen as another sign of the rising influence of Islamic groups in a country that is

Japan: Kirin Brewery says restoration of tsunami-hit brewery took about one year
|
Four years after the devastating Japan earthquake and tsunami that killed more than 18,000 people, caused billions of dollars in damage and displaced 230,000 people, many of the companies in the path of the 25-foot waves are back in business, USA Today reported on April 11.
At Kirin Brewery, a leading Japanese brand and one of the country's oldest makers, 400 staff scrambled out of the factory in Sendai to escape as 70 million beer cans floated away in a series of massive waves that followed the magnitude-9 quake on March 11, 2011. But the brewery and several other businesses in the area had a plan in place to deal with such a disaster.
"It took us about one year to complete the restoration of the brewery," Noriya Yokota, a Kirin executive, told delegates at the recent World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction. Yokota said the total cost to resume operations was $50 million.
As bad as things were, Kirin had taken steps to prepare for large temblor. Emergency kits and meals were available, and the brewery had been outfitted to lessen injuries and damage.
Disasters such as the 2011 Japanese tsunami are hard lessons in the need to prepare for the worst nature

World: Still the largest grain, oilseed exporter, USDA nevertheless lost market share to other countries
|
The USA, still the largest grain and oilseed exporter of the world, lost large market shares of wheat to the EU and Russia, of corn to South America and Ukraine, H. M. Gauger GmbH reported on March 31.
The US suppliers’ lack of competitiveness was boosted by the strength of the U.S. dollar.
American analysts are pessimistic for grain prices of the current and next crop year, they are afraid that the actual as of the end of March CBoT prices of USD 5.00 per bushel for wheat, USD 3.90 for corn and 9.75 for soybeans may drop another 50 cents between now and summer.
Only very strong droughts could change this situation, analysts believe.

UK: Farmers with stocks of malting barley from harvest 2014 could struggle to find a buyer - expert
|
British farmers sitting with malting barley still in store from harvest 2014 could struggle to find a home for their grain, a leading grain trader was quoted as saying by Press & Journal on April 12.
According to GrainCo’s commercial director for Scotland, Charlie Birnie, the market for grain still in store is virtually non-existent as the stocks are so high.
“The domestic maltster has sufficient stock to see it past harvest 2015 and the currency is making exports difficult,” he said.
“The last time we were in this scenario a number of farmers didn’t put in crop and by harvest the price had risen by £50-60 a tonne. That could happen again but for most farmers their fixed costs are relatively high so to do nothing is more costly than sowing the crop.”
Malting barley contracted tonnage for this year’s harvest was around 15% lower than last year, he said.
“The whisky industry is still buoyant but the output is not rising as quickly as distillers had budgeted for and that has raised a few question marks. The maltsters are all sitting on lots of stock and they see this as a year to use up that stock and take in less grain,” added
