INSPIRATION FOR HOPPING REGIMES
ABSTRACT
Very often, highly hop intensive beers create a high bitterness
since a lot of craft brewers maximize the hop addition throughout
the whole brewing process which contributes to both bittering
and aroma. However, it is possible to have a strong hop aroma and
flavor together with a low bitterness. This approach was exploited
by this German research team monitoring bitter and aroma
compounds throughout the process.

USA, CA & VA: Ballast Point Brewing and Spirits to open new brewery in Botetourt County
|
San Diego-based Ballast Point Brewing and Spirits announced on May 24 that it will bring a new brewery in Botetourt County, Virginia.
Ballast Point Brewing and Spirits plans to invest about $48 million to convert an existing building in the Greenfield industrial park into its East Coast manufacturing and retail operation. The expansion will create about 175 jobs.
“In our quest to provide the best quality, freshest beer to all of our customers, an East Coast brewery started to make a lot of sense to us,” Ballast Point founder Jack White said in a written statement.
Ballast Point is the 11th largest craft brewer in the United States by sales volume, and its move marks the second round of good news this year for a Roanoke Valley beer and recreation culture that for years has longed for a big-name player.
In March, Deschutes Brewery announced that it will build its $85 million East Coast production brewery in Roanoke.
Officials with the Roanoke Regional Partnership and Botetourt County reached out to Ballast Point more than a year ago as part of a campaign to attract craft brewers to the region. They were able to capture the attention of the West Coast brewer with an available building

USA, MO: 2nd Shift Brewing moving to a larger location in New Haven
|
2nd Shift Brewing is moving to The Hill neighbourhood in New Haven, KSDK.com reported.
The brewery, known for beers like Cat Spit Stout and Albino Pygmy Puma, has been located in New Haven, Missouri, since 2009. Co-owners Libby and Steve Crider have announced plans to relocate to a new building at 1601 Sublette Ave on the edge of The Hill neighborhood.
According to a release, the new 18,000 square foot facility will allow room for growth, production of more barrel-aged beers, and future packaging options. The new building will include a tasting room, something it did not have at its New Haven facility. And, 2nd Shift is also partnering with the Tilford Restaurant Group, which owns Mission Taco Joint, to create food offerings.
An exact opening date has not been announced, but 2nd Shift is aiming for later this summer.
2nd Shift says it will be the first ever brewery and tasting room to open on The Hill, but the surrounding area has seen several new brewing facilities open recently. Urban Chestnut opened its second location on Manchester Ave in 2014, and plans to open a smaller research brewery across the street sometime soon. Modern Brewery also has a tasting room on Manchester, with

USA, KY: Mile Wide Beer to open in late summer in Louisville
|
The mysterious Mile Wide Beer Co. announced this week it will open in late summer, also detailing what types of beers customers should expect, Insider Louisville reported on May 26.
Located at 636 Barret Ave., Louisville, Mile Wide is owned by four partners: Scott Shreffler, Kyle Tavares, Matt Landon and Patrick Smith, the latter of which also owns River City Drafthouse. Shreffler and Tavares are former representatives for Schlafly Beer, which is based in St. Louis, while Landon has worked in construction.
Word began to leak out about Mile Wide’s impending arrival last year, but the ownership team has done its best to keep the story quiet, at least until Schreffler announced his resignation from his post as regional brewery representative for Schlafly a few weeks ago.
The secrecy is ongoing to a point – only a handful of non-revealing photos have been posted on the brewery’s social media accounts, and a request to take photographs inside the space was politely denied, although the Mile Wide reps did open their doors for a tour and a few tastes. The future looks promising at the brewery in the shadows of the old grain silos perched along Beargrass Creek.
At this point the team is awaiting

USA, AZ: Dillinger Brewing Company aiming at early July opening
|
Eric Sipe turns 26 this week.
He is celebrating the occasion by working on what he hopes will become his legacy in Tucson, Arizona Daily Star reported on May 26.
In early July, Sipe and his business partner Eric Rosas plan to launch the Dillinger Brewing Company at 3895 N. Oracle Road, less than a mile south of the Tucson Mall.
The 2,400-square-feet of industrial space, once home to an embroidery shop and a dry cleaning business, will soon house a commanding 10-barrel system, which will sit just east of a taproom, offering up to six taps of Dillinger deliciousness to thirsty patrons.
The brewery will give craft beer enthusiasts somewhere to stop on their way from Pueblo Vida, Borderlands and Thunder Canyon downtown to Catalina Brewing in Marana and Thunder Canyon’s original location, north of Tucson (if they opt to take the Oracle Road corridor over Interstate 10).
“Thousands of people drive Oracle every day,” Sipe said. “Hopefully, some of them will want to stop in for a pint.”
Sipe and Rosas are Tucson natives. Sipe went to Catalina Foothills High School and Rosas to Palo Verde.
They met as members of Alpha Kappa Psi, the professional business fraternity, at the University of Arizona.

USA, CA & NJ: AleSmith Brewing Company to launch its beers in New Jersey
|
Southern California’s AleSmith Brewing Company has announce the finalization of a partnership with Whitehouse Station-based Hunterdon Distributing to launch sale of its critically acclaimed beers in New Jersey. By the end of May, AleSmith’s liquid wares will be available throughout The Garden State, a step made possible by the brewery’s recent expansion into a large, state-of-the-art facility capable of producing enough beer to supply territories further removed from its home region, TheFullPint.com reported.
“Hunterdon is very pleased to announce that we are partnering with AleSmith to bring their award-winning portfolio to New Jersey,” says Robert Hodson, corporate brand manager for The Sheehan Family Companies, Hunterdon’s parent-corporation. “Both of our companies were founded 20 years ago, and share the same passion and commitment to bringing end-consumers world-class beer. Hunterdon has been patiently waiting for AleSmith to build enough capacity to come to The Garden State, and now the wait is over.”
“It’s been a longtime goal of ours to have our beers distributed in New Jersey,” says AleSmith director of national sales James Valles. “The state’s beer-scene is vibrant and ever-growing, and we feel the wide variety of European-inspired ales we’ve built a solid name behind will fit right in and provide a

Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV on May 25 said the South African Reserve Bank has approved its proposed combination with London-listed SABMiller PLC.
The approval comes soon after the European Commission's approval of the deal, which was granted after it agreed to sell some of its businesses.
"Approval from the SARB represents an important milestone in the process of securing regulatory clearance for the transaction in South Africa," said AB InBev.
All regulatory approvals for the deal should be obtained to allow the GBP71.00 billion deal to be completed in the second half of this year.

South Africa: Competition Commission unlikely to made decision on AB InBev, SABMiller merger this week
|
South Africa’s Competition Commission is unlikely to make a decision on whether to recommend Anheuser-Busch InBev NV’s takeover of SABMiller Plc this week, further extending the regulatory process, Bloomberg reported on May 25 citing a person familiar with the situation.
The antitrust body is continuing with the investigation into the $106 billion deal, said the person, who asked not to be named as the deliberations are private. There is a possibility of completing the probe this week, but it’s very small, the person said. The Competition Commission has missed at least four earlier deadlines to complete its probe into the takeover of SABMiller, which traces its roots to Johannesburg.
AB InBev is seeking regulatory approval around the world to combine with SABMiller, creating the world’s largest brewer. The maker of Budweiser and Stella Artois won support from the European Union on May 24 after agreeing to offload SABMiller brands including Peroni and Grolsch.

The Czech Republic: The Czech Republic’s Plzeňský Prazdroj up for sale among other SABMiller assets
|
Czech brewing jewel Plzeňský Prazdroj is going up for sale. That’s the result of the go ahead from the European Commission to the massive worldwide beer deal under which global market leader InBev acquires its nearest rival SABMiller. Plzeňský Prazdroj has been in the hands of South Africa’s SAB since 1999, Radio Prague reported on May 26.
Competition watchdogs in Brussels have in fact ordered InBev to offload almost all of SABMiller’s European portfolio after looking aghast at the possible impact on the market and the likelihood that curbed competition would force up beer prices.
InBev had initially wanted to hold onto its Czech and Central European assets but they came onto the table when the European Commission maintained that its initial list of concessions were insufficient.
Plzeňský Prazdroj accounts for around a third of beer sales on the Czech market. The brand and brewery was SABMiller’s most profitable in Central Europe and had built up strong export sales across the continent. Operating profit for 2015 came to 183 million euros.
According to industry observers, the Czech assets could be sold as part of a Central European package or on their own. InBev has some time to play with, it is due to take

The Philippines: Ginebra San Miguel Inc. in talks with three foreign hard liquor producers for possible acquisitions
|
Ginebra San Miguel Inc. is in talks with three foreign hard liquor producers for possible overseas acquisitions or investments, Manila Bulletin reported on May 26.
In an interview, San Miguel Corp. (SMC) president Ramon S. Ang said “there are lots of opportunities to acquire. Most (target acquisitions) are international operations. We are talking to three who are into the hard liquor business.”
“There are brokers handling the acquisition deals for hard liquor,” said Ang pointing out that San Miguel is interested in pursuing every opportunity to expand its businesses given its strong balance sheet.
He explained that there is also an element of luck in acquisitions but, “if you notice we have a lot of acquisitions for the last eight years, we have a success rate of 80 percent. I hope we will be lucky again with these planned acquisitions.”
Meanwhile, Ang said GSMI is poised to regain leadership in the local hard liquor industry. Based on the Nielsen Retail Audit, the company already reclaimed leadership in North Luzon and South Luzon as of March 2016.
Nielsen’s annual Retail Audit also showed that GSMI recorded the fastest growth in market share among the country’s major liquor players in 2015.

Indonesia: Beer allowed in Jakarta’s minimarts again
|
Good news for those who love beer and live in Jakarta. About one year after Indonesia announced it had banned sales of alcoholic beverages in minimarkets and kiosks - a move conducted to "protect the morals and culture of Indonesian society" - Jakarta Governor Basuki Purnama Tjahja (Ahok) said alcoholic beverages with alcohol content up to five percent (which includes beer) will again be available in the capital city's minimarkets, the small retailers that have mushroomed across the city streets, Indonesia Investments reported on May 26.
However, the ban (stipulated by Trade Regulation No. 06/M-DAG/PER/1/2015 on the Control and Supervision of Procurement, Distribution, and Sale of Alcoholic Beverages) remains in place in all other parts of the country, Indonesian Trade Minister Thomas Lembong confirmed. In April 2015 the Indonesian government implemented the ban on sales of alcoholic beverages in all minimarkets and kiosks. As these small retailers have mushroomed across Indonesia's urban regions, it had become very easy - including for schoolchildren - to purchase a light alcoholic beverage. However, in the larger (and licensed) supermarkets and hypermarkets alcoholic drinks remained available. But, as the number of these larger supermarkets is limited, it became much more difficult to purchase alcoholic beverages
