Scientific Digest
PLAYING WITH EXTRACTION PARAMETERS TO GET THE RIGHT FLAVOR
ABSTRACT
CO2 is a very potent in extracting basically anything you need
from hops. This UK research team worked with different conditions
including liquid and supercritical CO2, as well as the addition of
other solvents, e.g. ethanol, to extract the many important aroma
fractions from hops. Each hop variety yields distinct oil fractions
and a combination of different varieties and fractions can of course
contribute to a wide portfolio of products. Also, the processing
of aged hops is feasible and possible undesirable flavours may be
eliminated in the process.

China: China may approve AB InBev’s takeover of SABMiller as soon as this month
|
Anheuser-Busch InBev NV’s $107 billion acquisition of SABMiller Plc is nearing Chinese approval after the companies agreed to divest the maker of Snow beer, the world’s top-selling brand, Bloomberg reported on June 8 citing people familiar with the matter.
Approvals for both transactions could come as soon as this month based on typical review timelines, clearing one of the final hurdles for the biggest beer deal in history.
Though China’s Ministry of Commerce may attach some conditions to the deal, including the Snow divestiture, regulators see no major hurdles, said one of the people. Some local beermakers told the ministry that they don’t object to the takeover as it won’t have a big impact on the Chinese market, another person said.
The merged company would redraw control of the global beer market. Following divestitures, the deal will keep Budweiser, Beck’s and Stella Artois under AB InBev’s roof, while ceding control of brands including Miller in the U.S. and Peroni and Pilsner Urquell in Europe.
In clearing these global hurdles, the beer mega deal contrasts with other big proposed tie-ups that unraveled amid antitrust scrutiny, including Halliburton Co.’s failed bid for Baker Hughes Inc., Staples Inc.’s foiled merger with Office Depot Inc. and

USA & Canada: Constellation Brands’ plans for IPO of its Canadian wine business could mean it will become more reliant on beer
|
A shake-up of Constellation Brands Inc’s portfolio could be on the cards as plans emerge for an initial public offering of its Canadian wine business later this year, Harpers Wine & Spirit Trade Review reported on June 6.
The beer, wine and spirits giant is allegedly seeking an estimated valuation of C$1 billion (US$772.02 million) for the division, which includes eight wineries and 160 retail locations across Ontario.
The splitting off of its wine portfolio could mean that the company, which owns major brands such as Corona beer and Robert Mondavi wines, could become more reliant on beer.
The company made a huge leap into the beer category in 2013 when it acquired the Corona business in the US, followed up with last year’s takeover of craft brewer Ballast Point Brewing Spirits Inc.
Robert Sands, Constellation chief executive officer, said earlier in the year that he believed the wine division at Constellation was being undervalued within the broader business.
“It doesn’t really get much visibility from a value perspective, and if we treat it more as a stand-alone entity, the fact that it is a very high-performing business in Canada will become a lot more visible,” he said.
In April, Constellation Brands Inc.

Vietnam: Sabeco to pay shareholders dividend worth US13 cents for last year performance
|
Sai Gon Beer-Alcohol-Beverage Corp (Sabeco) will pay shareholders a dividend worth VND3,000 (US13 cents) per share for last year’s performance, according to the company’s annual shareholder meeting on May 27.
Sabeco will finalize the list of shareholders who receive dividend payments on June 10, and they will receive their dividends between June 29 and December 27.
The company recorded an after-tax profit of VND3.6 trillion and chartered capital of VND6.4 trillion ($285 million) at the end of last year, with the Ministry of Industry and Trade holding 90 per cent of the capital. The ministry will receive more than VND1.7 trillion from Sabeco.
This year, Sabeco is targeting an after-tax profit of VND3.4 trillion, a decrease of 5 per cent from 2015’s figure and a dividend of 25 per cent.

South Africa: AB InBev proposes enhancing employee-share program amid local union’s plans to contest approval of its takeover of SABMiller
|
Anheuser-Busch InBev NV has proposed enhancing a South African employee-share program amid local union plans to contest the approval of its takeover of SABMiller Plc, as the brewer seeks to clear the last hurdle for regulatory consent in the country, Bloomberg reported on June 7.
AB InBev will ensure participants of the plan receive the same premium offered to SABMiller shareholders by guaranteeing a minimum value for the so-called Zenzele shares in SABMiller’s South African unit when the program matures in 2020, based on the 44 pounds per share offered to SAB shareholders, AB InBev said on June 7. The maker of Budweiser is also proposing an upfront cash payment, which would be paid soon after the takeover is completed and would be included in the guaranteed amount.
AB InBev said its offer would deliver the same premium being paid to SABMiller shareholders, along with an immediate cash benefit and “no downside risk due to the guaranteed minimum value.” But that’s not enough, according to Katishi Masemola, the general secretary of South Africa’s Food and Allied Workers Union. The employee-share program should be wound up immediately, not when it matures, and replaced with a new plan that’s more relevant to the enlarged

Japan: Craft beer sector expanding slowly but steadily
|
Tomoko Sonoda was a college student during the “Dry Wars,” the years immediately following the 1987 release of the game-changing light lager Asahi Super Dry. She and her classmates held tasting parties for the spate of new brews that were released by the three other major breweries in an attempt to compete. Together, they tried to discern the different flavors, but there wasn’t much to discover. They were all more or less the same: drinkable light lagers, perfect for the Japanese beer market, The Japan Times reported on June 4.
None were able to dethrone Super Dry. Asahi represented 10 percent of the market at the time. A year later, it was 20 percent and, by 2001, Asahi had overtaken Kirin as the market leader.
This was the extent of Sonoda’s experience with beer until 1996, when she was working as a parking lot attendant at Tokyo Disneyland in Chiba Prefecture. Japan’s harsh brewing laws had been loosened two years earlier, reducing beer production requirements mandated by the Ministry of Finance from 2 million litres to a far more manageable, yet still significant, 60,000 litres. Smaller breweries began to pop up across the country.

It will distribute the company’s Bavaria Premium, Bavaria 0.0%, Hollandia, Hollandia Import and Claro in the off- and on-trades.
