A METHOD FOR REALISTIC FLAVOUR EXPECTATIONS?
ABSTRACT
The question is familiar to all of us: By assessing cone
hops or pellets, how do I know what to expect from this
hop when used in late hopping in terms of flavour? Japanese researchers have developed a standardised
method that is useful for this type of assessment. For
this method, 0.5g of alpha acids per liter were added to
distilled water and boiled at 105 degrees Celsius for 5 minutes. Bitter
and aroma compounds were analysed and sensory flavour
profiling conducted. Though a significant correlation
between sensory and analytical data was not achieved,
the flavour profiling gave reproducible insights in the
flavour properties of the hop varieties studied.

Japan: Kirin’s operating profit likely rose more than 10% last year - report
|
Kirin Holdings' group operating profit likely rose more than 10% to around 140 billion yen ($1.24 billion) for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31 as beers lost fizz but soft-drink sales bubbled up beyond expectations, Nikkei Asian Review reported on February 8.
The brewer's standing forecast has operating profit growing 7% to 134 billion yen.
Sales apparently slipped 6% to around 2.07 trillion yen. Shipments are seen down 5% in beer. The Ichiban Shibori flagship beer sold briskly, thanks to limited-edition flavors for each Japanese prefecture. But the Tanrei low-malt brand and Nodogoshi no-malt beer suffered. The segment's profits improved overall, partly on lower ingredient costs.
Overseas, Kirin enjoyed strong earnings from operations in Myanmar, in whose largest brewer the company purchased a majority stake in 2015. But in the Oceania region, beer and soft-drink sales failed to flourish against a strong yen.
The company’s fiscal 2016 earnings come out on Monday, February 13. For fiscal 2017, the company expects its beverage business to keep growing and plans to add a new flavor to the Nodogoshi lineup, targeting a 2% boost to beer sales. Profits should also improve once Kirin finalizes the sale of a Brazilian beer business that continues to face operating losses.

India: The Karnataka High Court orders closure of United Breweries (Holdings)
|
The Karnataka High Court on February 7 ordered the closure of United Breweries (Holdings) Limited, the parent company of UB Group, to recover dues payable to a US-based company by Vijay Mallya's now-defunct Kingfisher Airlines, the International Business Times reported.
IAE International Aero Engines is partly owned by United Technologies Corp's Pratt & Whitney and supplies engines for Airbus A320 jetliners.
In 2013, United Breweries (Holdings) Ltd had filed a lawsuit against International Aero Engines and its shareholders in a court in Bengaluru, alleging that the IAE V2500-A5 engines supplied to Kingfisher Airlines were "inherently defective, both in design and manufacture." United Breweries (Holdings) also sought $236 million in damages from International Aero Engines.
On Tuesday, February 7, Justice Vineet Kothari delivered the verdict while allowing a petition filed in 2012 by International Aero Engines. The Judge pronounced the order sitting at the Dharwad Bench of the High Court via video conference.
Kingfisher Airlines and United Breweries Holdings together owed Rs 153 crore to International Aero Engines in 2012 when the petition was filed. United Breweries Holdings was the guarantor for Kingfisher Airlines.
Shares of United Breweries Holdings closed at Rs 39.80, down 2.45 percent from their previous close on the BSE.

India: United Breweries board asks Vijay Mallya to step down as non-executive chairman
|
The board of United Breweries on February 8 asked Vijay Mallya to step down as its non-executive chairman following a Sebi order which barred the embattled businessman from holding directorship in any listed company, the Deccan Herald reported.
The decision was taken at the board's meeting in Mumbai on February 8.
In an e-mail to Mallya, United Breweries' Company Secretary Govind Iyengar said that in the absence of any stay or vacation of the Sebi order, the "board is compelled to request you to step down from the board" with immediate effect.
A copy of the e-mail along with extracts of the minutes of the board meeting has been submitted by the company to the BSE.
"The independent directors along with other directors present at the meeting held on February 6, 2017 had resolved not to send the notices and agenda relating to board meetings and/or other privileged information to Vijay Mallya till such time he obtains stay of the Sebi order," the company added.
The board deliberated on the matter and also reviewed the legal opinions obtained in this regard.
Last month, Sebi had banned Mallya and six former officials of United Spirits Ltd (USL) from securities markets in a case related to illegal fund

Ethiopia: Habesha Breweries mulling launch of new zero- and low-alcohol beers
|
Ethiopia’s Habesha Breweries SC is contemplating to bottle new beverages, EthioSports reported on February 5.
Getaneh Asfaw, marketing manager, told The Reporter that his company is planning to produce sparkling and still water, non-alcoholic beer and a new beer with low alcohol content.
Habesha Beer, which joined the local market in July 2015, has become a popular beer brand. The beer has five percent alcohol content. The company is now planning to introduce beer with lower alcohol content.
“We will decide based on the market study. It is too early to talk about the details,” Getaneh said.
Asked if Habesha will build a new plant that will bottle the planned products or use the existing facility Getaneh said it will be decided based on the study. The study will be completed within three months. The company hopes to introduce the new products in 2018.
Habesha Breweries was established by 8,000 Ethiopian shareholders including traditional associations like equbs, idirs and Ethiopians in the diaspora who contributed 4,000 birr to 5 million birr. Habesha built its 650,000 hectolitres beer manufacturing plant in Debre Birhan city, 120 km north of Addis Ababa. The second largest brewery in the Netherlands, Bavaria, holds 40 percent stake in Habesha Breweries.

Trinidad and Tobago: Recent beer tax hikes has no effect on consumption
|
Recent tax hikes on beer and cigarettes in Trinidad and Tobago have not affected consumption of these two items and have actually contributed to increased Government revenue from the two areas, Finance Minister Colm Imbert was quoted as saying by the Trinidad Guardian on February 7.
But there’s been no increased revenue following tax hikes on rum/spirits, he added during a Senate contribution.
Imbert spoke about the situation, in dealing with orders to finalise tax hikes on beer, cigarettes and rum/spirits. These had been announced last year in the 2017 Budget. The orders apply to customs import/excise duties on the products including from the Caricom area.
Among reasons was to curb excessive consumption of cigarettes particularly. Imbert noted it cost $500,000 to treat one lung cancer case.
Imbert said despite the increased taxes on beer, there was no apparent decrease in consumption, but rather, increased revenue from this area.
He said revenue from this item stood at $47 million over October/ December 2015, but rose to $55 million over the same period in 2016 following the tax hike.
Imbert said revenue collection was also up for cigarettes despite higher taxes on the product. Revenue for October/December 2015 was $50.8 million. This rose to $58 million over

India: Diageo may be forced to buy rest of shares in United Spirits Limited
|
India’s stock market regulators are mulling whether to force Diageo to offer to buy the 44% of the shares it does not own in United Spirits Limited (USL), the sub-continent’s largest spirits group, The Drinks Business reported on February 7.
The debate centres on last year’s controversial US$75 mln payment from Diageo to Vijay Mallya to secure his severing links with USL and standing down as the company’s non-executive chairman. Did that deal bring about a change of control at USL? If it did, then Diageo could be required to make an “open offer” to buyout other USL shareholders.
India’s Economic Times has quoted a senior official at the country’s Securities and Exchange Board (Sebi) as saying “Our view is that before the settlement agreement was entered into there was dual control of Mallya and Diageo in USL, but now there is a change of control.”
For its part Diageo is quoted as saying: “It is clear that Diageo has been in control of USL since we started fully consolidating USL results in July 2014. We are, therefore, very clear that there was no change of control in February 2016 [when the Mallya deal was concluded].”
Should the securities board decide against Diageo and
