MORE SPECIFICS WHY HOPS ARE GOOD
TO INCREASE FLAVOUR STABILITY
ABSTRACT
German brewing scientists have already been
looking into this for a couple of years. The ability
of hop constituents to suppress the formation of
3-methylbutanal and 2-furfural in wort-like model
systems containing maltose, leucine, and Fe2+ was
investigated. The functional principle by which
hop alpha-acids and beta-acids diminish the formation of
3-methylbutanal and 2-furfural may be ascribed to their
unique molecular structure and chemical properties.
This allows them to perturb oxidative or nonoxidative
formation of aldehydes. Findings from this study indicate that antioxidative potential may be
explained through, but not necessarily limited to,
two mechanisms. First, because of the hop alpha-acids'
complexation functionality towards transition metal
ions such as iron and copper, they can block or
attenuate oxidative pathways of the Maillard reaction
and suppress the generation of reactive oxygen
species, thereby preventing oxidative degradation
of leucine to 3-methylbutanal. Second, once
hydroxyl radicals are formed, they can act directly as
antioxidants and suppressing free radical reactions with
leucine again, which can yield its corresponding
aldehyde. Other aldehydes may show the same
behavior and response to the presence to hop alpha-acids.

2-Furfural in Wort-Like Model Solutions

USA & Japan: US barley farmers finding a growing high-value market in Japan
|
Japanese diets may not match those of U.S. farmers, but the push for healthy foods in Japan is creating a small and growing high-value market for U.S. food barley, agroprofessional.com reported on June 16.
“With Japan’s health-conscious public, the country is an excellent market for high beta-glucan U.S. barley,” said Tommy Hamamoto, U.S. Grains Council (USGC) director in Japan. “Promoting barley as an alternative grain for the Japanese consumer has led to steadily increasing imports, increased consumer awareness and contracted sales.”
High beta-glucan barley has heart-healthy properties that may reduce cholesterol, lower the risk of heart disease and reduce glycemic index, according to U.S. research. These nutritional properties make U.S. varieties of food barley attractive for Japanese food producers who use the grain to produce shochu, a Japanese distilled liquor and beer, as well as tea and cereal.
U.S. food barley exports to Japan are worth twice the average price of feed barley, but the marketplace is very competitive. Most of the food barley consumed in the country is either grown locally or sourced from cheaper Australian supplies. The terms of the Trans-Pacific Partnership would have established an escalating tariff rate quota (TRQ) for food barley and malt in addition to eliminating the

USA, FL: Descarga Brewing Company expected to come to North Miami in September
|
North Miami will soon get its first brewery. Descarga Brewing Company is expected to open in September at 12355 NE 13th Ave., co-owner Manny Jannes says.
The 2,800-square-foot space will contain a three-barrel production system and a 600-square-foot tasting room. The brewery will offer seating for 60 people, including 20 seats in an outdoor beer garden.
With costs being so high for construction, Jannes was able to persuade North Miami officials to assist him with the brewery. On June 13, Jannes received unanimous approval from the city's Community Redevelopment Agency board for a $150,000 business attraction grant.
The grant is awarded to entrepreneurs the city thinks will attract business to the area and usually matches only 50 percent of the costs. This grant, however, will fund 67 percent of the costs, estimated to be $235,106.
It wasn't difficult to persuade the city, considering the rapid growth of the craft beer industry locally and statewide. Jannes provided several facts and figures in his grant package and argued how microbreweries tend to stimulate economic growth in the communities surrounding them. According to Jannes, "It's going to keep people in the city because everyone is going to other cities for a good time."
Even better for Jannes is

USA, MD: Hysteria Brewing Company plans to open brewery and taproom on July 1
|
The slogan for Columbia’s newest beer producer, Hysteria Brewing Company, is “The Mad Pursuit.” It’s an homage, according to marketing director Zachary Michel, to “the mad scientists who are constantly driving forward to discover something”, the Baltimore Sun reported on June 14
Variety and experimentation are two driving forces for Hysteria, whose brews have been sold only at beer festivals in Central Maryland for the past month and a half.
That changes at noon July 1, when Hysteria plans to open its brewery and taproom to the public at 9570 Berger Road, said Michel.
Hysteria’s owners are Richard Gue and two silent partners, Geoff Lopes and Jordan Baney, said Michel. The three friends began working together in 2011, when they launched the Vaper’s Knoll, a Columbia-based e-cigarette flavor company. They were also homebrewers, so when it came time to try a new business, it wasn’t hard to decide, said Michel, who is also an assistant brewer at Hysteria.
“It’s one of those ideas you have in the back of your head whenever you brew your first batch of good beer,” said Michel, a Bel Air native.
The taproom, which will seat 85 to 100 people, will feature 11 taps of Hysteria beers and a house-made

USA, PA: The Rusty Gold Brewing Co. launching in Canonsburg on June 15
|
As an antique dealer and house flipper and contractor, E.J. Kleckner is all about, “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.”
“But,” he says with a grin, “that sounds too long for a brewery name.”
And so when it came time for the young businessman to dub the brewpub he’s opening on June 15 on the main drag in downtown Canonsburg in Washington County, he came up with a shorter way to say it: “Rusty Gold”, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported.
The Rusty Gold Brewing Co. — in an old brick storefront on West Pike Street — is decorated, outside and in, with old barn wood and corrugated metal. The early 1800s barnwood-topped bar is made from doors from a tear-down farmhouse. Tables and seating, too, are made from everything from barrels to church pews.
“All this was built on site — custom,” says Mr. Kleckner, who himself used a 1-inch stippling brush to hand paint the rust on the bulkhead over the bar that was built to look like an old train trestle.
The original white-and-black tile floor and bronze-painted tin ceiling (from the building’s 1920s roots as a bakery, before it was a market, pool hall and then 1950s-themed Toy’s My Way Cafe) are

USA, NC: Innovation Brewing to add another brewery at the GSMR Dillsboro Depot Complex
|
The Great Smoky Mountains Railroad (GSMR) has announced that Innovation Brewing will be the new tenant of the GSMR Dillsboro Depot Complex, the Smoky Mountain News reported on June 14.
Many locals enjoy the variety of Innovation’s 30-plus beers or ginger ale made from fresh organic ginger at their current location in Sylva, but as a major testament to their success, seating and parking have become limited night after night, especially on their outdoor patio overlooking Scotts Creek. This love for Innovation by locals and tourist alike is what initially inspired this next step.
Train passengers repeatedly request Innovation’s beer on the popular Fontana Trestle Train featuring BBQ & Brews, where GSMR partners with local breweries to showcase their beers during an evening train ride to the Fontana Trestle. Brewers are able to meet one-on-one with passengers and answer their questions and describe their process to the final product they are sampling. Innovation Brewing’s St. Patrick’s Day BBQ & Brews was a huge success, thus solidifying the need for expansion.
Innovation will keep its primary location at 414 West Main Street in Sylva, but plan on expanding their sour and barrel aged production as well as a new pilot batch system at

USA, PA: Erie Brewing Co. moves to new 20,000-square-foot brewery and brew pub
|
Erie Brewing Co.’s new address is Harborcreek Township, GoErie.com reported on June 14.
The company has moved from rented space in Erie’s Veshecco Industrial Park to a 20,000-square-foot brewery and brew pub on Knowledge Parkway at Station Road, near Interstate 90.
The new facility will open on June 15 with a variety of beers and wines on tap and food available from John’s Wildwood Pizzeria. The popular Edinboro-based pizzeria opened a second location at the brewery last week.
“It’s been hectic, but it’s exciting,” Erie Brewing owner Rob Lowther said on June 13 of the move and opening. “We’re hosting a private event, our third, tonight to allow our people to practice interacting with customers. So far, everything’s gone pretty well.”
Visitors are astounded by the views, both of the brewery through huge interior glass windows and of Lake Erie in the distance from an upstairs patio, General Manager Giselle Main said. The brewery was built into a hillside with a mezzanine level with an outdoor porch facing the lake.
The brew pub also has a bar; tasting tables; booths; private party rooms; a second mezzanine bar, and a second ground-level patio. Many features were custom built, including the bars, woodwork, steel signs and a
