Scientific Digest
THE YEAST TAKES IT ALL!
ABSTRACT
Beta-myrcene is a potent but also very volatile hop
aroma compound that can contribute to hop flavours
with "herbaceous", "resinous", "green", "balsamic", "fresh
hops". Too high concentrations of myrcene sometimes are
considered unpleasant in regards to flavour. A German
team worked with the hop variety Mosaic with different
yeast strains to see where the myrcene actually ends up.
They confirmed the release of hop aroma compounds
during fermentation in the gas phase with increasing
amounts at higher fermentation temperatures, and were
also able to show that the yeast basically absorbs all of
the myrcene with no possibilities to redissolving it in beer
again. Whereas other hop aroma compounds such as
linalool are not influenced significantly by the yeast.

Italy: Number of craft breweries grows by 535% between 2008 and 2017
|
Italy’s craft beer sector is booming with the number of craft breweries rising by 535% between 2008 and 2017, a report by the Italian farmers' organization Coldiretti based on data by the National Statistics Institute shows.
According to the organization, the number of craft breweries in the country increased from 113 in 2008 to 718 last year, with the majority having been launched by young people aged below 35.
Lombardy hosts the majority of Italy’s craft breweries (245), followed by Veneto (134), Piedmont (127), Tuscany (112), and Emilia-Romagna (111).
With the expansion of domestic craft brewing, British and German brands have lost positions in Italy, with their imports declining by 79% and 31%, respectively, Coldiretti said.
The nation’s annual per capita beer consumption is currently estimated at 31.5 litres.

Sri Lanka: Beer consumption increases following tax reduction in last budget

Beer consumption in Sri Lanka has increased by 12% after the government reduced taxes on beer in the last budget, News1st said on February 21.
The National Authority on Tobacco and Alcohol said this fact was revealed in the data collected by the Excise Department. Hence, beer’s share of total volume of alcohol consumed in the country is 18%.
The National Authority on Tobacco and Alcohol predicts the percentage to rise further, owing to the current situation.
Accordingly, a report on the use of beer is expected to be submitted to the president and the health minister.

UK: Battle for beer market domination likely to be fought in low alcohol sector over the next decade
|
The ingredients contained in the longest surviving beer recipe found in a nearly 4,000-year-old Mesopotamian poem are essentially unchanged today.
The Hymn to Ninkasi, the Sumerian goddess of beer, breaks down the brewing process so that it can be repeated by subsequent generations. However, the brewing giants of today are risking the wrath of the ancient gods with a major alteration to the finished product – removing the alcohol, the Telegraph reported.
This is where the battle for domination is likely to be fought over the next decade and beyond.
Growth in conventional beer sales is stalling around the world as an increasing number of people become more focused on health and well-being. Zero or low-alcohol beer could be a saving grace not only for calorie intakes but also the finances of big beer.
At the moment, it is a fairly niche market that makes up just a small part of sales at the brewing giants such as Budweiser brewer Anheuser-Busch InBev, Heineken and Carlsberg, but these behemoths are starting to up their efforts.
AB InBev, the biggest of all the brewers, aims to make a fifth of its sales from low or no-alcohol beer by 2025, investing in new products such as Budweiser Prohibition,

Canada: Total domestic barley use forecast to remain unchanged this season
|
For 2017-18, Canada’s total domestic barley use is forecast to remain unchanged (at 5.888 mln tonnes) as lower feed use is offset by higher industrial use, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada said in its February report.
Total barley exports are forecast to increase by 14% to 2.65 mln tonnes due to steady total supply and lower world supplies.
Barley carry-out stocks are forecast to decrease by 25% to 1.6 mln tonnes and remain slightly above the previous three and five-year averages.
The Lethbridge in-store feed barley price is forecast to increase due to the tight total barley supplies and the decline in the supply of other domestic feed grain substitutes.
As of December 31, Canadian barley stocks were 6% lower than 2016 although they were still 2% higher than the previous five-year average. Commercial stocks increased by nearly 50% from 2016 indicating a faster pace into the elevator and end-user system. For the main barley-producing region, the Prairie Provinces, on-farm stocks are down 8% from last year but are still 3% higher than the previous five-year average. Manitoba showed the largest year-to-year decline as corn production continues to expand in that province.
For the past two months the Lethbridge cash barley price

South Korea: Diageo toasts success of low-alcohol W Signature 12 whiskey
|
Diageo Korea recorded solid growth in the low-alcohol whiskey market in the past three months on the rising popularity of its W Signature 12, which launched last October, the Korea JoongAng Daily reported on February 20.
The Korean unit of the British alcohol producer said on February 19 that its market share in the low-alcohol whiskey market rose by 6.2 percentage points in the past three months.
Its market share stands at 32.9 percent as of January, the company’s highest since it entered the niche market back in 2015 to diversify its alcohol portfolio.
The low-alcohol whiskey market is considered an alternative to the traditional whiskey market, where high alcohol levels and expensive price tags turn off younger drinkers.
Diageo Korea launched W Ice in 2015, followed by W Signature 17 in 2016 and W Signature 12 last year.
Since W Signature 12 was launched last October, Diageo Korea’s market share in the category jumped from 26.7 percent to 32.9 percent.
