Scientific Digest
MORE ABOUT THE HOP CREEP
ABSTRACT
By now this phenomenon is known by many craft brewers.
Dry hopping leads to over-attenuation, but why?
Over-attenuation of dry-hopped cask ales was already
reported by Dr. Horace Brown over 100 years ago, citing
that "dry-hopping induces an earlier and more persistent
cask fermentation in beer". However the small percentage
of endogenous sugars in hops was reported to be
insufficient for the extent of refermentation. Already
back then, observations led researchers to conclude that
hops contain a "diastase" able to break down residual,
nonfermentable beer dextrins as seen by the production
of reducing sugars in dry-hopped beers. Now 100 years
later the team of Prof Shellhammer invested time and resources
to demystify the hop creep in detail. They found
that the total activity of alpha- and beta-amylase in hops is well
below that of malted barley, but within the range of plant
amylase activities reported in literature. To investigate
factors that may influence the rate and extent of refermentation
as a result of dry-hopping with Cascade hops,
a set of conditions were explored including dry-hopping
rate, temperature, duration, and separately, exposure
time to hop material. Glucose concentrations correlated
with hop dosing amounts and rose steadily throughout
the 15 days of dry-hopping. There was no change in
the carbohydrate composition of beer dry-hopped with
hops that had been autoclaved at 121 degrees Celcius. The results
suggest the effect of enzyme activity was dependent
upon exposure of beer to hop material and that shorter
dry-hopping time with hop removal, for example through
filtration, may significantly reduce continued enzyme activity
in finished. In this regard the collaboration of hops
and yeast can turn into a diabolic pack!

UK: Molson Coors acquires London brewery Hop Stuff
|
Carling owner Molson Coors has expanded its craft beer offering by snapping up London brewery Hop Stuff from administration, Yahoo! Finance reported on July 12.
The brewery, which was founded by James Yeomans in 2013, hired administrators KPMG after it struggled to stay afloat amid “tough financial headwinds”.
The deal will see Molson Coors acquire the brewery – which makes a range of IPAs, pilsners, porters and stouts – as well as its brands and taprooms.
Molson Coors said the brewery was “too good not to exist” so made a move to buy Hop Stuff after discovering its future was under threat.
The acquisition is part of Molson Coors’ strategy to make its portfolio more premium, which also saw it snap up UK cider brand Aspall in 2018.
Hop Stuff’s administration comes more than two years after it raised £744,000 from crowdfunding investors, who will not receive a penny back from their investment as a result of the rescue deal.
Mr Yeomans wrote a letter to investors apologising that they will be left empty handed, explaining that a full sale of the shareholding was “commercially unviable”.
In the letter, he said: “I am so sorry. I wanted so much to turn the passion you have for Hop

Rwanda: Leading brewer Bralirwa plans to cut imports of raw materials
|
More than 100km from Kigali, near Akagera National Park fence and on the shores of Lake Ihema in Kayonza District, is a green farm jointly owned by local brewer Bralirwa, and Minimex, a maize processing plant in a joint initiative known as Bramin Ltd, The New Times reported on July 14.
With maize being the main ingredient in most of Bralirwa’s beer products, the maize grits are produced by Minimex. It used to import most of the raw materials which made the brewer engage in various projects to bridge the gap.
According to Stanislas Nsabimana, the Deputy Farm Manager, maize has been the priority for the farm standing on 165 hectares this season with other crops.
Beans were planted on 23 hectares, potatoes on 26 hectares, sorghum on 13 hectares, while 37 hectares were used to grow different types of vegetables; including pepper, onions, aubergines and tomatoes, among others.
The project’s total land mass is 650 hectares, but this season they have grown various crops on 337 hectares, using irrigation.
The preparation of the land and full installation of the irrigation schemes between 2010 and 2014 cost Rwf3.2 billion.
A pumping station was installed at the lake, with a machine that has capacity of pumping 580

Australia: Barley exports down 2% in May
|
Australia exported 302,334 tonnes of barley in May, down 2 per cent from 309,408 tonnes in April, with bulk shipments to Japan, Kuwait and Thailand bolstering demand in the face of reduced buying from China, according to the latest export data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
Australian barley exports for May came in at 390 thousand tonnes, which is marginally higher than April figures.
“Our barley exports are winding down as procurement of volume in Western Australia and South Australia becomes harder and harder as stocks become tight in the back end of the season,” Market Check head of strategy Nick Crundall said.
“We also naturally see a diminishing export program as we progress through the season.”
Japan took the greatest tonnage of any barley export destination in May.
“This volume pales in comparison with China, as it is still four times bigger than the next destination.”
