ABSTRACT
Boomerang, Gaia, Country and Jazz are the names
of 4 new hop varieties coming out of the Czech
breeding program. They were developed from UK and continental European breeding material and
characterized with the classical flavour profiles of
herbal, woody and citrus notes. Boomerang and Gaia
have high oil and alpha contents (1.5-3ml/100g and 10-
15% alpha). Country and Jazz have lower oil and alpha
contents (0.4-1.5ml/100g and 3-7% alpha). Welcome,
and good luck to our new friends. Competition is high!

USA: Miller Lite picks up market share and posts sales and volume growth in four weeks to May 12
|
Along with picking up market share, the Miller Lite brand posted sales and volume increases during the four weeks ending May 12, according to a post on the MillerCoors Behind the Beer blog.
The post says Miller Lite sales dollars increased 0.9 percent and volume increased 0.3 percent, citing data from Nielsen. The brand’s market share also increased 0.6 points.
“I don’t want to make too much of a four-week trend, but I’m really encouraged by the momentum we have for this brand,” said Anup Shah, vice president for the Miller family of brands. “While we have been outpacing the segment for a long time, the narrative was always that we were gaining share of a declining category. Here we’re outpacing the total industry, which is a great sign.”
The Behind the Beer blog attributed the gains to increasing volume in the dollar store and convenience store channels and outperforming the industry, despite a decline, at grocery stores.
MillerCoors, the U.S. business of parent company Molson Coors, has been challenged in recent years by declining volumes as consumers shift away from big beer brands towards craft beer, wine and spirits. The company is pushing to achieve flat overall volumes this year and total volume

India: United Breweries launches Amstel beer in India
|
United Breweries Ltd (UBL), the maker of Kingfisher beer, on May 24 launched Amstel in India from its Dutch parent Heineken NV’s stable, to take on Carlsberg Elephant in the super-premium strong beer segment, Livemint reported.
The company will now have four beers in the super-premium beer market—two mild (Heineken and Kingfisher Ultra) and two strong (Kingfisher Ultra Max and Amstel). The target is to take UBL’s market share in the super-premium beer segment to 50% over the next two years with these four brands, the company’s marketing head Samar Singh Sheikhawat said.
The company estimates that it currently has an about 20% market share in the super-premium beer segment.
Amstel will first be available in Karnataka and Pondicherry. In the next quarter, it will be launched in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, followed by most markets in the west in the following quarter and then the north in the third quarter.
This is only the second brand from Heineken’s portfolio, apart from the Dutch company’s eponymous beer label, launched by UBL that will be bottled in India. Amstel will be brewed and bottled locally out of a brewery near Mysuru in Karnataka.
Amstel, which has its roots in Amsterdam, will be priced at par with

Canada: Barley use expected to increase by 7% this season
|
For 2017-18, Canada’s total domestic barley use is forecast to increase by 7% to 6.298 mln tonnes with higher feed and industrial use, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada said in its May report.
Total barley exports are forecast to increase by 19% to 2.775 mln tonnes due to lower world barley supplies.
Canada’s barley carry-out stocks in the current season are forecast to decrease by 51% to 1.1 million tonnes and remain below 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.
The Statistics Canada March 31 Stock Report confirmed lower stocks of Canadian barley with a decrease of 26%, the bulk of the decrease was on the Prairie Provinces where farm stocks were down 29% from 2017. Overall, total Canadian barley stocks are estimated to be lower than the previous three and five-year averages. In western Canada, farm stocks decreased in all three provinces. The higher feeding rate was due to the smaller forage crops across the Prairie Provinces and the cold winter. In the first half of May, the Lethbridge barley price had traded

Australia: Barley prices expected to remain firm
|
Barley prices are expected to remain firm in coming months with Australian livestock producers resigned to a longer period of feeding, The West Australian reported on May 24.
WA new-season feed barley feed-grain prices hovered at A$280 a tonne this week, having rallied by more than A$20 per tonne in the past six weeks as buyers step up efforts to secure supplies.
New-season malt barley hovered at A$300 this week, up from around A$285 this time last year and A$270 last harvest.
Plum Grove executive director Tony Smith said Chinese and Australian feed demand was driving the price increase.
“Australian prices to China are not very competitive at the moment but if you get dry conditions around the country the prices will remain strong,” he said.
Mercado grain analyst Andrew Whitelaw said rumblings of a large barley plant this year had not stifled price.
Mr Whitelaw also said China and US trade tariff discussions had helped boost the attractiveness of Australian barley.
