Hopsteiner
In crop 2008 we showed the variations in the contribution of hop oils to beer depending on the crop year. As a representative hop aroma substance we have chosen Linalool, which correlates rather well with the sonsory impression of a hoppy aroma in beer.

We presented a first estimate of crop 2009 hop production at drinktec. At that time there was still some uncertainty regarding the actual crop size and alpha contents of crop 2009 hops. The figures are now clearer. Based on the updated crop size of 111.483 mt of hops there will be a total of approx. 9,942 mt of alpha acid available for the coming year.

At the Drinktec 2009 we invited visitors to taste two Pilsner type beers. About 300 people assessed our beers, brewed using 50 % each of the new aroma varieties Saphir and Smaragd. Hop dosage, based on alpha-acid content, was as follows: …

There are several options available for brewers to produce beers with hop aroma.

Spring 2008 witnessed an acreage increase that had not been seen for over thirty years.

A prerequisite for the production of lightstable beers is the use of reduced hop products, iso-alpha acids which have been converted into rho-, tetra- and hexa-hydro-iso-alpha acids.
Hopsteiner
Increased demand for hops worldwide for many years has resulted in the breeding of hop plants and consequent development of new varieties with ever increasing alpha acid concentrations. This trend was accompanied by the introduction of 2 new classifications, one called “High-Alpha varieties”, the other called “Super-High-Alpha varieties”.
