Kirin Brewery on the threshold of a new millenium

The Japanese beer market is regarded as one of the most competitive in the world. Whereas some twelve years ago, the launch of Asahi Super Dry revolutionised the market, beers with a reduced malt content (Happoshu) are now making the running. Kirin’s activities are not limited to the domestic market, the brewery is extremely active on a global scale.

Energy and fluid factors in heating and boiling of beer wort

Nowadays, modern breweries commonly use one of three different processes for wort boiling. As well as atmospheric, air-free boiling and air-free boiling using mechanical or thermal vapour compression at evaporation temperatures of 99 to 100°C, many breweries use low-pressure boiling (LPB) at temperatures from 102 to 105°C (ps = 1.09 - 1.21 bar). In the very recent past, dynamic low-pressure boiling has additionally proven itself in many breweries to have technological advantages.

An open marriage - The brewing industry and international relations

Globalisation - the prophecy becomes reality. Geographic integration, specialisation or "dressing-up" for sale as the brewers’ answers to the progressive fusion of the markets.

The EU beer market in 1998Hamlet should have played Monopol

Product innovations in the food market Sensory methods to ensure a cost effective market success

Why does an individual consumer choose a certain product? Even today, this question cannot be generally answered. It might be possible to find the answer in specific cases, but at a relatively high cost. Informations and estimations about success or failure of a new product on the market fluctuate. But the trend is clear: Only a few product innovations are able to survive their first year of market presence.

Many of them can be booked in the ”flops” category. How expensive this "strategy" is, can only be estimated in isolated cases

What is innovative?

How can innovation achieve more success at the lowest possible cost? For this question, a few essential points must be clarified in advance.

The problems begin with the concept of innovation.g.
