The supply of spring malting barley in Europe will be significantly smaller this year than in other years. In certain regions the acreage was reduced. Overall, qualities do not meet the expectations.

On August 15 and 16, RMI Analytics conducted a malting barley crop tour in South Central Saskatchewan visiting commercial fields, trial plots, grain elevators and silos near Saskatoon. During the tour the barley harvest was just starting but the weather was holding up progress with heavy showers occurring on a daily basis. Crops that were planted early in the seeding period are more advanced and will be harvested in the coming days, but some later seeded barley is still up to three weeks away from harvest.

The 3rd German Hop Convention will take place this year in the Hallertau, immediately after the hop harvest, from October 11th to 13th. This event is the third of its kind and has been conceived with a view to outreaching to the international brewing communities and craft beer brewers. It is organised by the Association of German Hop Growers [EV] and HVG Hopfenverwertungsgesellschaft e.G. BRAUWELT International spoke with Otmar Weingarten, Managing Director of the Association of German Hop Growers [EV] to find out more about the event.

Eleven selected flavour compounds in late hopped and dry hopped beers brewed with single hop varieties have been investigated. On the basis of the results, a comparison of varietal differences of hop-derived flavour compounds among eighteen hop varieties, correlations between certain monoterpene alcohols and their derivatives and the effect of hopping procedure on flavour compositions in beers were discussed. The following article summarises the research results which have already been published in BrewingScience, 2016, issue 1: January/February.

Some craft brewers who dry hop, experience beer with poor foam. To determine if dry hopping reduces foam, a beer containing 44 ppm of iso-alpha acids had its foam measured using the Nibem Foam Stability Tester before and after dry hopping.
