Some European hop producers give beer the citrus, floral and fruit aromas which have become so popular among UK drinkers.
Beer quality is on a steady decline and is likely to cost more at the bar because of climate change, a new study has found. Experts said with falling hop yields, British and European drinkers should expect to see the cost of beer increase in the coming years. Researchers highlighted how the increase in agricultural droughts will directly impact the amount of hops grown and the quality. Hops give beer its distinctive taste and smell and come in many different varieties.
Britain would experience these declines, while the strongest falls in hop production would be felt in Slovenia, Portugal and Spain, the report stated. Some parts of Europe produce the citrus, floral and fruit aromas which are popular in many beers in the UK. The authors said farmers will have to find ways 'to adapt' to limit the impact of the heating globe on the crops.
