Climate crisis will change taste of beer and make it more expensive, say scientists
- Scientists warn that global warming is impacting the quality and taste of beer, as hotter and drier summers lead to a decline in European hops, ultimately making beer more expensive.
- Agricultural droughts due to climate change are projected to have a significant impact on hop production and quality. Farmers are working to adapt their practices, but further investment and expanding the area used for growing hops may be necessary to compensate for the future decline.
- The increase in temperatures caused by greenhouse gas emissions is expected to cross the crucial 1.5C barrier in the next five-to-seven years, further exacerbating the decline in hop yields and potentially jeopardizing hop growing profitability in some areas.
