36th EBC Congress · Ljubljana · 14 – 18 May 2017 3

WELCOME BY THE EBC PRESIDENT

On behalf of the European Brewery Convention it is a pleasure to welcome you to the 36th EBC congress in Ljubljana.

This EBC congress is set to take place 14 to 18 May 2017. Our congress will be held at the Cankarjev Dom conferencing facilities in direct vicinty of the historical part of Ljubljana.

We are happy to report that the venue chosen provides an excellent setting for our technical, technological and scientifi c lectures and presentations.

As in previous congresses, there will be a good balance between the techni-cal lectures and social programme. Based on requests from various sources throughout the past few years have led us to reduce the overall number of speakers slightly; however, the number of posters has stayed unchanged.

With my experience of the EBC congress 2015 in Porto in mind, I very much support the initiatve of the Local Organising Committee to offer a "broad-band" technical tour on Thursday, 18 May, to all delegates. This means com-bining a visit to the IHPS, the Slovenian hop research and brewing institute, to the Laško brewery all in one day. This approach will ensure maximum exposure of key components of the Slovenian brewing sector to delegates of the EBC congress.

No visit of Ljubljana would be complete without a visit to the city’s fl agship brewery, the Union. The brewery combines state-of-the-art technology housed in a historic building. On the same site, the brewery housed a won-derful museum, displaying "breweriana" and other beer-related items, such as drinking vessels and early advertising of Union beers.

With my best wishes for a superb congress,

Tiago M. Brandão

HR Director Unicer Bebidas SA and EBC President

Journey into the heart of the Slovenian beer brewing

In just one hour on the way from Ljubljana to the heart of Slovenian beer brewing, one may contemplate all of Slovenia’s diversity and beauty. From urban architecture to the silence and tranquillity of the Posavje region mountains, the immense green and plains of the Savinja Valley, where Slovenian hops grow. This is followed by a short journey through the third largest Slovenian city, Celje, on a path trapped between mountains, where the Savinja river carved its riverbed.

The legendary Slovenian Pivovarna Laško brewery

The land of immense green nature has been hiding the birthplace of the fi rst and largest Slovenian brewery - Pivovarna Laško - since 1825. Its products have always personifi ed a tradition of top quality, made possible by the clear mountain water, an excellent local hops variety, carefully selected barley, the latest technology and most importantly, the unwavering love for beer. The most legendary of them all is the Laško Zlatorog beer, with its typical fl avour given to it by a decades old recipe. This very beer helped write the story about the legendary Slovenian beer, which shows its strong character time and time again.

Institute for Beer Brewing and Hop Growing of Žalec

With its expert, research, educational and counselling services, the institute contributes signifi cantly to the development of the Slovenian hop growing and other agricultural activities. It is one of only three such professional establishments in the world, founded in 1952. A team of experts provides sound foundations for future generations of Slovenian agriculture and hop growing with great commitment, excitement and sincere love. Their main task in the area of researching hops is to improve varieties of hops which are adapted to the local environment. The team will offer a few samples to visitors of the EBC convention as a gift.

European attraction – Green Gold Fountain

When visiting Žalec, the centre of the lower Savinja Valley, a view opens up to the unique tourist attraction, the fi rst beer fountain in Europe. The Green Gold Fountain is designed as hop umbels in two semi-circles, fountains: a beer fountain and a water fountain. A unique idea, a history of hop-growing tradition and technological perfection of beer pouring is what attracts visitors. Visitors can purchase a special micro-chipped beer mug and pour a beer of their choosing. The beer mug was designed by the world-renowned designer Oskar Kogoj and may be taken home. The beer fountain only offers beer containing quality Slovenian hops from the Savinja Valley.

Eco-Museum of Hop-Growing and Brewing Industry in Žalec

Eco-Museum of Hop-Growing and Brewing Industry in Slovenia offers a walk through the history of hops in the lower Savin-ja Valley, also known as the Green Gold Valley. The exhibition areas provide an interactive presentation of hop growing and beer brewing in Slovenia through history, and at the same time visitors may also view the process of beer brewing and taste the local beer Kukec.
