Brewery news UK: Just one extra pint a month in a pub can push the beer industry back into growth - CAMRA
Beer drinkers in the UK buying just one extra pint a month in the pub would be all that it takes to push the British beer industry back into growth after years of steady decline, lobby group CAMRA has said.

CAMRA said that 38% of pub goers were visiting the pub less often than they did 12 months ago and that beer sales are suffering - despite real ale out-performing the rest of the market – with the total volume of beer sold in the UK during 2012 standing at around 7.8 mln pints, compared to more than 8.2 mln in 2011 and over 8.4 mln in 2010.

The pressure group said the effect was clear to see, with 26 pubs a week now closing in the UK.

Mike Benner, CAMRA Chief Executive, said: “Around 32 mln people in the UK enjoy a beer at least once a year, but the number of people drinking in pubs has been on the decline, contributing to an overall fall in beer sales. But with the price of a pint getting a much needed duty cut in this year’s budget there’s never been a better time to get down the pub. Just a pint a ...More info on site


Brewery news Japan & Malaysia: Asahi Super Dry performance in Malaysia ahead of its brewer’s targets
The sight of Asahi Super Dry taps is common in most bars in major cities around Malaysia today, as the brand has experienced strong double-digit growth since its launch in December 2011, The Star reported on August 16.

Carlsberg Malaysia marketing director Juliet Yap said distribution for the premium beer, under the Carlsberg umbrella has been on a steady rise, as it is positioned at pubs, clubs, hotels, hypermarkets, supermarkets and also coffee shops.

Carlsberg has an agreement with Asahi Breweries to brew and distribute the latter’s beer in Malaysia.

“Asahi Super Dry has been very well received and its volume and distribution is ahead of our target.

“The distribution channel for Asahi is quite wide and we have gained strong acceptance in Penang, Johor Baru, Kuantan, Kota Kinabalu and the Klang Valley.

“The beer has caught on among the mid to higher-income group, between the ages of 25 to 34 and it is now the fastest growing premium beer in Malaysia,” said Yap.

Carlsberg Malaysia has a portfolio of international beer brands such as Carlsberg, Kronenbourg 1664, Corona Extra and Budweiser.

The flagship product, from Asahi Breweries Ltd, a leading brewery and soft drinks based in Tokyo, Japan, holds a significant share of the Japanese beer ...More info on site


Brewery news Rwanda: Heineken’s Bralirwa sees 9% fall in H1 profit
Rwandan brewer Bralirwa's first-half pretax profit fell 9 percent due in part to negative foreign exchange effects and rising depreciation charges, Reuters reported on August 14.

Bralirwa, 75 percent-owned by Heineken, said profit eased to 10.36 billion francs ($16 million) from 11.36 billion francs in the first half.

Revenue rose 2.6 percent to 37 billion francs.

Costs rose due to negative foreign exchange effects while depreciation charges on the brewery and soft drinks operations also increased, the company said in a statement, without providing details.

It said its earnings per share fell to 15.06 francs from 15.43 francs in first half 2012.

Bralirwa is Rwanda's oldest brewery with rights to produce brands such as Guinness and Amstel. It also produces branded soft drinks such as Coca-Cola.

Brewery news USA: MillerCoors planning high alcohol content beer
MillerCoors LLC will introduce a high alcohol content beer, Miller Fortune, and a hard cider targeting men, Smith & Forge Hard Cider, in the first half of 2014, The Business Journal reported on August 15.

A MillerCoors spokeswoman confirmed the brands will hit shelves next year.

Miller Fortune, at 6.9 percent alcohol by volume, aims to compete with Anheuser-Busch InBev’s Bud Light Platinum, a 6 percent ABV beer introduced last year, AdAge reported. Those are both higher than typical domestics.

Barley news Canada: Malting barley PROs for 2013-14 lower this month
CWB on August 15 updated Pool Return Outlooks (PROs) for 2013-14 Early Delivery and Annual Pools.

Compared to the last PROs released in mid-June, projected malt barley pool returns are C$10 to C$15 per tonne lower, both at C$300/tonne this month.

Malting barley prices have been moving lower on the back of bearish developments offshore and at home. The European winter barley harvest was quite good and the European spring malting barley harvest has been good so far. Australia has received some beneficial rainfall in key barley growing regions, and western Canadian malting barley prospects look much improved compared to last year quality and yield-wise, CWB commented.

PROs are provided as price indications based on current nearby and forward markets. They are calculated basis track west coast or Thunder Bay ports, net of all projected operating costs, including CWB's pool management fee. Volatile market conditions may affect the PROs significantly. PROs are not price guarantees and should not be confused with initial payments. Farmers should consider entering pool contracts as an excellent risk-management tool that provides a solid return from the entire pooling period.

To calculate pool returns backed off to the farm, farmers should factor in country ...More info on site
