Brewery news Canada, ON: Waterloo Brewing reports record annual EBITDA for 2019
Waterloo Brewing Ltd. ("Waterloo Brewing" or the "company"), Ontario's largest Canadian-owned brewery, on April 9 released results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended January 31, 2020.

Waterloo Brewing posted record annual EBITDA of C$12 million on net revenue of C$60.3 million. EBITDA for the fourth quarter was up 18.7% from prior year, to C$3.4 million.

"Our business has significant momentum and we thank our valued consumers for their continued support," said George Croft, President, and Chief Executive Officer Waterloo Brewing, "From our owner brands to our co-pack business we are extremely pleased with our industry-leading performance and growth in fiscal 2020. In this past fiscal year, we produced a step-change in both the operating and market performance of the business. In each of the past four quarters, we have been able to deliver growth in both volume and margin which resulted in an outstanding +19% EBITDA growth versus the prior year. As a growing company, in a mature category, that performance is simply remarkable and a testament to the drive and passion of everyone who works here at Waterloo Brewing."

Brewery news USA, TX: Vector Brewing now open for curbside pickup
Veronica and Craig Bradley can’t catch a break. They left their jobs to open Vector Brewing at the newly remodeled Lakeridge Village, then the federal government shut down in January of 2019 and they lost access to their loan through the Small Business Administration. Friends donated more than $12,000 via an online fund to keep their project progressing, and they made plans for the VIP opening of their brewpub – smack dab in the middle of a pandemic, the Advocate Media reported on April 8.

But COVID-19 is no match for the Bradleys.

The Lake Highlands couple began taking online orders for curbside pickup on April 4 and were inundated with requests for pizza and beer.

“That’s no CVS receipt,” joked a photo caption they posted to social media, “those are orders bombarding our kitchen on Saturday night. You animals blew through 700 pounds of pizza dough and nearly 1500 crowlers!”

To accommodate demand, the Vector crew has stepped up production and streamlined the order and pick-up process to prepare for the coming weekend. All orders are taken online beginning at 4 p.m. and they ask picker-uppers to place order numbers on windshields for easy curbside delivery. If you prefer to pick up from ...More info on site


Brewery news USA, OH: Female-led Chaffee’s Brewhouse eyeing opening later this year
A new brewhouse opening in Tipp City is set to show off the best craft beer that the community has to offer, Dayton.com reported on April 9.

Tipp City residents Lisa Smith-Richards and Chrissy Lesher are the founders and owners of Chaffee’s Brewhouse, which, when it opens later this year, will serve craft beer, cocktails, wine and light fare.

The brewhouse will be located in a portion of the old stomping grounds of the Pink Ribbon Girls on South 2nd Street in downtown Tipp City. And, depending on when the coronavirus pandemic subsides and Ohio’s stay-at-home orders are lifted, the brewhouse could open as early as June.

“I think it'll be really neat,” Smith-Richards said. “We didn't want anything huge. We really want to be a place where people can go for happy hour.”

The pair also owns the Hop Yard at Lock 16, a three-acre hop farm cultivating Cascade, Centennial, and Zeus varieties, and Miami Valley Draft Services. Both businesses are sure to play a role in the new brewhouse. Eventually, the pair would like to add a small brewing operation to the brewhouse, which would allow them to utilize the hops that they grow in their hop yard to brew beer. ...More info on site


Brewery news USA, IA: Allerton Brewing Company set to launch in Independence this fall
A meeting at an Independence home brew club is now set to snap a century-long dry spell, KGAN TV reported on April 9.

Lucas Gray and Brandon Mikel met at a club gathering in Independence - and now the two home brewers are putting their passion for pilsners into plans for Allerton Brewing Company. It's set to open this fall at 110 First Street East just next to the Wapsipinicon River - and will be the first brewery to open in Buchanan County since Prohibition.

"We knew the history a little bit - looking at the history of the town," Gray says. It's awesome being able to bring one back after all this time. We're excited."

The COVID-19 pandemic isn't throwing much of a wrench into things, either.

"We haven't run into any major roadblocks yet," Mikel says. "Some of our equipment we were supposed to pick up this week is getting postponed - but we're still in the middle of construction, so we don't really need it right now."

The partners are even settling into the space they were hoping for from the start - with a deck in the back that overlooks the river, the dam, and the old mill on the other ...More info on site


Brewery news USA, KS: Dry Lake Brewing still on tap for downtown Great Bend
So a new business can soon open its doors on Great Bend’s downtown square, the Great Bend City Council approved on April 6 an ordinance waiving restriction for a planned microbrewery, allowing it to be located with 200 feet of a church. This allows the state to issue a microbrewery license for that location, the Great Bend Tribune reported.

Kevin Burkey and Ryan Fairchild are planning on opening Dry Lake Brewing at 1305 Main Street. They are in the process of remodeling the old Brown Shoe Fit building.

However, “state law does not allow a license to be issued for microbrewery if it is located within 200 feet of a parochial school, public school, church or college,” said City Attorney Bob Suelter. The River of Life Church is located at 1219 Main, 151 feet to the south.

The law does, though, provide that the city can waive that requirement by passage of an ordinance, he said. The licensed premises must be located within a core commercial district as defined by state law.

There are still more hoops for the brewers to jump through, Suelter said.

“He’s probably going to have to meet some other requirements for getting his beer tested and everything else ...More info on site

Brewery news Sweden: Sweden’s response to Covid-19 presents opportunities for local brewers’ eCommerce
Sweden’s response to Covid-19 has made the country stand out by opting for a lighter touch. The country has not shut down its bars and restaurants, in fact, the only limit placed on them is that all customers must be served via table service. This has meant that the beer and cider industry in Sweden has yet to feel the impact of a lockdown like some European countries, the Drinks Insight Network reported on April 7.

However, this could soon change. The Swedish Government’s approach is facing increasing backlash as the death rate in the country has climbed higher than its lockdown neighbours. As the calls for lockdown grow stronger, the beer and cider industry could soon be faced with the same challenges seen in other countries in lockdown.

Lockdown will create supply chain issues as production slows and distribution becomes increasingly challenging due to the impact Covid-19 has on the workforce. There are already signs of this as the state owned monopoly Systembolaget is operating on a reduced delivery capacity due to Covid-19 cases in warehouse staff. In addition, as seen across much of Western Europe consumer behaviour changes. Fewer shopping trips are made and consumers reprioritise their purchases, and often ...More info on site


Brewery news The Czech Republic: Second week of March saw alcohol sales rise 30%
The coronavirus and safety measures around it have had a big impact on Czech shopping habits, with alcohol purchases rising sharply, Expats.cz reported on April 7.

Purchases have narrowed to fast-moving goods available at stores that remain open and online purchases. People eat more at home, due to restaurants being closed except for take out, and have stocked up to reduce the number of shopping trips needed.

The peak panic shopping time was the second week of March, when retail sales grew by nearly 40% compared to the same time of the previous year, but sales were significantly lower both a week before and a week after this panic shopping. On March 6, the Czech government announced mandatory quarantine for people returning from parts of Italy, and on March 12 the government declared a state of emergency.

The entire alcoholic beverage segment recorded a 14% increase in sales during the first four weeks of the crisis, from February 24 to March 22, compared to last year. In the second week of March, alcoholic beverages sales increased by almost 30%. The statistics are reported by the Czech Confederation of Commerce and Tourism (SOCR ČR), based on research by auditing firm Nielsen.
