Brewery news UK: Independent craft brewers at ‘breaking point’ amid plummeting sales and incoming tax hikes
Independent craft brewers are at “breaking point” amid plummeting sales and incoming tax hikes, UK’s Society of Independent Brewers has warned.

Craft beer sales over July stood at just 51% of what brands would have expected in a “normal year” – even despite the reopening of pubs and bars, according to a survey of craft brewers by the trade body released on September 28.

Production slumped, too: 68% of brewers said they remained trading but brewed fewer times. Eleven per cent temporarily closed their breweries but have since reopened, 8% remained the same throughout and 6% remained trading but didn’t brew.

Only 35% of staff were back full-time after furlough, the survey revealed, with 30% back part-time.

Overall, 64% of brewers said they expected coronavirus “to have a strong negative impact on their business throughout 2020-2021”, with 27% expecting a “moderate negative impact”, 4% expecting a neutral impact and just 2% a moderate positive impact.

It comes as the government is poised to slash Small Brewer’s Relief, the progressive tax system which was introduced to offset small beer brands’ high ingredient costs, allowing them to compete with bigger brands in the market.

Under current rules, brewers who make under 5,000hl of beer per year ...More info on site


Brewery news Australia: Largest breweries push for excise tax cut
Australians could soon be enjoying cheaper beer, as Australia's largest breweries push the government to cut excise tax to reduce prices and provide a lifeline to struggling pubs and clubs, the Daily Mail reported on September 29.

Coopers, Lion and Carlton & United Breweries combined to make the call, saying booze must be made more affordable to entice badly-needed customers back to bars after many months of heavily reduced trade due to coronavirus lockdowns.

The breweries estimate 85 per cent of the country's beer stock is made in Australia.

Currently breweries are taxed A$2.23 per litre of alcohol at the manufacturing point, which is passed on to consumers.

Peter Filipovic, chair of Brewers Association of Australia, said a cut would help breweries' biggest customer - the hospitality industry.

'We need to make a beer at the pub more affordable. It is as simple as that,' Mr Filipovic said.

'The tax on beer has gone up twice annually for the past 35 years forcing Australians to pay the fourth highest beer tax in the industrialised world.

'This has meant beer, the drink that brings people together, is less and less affordable for everyday Australians. It's not unusual for a single pint to cost A$10 or more nowadays, ...More info on site


Brewery news Japan: Taxes for regular beer to decrease, those for third-segment drinks to rise as from October
Changes to Japan’s tax system from October spells bad news for drinkers in Japan, as tax rates and, therefore, prices, will be hiked for some alcoholic drinks, Nippon.com reported on September 29.

Prices will also be raised for some tobacco products.

Taxes for so-called third-segment quasi-beer are slated to rise 9.8 yen per 350 ml, while those for fruit-based alcohol, such as wine, are slated to rise 3.5 yen for the same volume.

Sales of third-segment beer-like beverages, which are cheaper than regular beer, had been on the rise since the consumption tax rate hike last October led people to cut back on spending. A spike in consumption of food and drinks at home amid the novel coronavirus epidemic has also contributed to the boom.

On the other hand, taxes for regular beer will be lowered by 7 yen per 350 ml, while those for sake will be reduced by 3.5 yen for the same amount.


Brewery news India: AB InBev and Indian Hotels Company open their first microbrewery in Bengaluru
Anheuser Busch InBev (Ab InBev) and Indian Hotels Company (IHCL) opened their first microbrewery, 7Rivers Brewing Co, at Taj MG Road, Bengaluru, on September 25, Moneycontrol.com reported.

The microbrewery opens almost a year after Tata-owned IHCL announced the deal, on October 4, 2019, to open 15 microbreweries over the next five years.

"The brewpub, spread across 2700 sqft, will offer beer inspired by the quintessential flavours of the region, as well as those made from the finest locally sourced ingredients and crafted by experienced international and Indian brewmasters," IHCL said.

Kartikeya Sharma, President- South Asia, AB InBev, said, "We are thrilled to unveil our first 7Rivers microbrewery through our exclusive partnership with IHCL, in the beer capital of India. We are constantly exploring avenues to offer the best beer experience to delight our consumers, as we see a growing trend towards artisanal beers in the country."

Among the world's top brewers, AB InBev sells beers including Budweiser, Corona, Stella Artois and Hoegaarden.

The 7Rivers Brewpub will also launch tours for guests to experience the brewing process and the craft that goes into making a glass of beer.

"7Rivers Brewpub at Taj MG Road is an innovative offering, which we believe will add an interactive dynamic to ...More info on site


Brewery news UK: Grolsch beer returning to UK on-trade this autumn
Grolsch will return to the UK on-trade this autumn with a new visual identity, Bar Magazine reported on September 28.

The lager was acquired by Asahi UK from AB InBev (now Budweiser Brewing Group) in 2016. Under the new name Grolsch Premium Pilsner, it will now be brewed in its homeland of Enchede, The Netherlands, instead of in the UK, at a lower ABV of 4%.

The brand’s comeback will be marked by a multi-million-pound marketing campaign and new look, which “heroes the brand’s 400-year heritage and authentic Dutch provenance”.

The Grolsch logotype has been carefully redrawn to capture the character and craftsmanship of the brand’s original hand-painted signs, returned to its heritage red and placed within a clean white disc. The pilsner’s iconic swing-top will also return to the packaged format.

A new suite of assets have been specially designed for the on-trade, including bespoke glassware, found, barware, tap badges and handles, to deliver a “stand-out premium look for the bar and memorable experience for beer lovers”.

Tim Clay, managing director at Asahi UK, said: “Grolsch Premium Pilsner is back with a fresh brand identity and a brilliant, revitalised liquid, brewed at its iconic home in East Netherlands.

“The brand new packaging and in-bar experience ...More info on site

Barley news Ukraine: Ukraine to cut winter wheat, barley area this year
Ukraine, hit by the severe drought, plans to cut its area under winter wheat to 6.1 million hectares from around 6.7 million a year earlier, the economy ministry said on September 29.

The ministry's data showed farms had sown around 25% of the expected area as of Sept. 28 or 1.5 million hectares.

The ministry gave no comparison.

The ministry also said farms had sown 61,200 hectares of winter barley or 6% of the expected sowing area of 946,300 hectares.

Farms sowed 1.06 million hectares of winter barley for the 2020 harvest.

Weather forecasters this month called the weather conditions the worst in 10 years and said only 10% to 15% of Ukraine's arable land was suitable for sowing winter crops for the 2021 harvest due to a severe drought.

Ukraine traditionally begin winter grain sowing in early September, but this year farmers have started the sowing few weeks later.

Ukraine controls about 16% of global grain exports and sold 57.2 million tonnes of grain abroad in the 2019/20 season. The government has said exports could decline to 47.4 million tonnes in 2020/21.


Barley news Australia & India: AEGIC continues efforts to pay the way for Australian malting barley into Indian market
The Australian Export Grains Innovation Centre (AEGIC) is continuing to engage closely with Indian brewers and maltsters to pave the way for Australian malting barley to enter the Indian market, the Grain Central reported on September 28.

More than 30 members of the Indian brewing and malting industry took part in an online seminar last week, hosted by AEGIC and Austrade, communicating the quality, safety and reliability of Australian malting barley.

AEGIC barley markets manager Mary Raynes said the seminar was a collaborative effort, with participation from AEGIC, Barley Australia, Grain Trade Australia, Grains Industry Market Access Forum and the Australian Government.

“By 2030, the size of the Indian malting barley market is likely to be between 450,000 tonnes and 650,000 tonnes,” she said.

“The Australian barley industry is working together to ensure Australia is well-placed to capture a strong share of this market.”

India has not been a malting barley market option for Australia for 10 years due to a technical phytosanitary restriction.

The Australian grains industry is working together with the Australian Government and Indian Government to work through technical issues and allow market access.

Behind the scenes, AEGIC has been engaging with Indian brewers and maltsters to help provide a pathway for Australian malting ...More info on site
