World: Beers with ABV of 6.5% or higher gaining global popularity - research
|
A new research from Mintel finds that almost one in four (23%) beers launched globally in 2014 (and 25% in 2013) had an ABV of 6.5% or higher, up from just one in seven (15%) beers launched in 2012.
What’s more, largely due to the growth of craft beers, Mintel’s research finds that between 2011 and 2014, the number of beers launched globally with an ABV of 6.5% or more rose by 280%, with the number launched in North America growing by 319%, in Europe by 307%, in Latin America by 260% and in Asia Pacific by 46%.
According to The Craft Effect, Mintel’s new report, between 2011 and 2014, North America witnessed the most beer launches in the world with ABVs of 6.5% or higher at 46%, closely followed by Europe which hosted 40% of launches.
“More global beer drinkers now view high ABV as a key quality indicator, inspired by the success of craft beer in the US – and increasingly globally over the past two years,” commented Jonny Forsyth, Global Drinks Analyst at Mintel, “While in certain countries, drinking strong beer has long been the cultural norm, they were previously the exception rather than the rule.

Cameroon: Beer consumption registers 4.9% increase last year
|
More than 620 million litres of beer was consumed in Cameroon in 2014, recording an increase of 4.9% from 2013, Cameroon Concord reported on August 7.
Beer remains the most popular alcoholic beverage consumed in Cameroon. The dizzying proliferation of taverns and bars is sufficient to indicate that the brewing industry controlled by three companies is flourishing. The beer parlours cluster together despite government legislation which provides for a distance of about 500 meters between two outlets.
Despite a recent order from the Ministry of Finance increasing the prices of alcoholic beverages, the consumption of beer still remains at its greatest high.

New Zealand: DB to lay nearly two-thirds of workers and reduce capacity at iconic Tui Brewery
|
Staff at DB's iconic Tui Brewery in Mangatainoka in the Tararua District of New Zealand's North Island are in shock after learning that nearly two-thirds of them, including two workers who have been there more than 40 years, may lose their jobs, NBR reported on August 6.
DB, owned by Dutch-based Heineken, entered a consultation process this week with the 37 staff on a proposal to spend NZ$4-5 million replacing the brewery with a much smaller capacity one. It will also undertake earthquake strengthening of the historic seven-storey Tui brew tower, no longer in use, which was built in 1931 so brewers could use gravity to turn malt into beer.
If the proposed redevelopment goes ahead, up to 13 fulltime and 11 part-time jobs would go, although DB said in a statement the exact numbers won't be finalised until staff provide feedback and the consultation is concluded next week. Any changes won't take effect until May next year.
DB won't say how much smaller the new brewery would be or what had sparked the proposal. The Tui brewery HQ tours, which currently attract 40,000 visitors a year, will continue.
Engineering Printing and Manufacturing Union organiser Ruth Sproston said staff had been expecting some job

Germany: BayWa buys trader Evergrain to expand international malting barley business
|
Leading German agricultural trading group BayWa AG said on August 5 it was buying German barley trader Evergrain to expand its international malting barley business.
The takeover, still needing competition approval, should enable BayWa's malting barley trading volume to exceed 1 million tonnes in coming years, the company said.
Hamburg-based Evergrain sources malting barley, used for beer and malt production, from Western Europe, Argentina and Australia and serves brewing and malt industry customers in Europe, Asia and South America, BayWa said.
BayWa's agricultural business was traditionally focused in south Germany, but last year it moved into grain trading in Spain and Italy and in 2012 it expanded into the Netherlands.
