UK: Brexit opens way for alcohol tax overhaul - report
|
Brexit opens the way for a major overhaul of the tax on alcohol which could help British pubs and tackle problem drinking, Sky News reported on September 6.
Alcohol duty was an area where a break with Brussels could bring about "positive changes", said a report by the Social Market Foundation (SMF).
The study came as the popular British pub brand Wetherspoon's cut the cost of a pint of beer in its pubs by an average of 20p, with the firm claiming it was an example of how prices can come down if Britain leaves the customs union with the EU.
The chain's Brexit-backing boss Tim Martin said leaving the bloc on 31 October would allow the Government to end "protectionist tariffs".
In its report, the SMF pointed out EU-wide rules had a direct impact on the current system of alcohol taxation, including the way in which excise duty is calculated, and so acted as an obstacle to reform.
With an eye on Brexit, one of the changes proposed by the report includes a move to charge more tax on supermarket alcohol than alcohol sold in pubs
The introduction of a "pub relief" would help support the struggling licensed trade while making drinking at home or

USA: Millennials consume more alcohol because they have kids – Constellation Brands CFO
|
Beer and wine producer Constellation Brands is seeing an uptick in the millennial generation’s consumption of alcohol and, according to a company executive, that’s in part thanks to one specific reason, CNBC reported on September 5.
“When you said the millennials are drinking more, I’m like: That’s because they have kids,” Barclays analyst Lauren Lieberman said.
Lieberman made the comment somewhat jokingly during a discussion with Constellation Brands CFO David Klein, who was speaking with Lieberman at the Barclays Global Consumer Staples Conference on September 4.
“Well, I think that’s exactly the answer,” Klein responded.
He cited Constellation’s research on millennials to back up his broader thesis: The company found that in 2013, millennials consumed about 24 alcoholic drinks per month. By this year, that number has climbed to about 29 per month – with about 77% of all millennials in the U.S. consuming alcohol, according to Klein.
“What we don’t know though is will we see that same thing with Gen Z as they age, will they — will life get more stressful for them and they drink a little more? But it’s too early to tell, but we definitely have seen that with millennials,” Klein said.
Klein added that Generation Z, ages 21 to

EU: All beer bottles and cans to show ingredients and energy values on labels by 2022
|
The Brewers of Europe and its members have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) and committed, through a Brewers’ Ambition, to labelling ingredients and energy values on all beer bottles and cans in the EU by 2022, the trade association announced on September 5.
The ambitious targets were voluntarily agreed with the European Commission and adopted by the General Assembly of The Brewers of Europe in June.
The signing ceremony was attended by The European Commissioner for Health and Food Safety Vytenis Andriukaitis who said:
I am delighted to be part of today’s event. I want to take this opportunity to congratulate you for your commitments to alcohol labelling. And I also want to encourage you to continue being a pioneer around this issue in the wider alcohol sector. Consumers have a right to know more. Many of them want more details on what their drinks contain and what it means for their health. They want this information to be clear and transparent – a recurrent message we receive in all our public health and food safety work.
In the last four years brewers have been voluntarily rolling out ingredients and energy labelling in full accordance with Regulation (EU) 1169/20111, setting ambitious

India: AB InBev already incurring losses due to ban on its beer sales in New Delhi
|
Anheuser-Busch InBev will face a “substantial adverse impact” on its business in New Delhi and is already incurring losses due a ban on its beer sales in the city amid allegations of tax evasion, it said in a court filing seen by Reuters.
The ban could be a major setback for AB InBev, which is also battling a separate antitrust probe in India linked to alleged beer price fixing by SABMiller, which it acquired in 2016 for around $100 billion, and other firms, industry executives say.
Local authorities in July barred AB InBev, the world’s largest brewer, from selling all its beer brands in New Delhi for three years on allegations of evading local taxes. AB InBev has denied the allegations.
An Indian court on September 3 rejected a request from the brewer to put the ban on hold, saying it must first complete the appeals process before the state authorities.
Describing the ban as “irrational and perverse”, the company said it would “face substantial adverse impact on its business operations and livelihood in Delhi and is in fact incurring losses due to black listing”.
It did not disclose any specific loss figure.
“Apart from loss of goodwill and reputation, the domestic beer business of the

UK: Michelob Ultra coming to UK on-trade in draught and bottle format
|
Budweiser Brewing Group UK&I, part of AB InBev, is launching its Michelob Ultra brand in draught and bottle format to the UK on-trade, the Bar Magazine reported on September 5.
Michelob Ultra is a premium 3.5% ABV light beer, containing 125 calories per pint. The UK launch responds directly to the trend for leading an active lifestyle and demand for reduced-calorie and lower-alcohol options.
Michelob Ultra’s UK debut is supported by a national multimedia advertising campaign, involving print, digital and out-of-home media, which will focus on the beer’s “light qualities and functional benefits”.
The campaign will raise awareness of the brand, its availability in the UK and encourage consumers to try a Michelob Ultra. Sampling and large-scale brand partnerships have also driven support of the brand launch in the UK.
Tim Deeks, marketing manager, Michelob Ultra, said: “Drinking beer can sometimes seem at odds with living an active life, but it doesn’t have to be.
“Michelob Ultra signals an exciting new option for venues who want to respond to the increasing consumer demand for products that complement a balanced lifestyle.
“Low and no-alcohol beer is increasingly in demand in the on-trade, so it’s important for venues to have a variety of products to meet varying palettes.

USA: Court bars AB InBev from claiming its products have ‘no corn syrup’
|
A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction against Anheuser-Busch InBev that prevents the beer giant from claiming its products have “no corn syrup,” delivering a win for rival MillerCoors, CNBC reported on September 4.
A U.S. subsidiary of Molson Coors Brewing, MillerCoors, sued its St. Louis-based competitor earlier this year for a corn syrup ad campaign that began airing during the Super Bowl for its Bud Light beer. MillerCoors alleged that AB InBev singled out corn syrup for criticism because it would confuse and mislead consumers about its own use of the ingredient, in addition to misusing MillerCoors’ trademarks in its ads.
MillerCoors contends that while the beer brand uses corn syrup in the brewing process, there is no corn syrup in the actual beers it sells. It also argues that consumers can easily confuse high fructose corn syrup, which has been associated with the obesity epidemic, with the potentially more benign corn syrup it uses in brewing.
According to the ruling in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin, a “reasonable jury could find that the implicit message of the [Bud Light] packaging is that other beers contain corn syrup.”
In light of the limited number of light beer brands, the

Nigeria: Nigerian Breweries react to report exposing its protection of former CEO suspected of corruption
|
Nigerian Breweries Plc on September 4 reacted to an investigative report which exposed how the company protected Nico Vervelde, its Dutch Chief Executive Officer suspected of corruption, Premium Times reported.
The company reacted in a disclosure notice signed by Sade Morgan, the Corporate Affairs Director at Heineken.
The notice was sent to the Nigerian Stock Exchange on September 4.
The company’s reaction is coming against the backdrop of Premium Times’ publication of an investigative piece by journalists Olivier van Beemen and Femke van Zeijl which detailed corrupt practices in the company.
The report, titled ‘How Nigerian Breweries protected its Dutch CEO suspected of corruption’, was presented to the Nigerian audience for the first time.
The journalists recently won De Tegel, the most prestigious award for journalism in the Netherlands, for their revelations about high-end corruption at Nigerian Breweries, a subsidiary of the multinational Heineken.
In May 2017, Premium Times reported that Mr Vervelde resigned as the MD of the company to take up another appointment at the Heineken Group. He was promptly replaced with Johan Doyer.
The latest report has now exposed the details of the resignation. Based on almost a year of investigation both in Nigeria and the Netherlands, the report revealed how the company’s former

Canada: Only 5-10% of barley crop harvested so far due to continuing rains
|
|
Rains continue to plague the prairie harvest. Persistent rains which appear every two to three days in most of the Western regions are causing delays in the harvest. The only regions that have completed the barley harvest are southern Alberta and most of Manitoba. The weather pattern has been one of cool temperatures which are not permitting the fields to dry out. This will lead to more feed grains being produced, CMBTC said on September 5.
At this juncture, only 5-10% of the barley crop has been harvested, with some of the barley harvested at high moisture levels (15-20%), which will have to be dried down with farm dryers. Farm dryers will be an asset this fall. The changing weather patterns of the last few years have promoted the addition of grain dryers on many farms throughout the prairies.
The barley trade is getting nervous as there does not appear to be a change in the wet cool weather pattern for the next few weeks. Note that the projected barley harvest in Western Canada is for 10 million tonnes and the anticipated production of selectable malting barley was estimated at up to 4 million tonnes. With 1 million tonnes required

USA: North Dakota barley crop a challenge for maltsters this year
|
The crop in North Dakota is in one word a mess, especially in the southeast corner, CMBTC reported on September 5.
All the barley in this region is chitted/sprouted and has DON levels of 0.5-2 parts per million (PPM), industry sources report.
Maltsters have been adept at malting chitted barley and barley with vomitoxin, however to malt barley that is both chitted and has vomitoxin is another issue and can only result in extremely variable malt barley. Malting this year’s barley crop from North Dakota will be a very challenging endeavour, the CMBTC experts said.
