EU & USA: European beer, olives, chocolate, and gin could be hit with steep import tariffs in the US
|
European olives, chocolate, gin and beer made with malt are among the latest products that could be hit with steep tariffs as part of a US-European dispute over government subsidies to aircraft makers, CNN reported on June 24.
The US Trade Representative announced a list of 30 total products that could be subjected to new tariffs, noting the United States imports about $3.1 billion of these goods annually from Europe.
The United States already levied 15% to 25% tariffs on $7.5 billion worth of other European goods as part of this dispute. The new items could be hit with tariffs of as much as 100%, according to the notice.
The World Trade Organization has already sided with the United States in the dispute, which goes back to 2004. The WTO concluded in 2018 that the European Union helped Airbus (EADSF) with unfair subsidies that hurt sales of US-based Boeing's wide-body jets.
That decision opened the way for the United States to put tariffs on European goods.
The WTO also found that Boeing had received improper tax breaks from Washington state. The state removed the tax breaks earlier this year, but the European Union is still threatening to put tariffs on US goods in response to

USA: Off-premise beer sales top $1 bln in four of the last five weeks - Nielsen
|
Beer category dollar sales in off-premise retailers have now topped $1 billion in four of the last five weeks, according to market research firm Nielsen, Brewbound reported on June 30.
For the one-week period ending June 20, off-premise scans increased 21.2%, to $1.02 billion, the firm reported. Category sales also reached $1 billion for the weeks ending June 13, as well as the weeks ending May 23 and May 30, which bookended the Memorial Day holiday. Sales fell just short of the $1 billion mark for the week ending June 6, totaling $998.4 million.
The latest sales spikes have nearly rivaled the July 4 holiday week in 2019, the previous high-water sales week of the last 52 weeks. Now, heading into the 2020 July 4 holiday, sales are surging, and they could go even higher as states once again pull back on allowing on-premise consumption in an effort to once slow down surges in new cases of COVID-19.
Three states with the largest populations in the U.S. — California, Texas and Florida — have each halted on-premise consumption of alcohol either statewide or in certain counties amid growing numbers of new cases of the novel coronavirus. Other states, including Arizona, are following suit.

UK & USA: Scotch exports to the US down by 25% since imposing of import tariffs in October 2019
|
The 25% tariff imposed on single malt Scotch whiskies in the U.S. last October is hampering what has been a vibrant upscale spirits segment in recent years. According to the Scotch Whisky Association (SWA), Scotch exports to the U.S. have declined by 25% since the tariff took effect, the Shanken News Daily reported on June 29.
“The tariffs make Scotch uncompetitive in the U.S. against other spirits and companies are losing sales and market share to competitor products,” said SWA chief executive Karen Betts. “This is hurting the industry at home as well as threatening the livelihoods of Americans who work in distribution, marketing, and hospitality in the U.S.”
With the U.S. now adding gin to the list of U.K. exports potentially in line for tariffs, U.K. distillers have further cause for concern. Betts noted that 70% of U.K.-made gin is produced in Scotland, which could see another blow to its export business if the U.S. follows through on its latest threat.

USA: Beer shipments drop 6.6% in May
|
U.S. brewers’ shipments in May declined 6.6%, to 14.2 million barrels, a loss of 1 million barrels compared to May 2019, according to the Beer Institute (BI), which shared unofficial estimates of domestic tax paid shipments compiled by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), Brewbound reported.
However, the BI offered a caveat with this month’s report, noting that the trade group anticipates “significant revisions” to March, April and May 2020 shipment numbers, as the TTB has postponed reporting requirements for filing and payment due dates for up to 90 days.
Nevertheless, the BI now estimates that shipments have declined every month thus far in 2020, year-to-date shipments down 2.8%, or nearly 1.9 million barrels. Through the first five months of 2020, U.S. beer companies have shipped an estimated 65,764,000 barrels.
May’s 1 million-barrel decline is now the steepest of 2020, topping April’s 700,000-barrel decline. The growing dip in shipments in April and May coincides with the shutdown of bars, restaurants and taprooms due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Off-premise beer sales have spiked during the shutdown, with dollar sales up nearly 18%, to around $18.9 billion year-to-date through June 14 in multi-outlet and convenience stores tracked by market research firm IRI.

US, AL: Monday Night Brewing Company to launch its Birmingham location in August
|
A much-anticipated opening of a brewery in Birmingham was postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but Monday Night Brewing Company announced this week that the Atlanta-based brewery will open in August, Patch.com reported on June 25.
The brewery's alcohol license was approved by the Birmingham City Council on June 23.
This brewpub is a key part of Third & Urban's Denham Building, a mixed-use project currently in development in the Parkside District neighborhood. The location will also feature an inviting patio and event space within walking distance to Railroad Park, Regions Field, and a variety of other restaurants, bars and breweries.
The planned 10,000-square-foot brewpub will serve 30 brews on tap, including house-made beers, small batch IPAs from the Hop Hut, barrel-aged and sour beers from the Garage, and guest taps from local breweries - as well as a full bar with wine and cocktails. The food menu is currently being developed, and will offer simple, shareable fare built for beer pairings.

USA, WA: Otherlands Beer now open in Bellingham
|
Bellingham, Washington continues its pursuit of the “Most Breweries per Capita” title. Otherlands Beer is now open in the city’s Sunnyland neighborhood at 2121 Humbolt Street. That means it is very near Twin Sisters Brewing and Kulshan Brewing (James St.) and quite near Wander Brewing, the Washington Beer Blog reported on June 26.
The brewery and cafe is the realization of a dream for two brewing and service industry veterans, Karolina Lobrow and Ben Howe.
According to the company’s website, “Otherlands Beer is a small brewery and cafe dedicated to the pursuit of excellence, the exploration of the unknown and the celebration of the beautiful and the absurd. Offering rustic lagers and farmhouse ales alongside European inspired street foods in a cozy guesthouse tavern.”
Also from the website, “Drawing inspiration from the many odd and wonderful folks we’ve met in our travels we brew beers for curious palates using a variety of traditional and old-world techniques. Our lager beers are “decoction” mashed in our direct fired brew kettle, naturally carbonated, and cold conditioned in horizontal lagering tanks. Our farmhouse ales are brewed with an evolving house yeast culture and undergo a lengthy refermentation in the keg and bottle. Even our IPAs have a

Canada, ON: Red Barn Brewing Company days away from opening in Chatham-Kent
|
A small family farm in rural Chatham-Kent has evolved into a new local brewery that stays true to its homegrown roots, AM800 reported on June 27.
“The red barn is kind of an iconic symbol of the farm, especially for CK which is lush with agriculture,” said Denny Vervaet, co-owner of Red Barn Brewing Company.
The brewery is days away from opening their doors.
“Fortunately there’s not a lot going on on Canada Day so we’re hoping that we have a really nice turnout,” Vervaet said.
The COVID-19 pandemic threw a wrench into plans, but the Alcohol Gaming Commission is allowing the owners to set up a temporary takeout store.
“They did a virtual tour with us and they gave us the amendment to have us a temporary store, he said. “So this is helping our cash flow while we finish the rest and get to day one.”
Economic Development officials in Chatham-Kent say the brewery is among half a dozen new businesses opening in South Kent.
“Honestly in the community, we’ve seen businesses opening up,” said Matt Reaume, Chatham-Kent economic development officer. “I’m going to visit give new ones next week so the economy is growing, even during a pandemic they’re looking for opportunities to make

USA, KY: Brew Bridge becomes Owensboro’s first brewery since 1903
|
For the first time in 117 years, Owensboro has a brewery. Brew Bridge, the first brewery in town since Owensboro Brewery closed in 1903, has started making beer, The Lane Report said on June 26.
And it will open the doors of its brew pub to the public on July 3.
David Haynes, who owns the business with Max Garvin, said he expects to have eight dark beers ready for the opening at 4 p.m. that day. A soft-opening, a party for investors and those who have helped them get the business started, is scheduled for 7 p.m. Thursday, July 2, he said.

USA: Brewers Associatin cuts another 17% of its workforce
|
The Brewers Association has announced a second round of layoffs, cutting 17% of its workforce, the national trade group confirmed to Brewbound.
The layoff amounted to nine additional employees of the BA, including one of its most recognizable faces and advocates for small and independent U.S. craft brewers: Julia Herz.
Herz had worked for the BA for more than 13 years, last serving as craft beer program director and publisher of CraftBeer.com. Denver alt-weekly newspaper Westword first reported Herz’s departure from the BA.
Herz, who has already updated her LinkedIn profile with a new venture, HerzMuses Enterprises, in which she lists her new role as “advocate and educator,” played that same role with the BA and became one of the most prominent women in the male-dominated craft brewing industry.
Other people confirmed to be included in this round of cuts include several long-time employees:
Acacia Coast, who served as brewers guilds manager on the BA’s government affairs team, and worked for the organization for nearly a decade;
Gary Glass, director of the American Homebrewers Association, who had been with the organization for 20 years;
Kathryn Porter Drapeau, event association director, who had been with the group for more than 19 years.

Canada, NB: Bagtown Brewing reopens in a larger facility
|
Bagtown Brewing, a nanobrewery that was opened in 2017 by group of commerce students at Mount Allison University in Sackville, Nova Scotia, has reopened after a six month hiatus in a new and larger facility, the Canadian Beer News reported on June 29.
The new location officially opened on June 20th, and in addition to selling Bagtown beers, the retail shop – which is operating under the name Uptown Bagtown Boozy Market – also stocks a selection of beers from other New Brunswick craft breweries, as allowed under legislation introduced last month.
The new Bagtown Brewing brewery and retail store is located at 45 Main Street in Sackville, just across the street from its original location. Business hours are currently 12:00 noon to 6:00 PM on Friday, and 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM on Saturday.

Croatia: Number of Croatians who drink beer every day increases - survey
|
A total of 84.5% of Croatians drink beer and 8.8% do it every day, which is 3.7% more than two years ago, Hina reported on June 28 citing results of a new survey.
The survey was conducted in May 2020 by Ja Trgovac magazine and the Hendal market research agency on a representative sample of citizens aged 16 years and over.
It showed that 84.5% of the respondents drink beer, 2.8% fewer compared with a survey carried out two years ago before the world football championship in Russia. However, the number of those who drink beer every day increased from 5.1% to 8.8%.
Some 36% of those interviewed said that they drink beer several times a week, an increase of 6.3% from the previous survey, while 18.8% said they do so once a week, up from 12% two years ago. Slightly over 24% consume beer several times monthly, 7% once a month and 4.8% several times a year, markedly down from 17.3% in 2018. Only 0.1% drink beer fewer than several times a year, compared with 5.5% two years ago.
More than half of the respondents, namely 56.2% (up 5.3%), drink beer at home or at friends’ or relatives’, while the number of

Brazil: Diageo doubles efforts to strengthen presence in e-commerce channels
|
Diageo Plc, the world’s largest spirits maker, has doubled efforts to strengthen its presence in e-commerce channels in Brazil as the coronavirus pandemic triggered lockdowns, driving customers to drink at home, a company executive said on June 26.
“Consumption at home has increased significantly over the past three months, but does not fully compensate revenue lost with the closure of bars, restaurants, nightclubs and events,” Diageo’s managing director for Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay, Gregorio Gutierrez, told Reuters in an interview.
He did not specify how much sales have fallen in the region since the outbreak started, but noted that the so-called “on-trade: segment - in which alcoholic drinks are sold for consumption in licensed premises - represents between 40% and 50% of Diageo’s business.
“As soon as these on-trade channels closed, we reallocated our resources to an online task force,” Gutierrez added.
The Johnnie Walker whisky maker currently has partnerships with major retailers in Brazil, including international players such as Amazon.com and MercadoLibre, as well as the local subsidiaries of French supermarkets groups Casino Guichard Perrachon SA and Carrefour SA.
Despite efforts to boost online channels, Brazil’s alcoholic beverages association Abrabe estimates the coronavirus crisis reduced total sales by an average of 50%.
