Canada: 2021-22 barley supply at 8 mln tonnes sharply down from 2020-21
|
For 2021-22, Canadian barley supply is projected at 8.00 million tonnes, down sharply from 2020-21 and reaching a record low, primarily due to production issues in Canada’s Prairie provinces, as well as record low carry-in stocks, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada said in its November report.
To reflect the tight supply, demand for both domestic feed consumption and exports will be sharply lower than last year. Canadian Grain Commission (CGC)’s weekly statistics show that, as
of November 1st, 2021, Canadian barley grain exports are close to 1.00 mln tonnes, 23% higher than the same period last year when barley grain exports had been active and exports for the entire crop year reached 3.80 mln tonnes. The analysts expect the exporting pace will slow down for the rest of the year.
Carry-out stocks are expected to be at a record low level. The 2021-22 barley carry-out stocks are projected at 300 thousand tonnes, which is much lower than the average monthly demand in the past five years. This level of ending stocks would meet less than one month of domestic use.
The average price of feed barley for 2021-22 is projected at a new record of $400/t, up sharply from the previous record set in

USA, SC: VooDoo Brewery expanding to Fountain Inn
|
Main Street Fountain Inn has an addition coming its way next year as VooDoo Brewery expands south, the Greenville Online reported on November 20.
The Meadville, Pennsylvania-based company is expanding across the country, bringing beer and an "elevated pub menu" with it, according to the announcement from SVN Blackstream.
The brewery will be located at 203 S. Main Street and should open in spring of 2022, according to owner Dave Simons.
Simons and his wife, Kim, will operate the brewery together, David Simons said. Beers will be brewed at VooDoo's Pennsylvania production facility, and will be shipped to the local brewery.
The brewery will also serve a full food menu that includes everything from burgers and creative pizzas to mussels and salads.
Voodoo Brewing Co. was founded in 2005 in Meadville and opened it first taproom opening in 2012, according to its website. There are several other Pennsylvania locations, one in Ohio and Las Vegas is listed as "coming soon."

USA, NM: Juno Brewery to take over Dialogue Brewing’s vacant building
|
Juno Brewery has emerged to take over the building left vacant after Dialogue Brewing closed during the pandemic, the Albuquerque Journal reported on November 20.
Jason and Maxine Marks, part of the new ownership group, reopened the brewery in June, breathing life back into the unique and historical Wells Parks building, which was once a warehouse, a museum and an auto shop.
In addition to beer, the brewery is offering food that includes tapas, paninis, hot dogs and coffee drinks, such as espressos and cappuccinos.
Latin music takes over the brewery every Thursday, with a dance party, and there is sometimes a DJ in addition to live music on the weekends.
“We have the capacity to do it, so we thought we would,” Maxine Marks said. “We both love music, and we both love salsa dancing.”
The back room will be used as an art gallery featuring local talent. Maxine Marks, who has a degree in art history, will curate the exhibits.
The couple said they didn’t try to reinvent the wheel when taking over the space. They made few changes to the interior, maintaining the industrial vibe, kept a few Dialogue beers on tap, including the 505 Mexican lager, and even hired former Dialogue brewer

USA, TX: Gather Brewing set to open in San Antonio in December
|
Residents of San Antonio's far North Side will soon gain a new brewery experience in Gather Brewing, a new family-friendly, indoor/outdoor brewpub set to open Saturday, Dec. 11, the San Antonio Current reported on November 22.
Owners Mike and Rachel Voeller took to social media this weekend to share the news of the grand opening and ribbon cutting, which will take place shortly before the brewery opens at 11 a.m.
Located just outside the main gate of Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, the new spot will offer more than 150 seats for folks to enjoy handcrafted brews, chef-prepared menu items and space to gather with friends.
Gather Brewing is located at 210 E. Aviation Blvd. in Universal City. Hours of operation were not immediately available.

USA, OH: Goodwood Brewing Co. expects to open its first brewpub in Columbus in February or March
|
Louisville's largest brewery is expanding to a new market, Louisville Business First reported.
Goodwood Brewing Co. is taking over the former Gordon Biersch space at 401 N. Front St. in Columbus, Ohio, and expects to open its brewpub in February or March.
"Columbus is a cool city with a good craft beer scene," Goodwood CEO Ted Mitzlaff said. "We"d been looking in the area for some time. We see a lot of similarities to Louisville."
The brewery considered spots in Dublin and Upper Arlington, but the 14,000-square-foot Gordon Biersch spot was an opportunity too good to pass up. That brewpub closed in early 2020, but its system and tanks are all still in place, which created a turnkey opportunity for Goodwood.

Canada, BC: Railside Brewing hoping to open taproom close to growing Brewery District in Kelowna’s North End
|
Railside Brewing is hoping to open a taproom and patio less than a kilometre from the growing Brewery District in Kelowna’s North End, InfoTel.ca reported on November 21.
The plan is to renovate a building at 1184 and 1186 High Rd. It’s near Gordon Drive and where a crosswalk crosses High Road from the Okanagan Rail Trail to the cycle lane running into downtown Kelowna along Cawston Avenue.
“Railside Brewing is a family and pet friendly brewery with a multitude of bike racks to encourage users of the Rail Trail to stop in without a vehicle,” states a letter accompanying the liquor permit application to the city.
“Our brewery will be a positive addition to the neighbourhood by providing a warm and inviting atmosphere where customers can enjoy local craft beer, wine and ciders.”
The plan is to use wort from nearby Vice and Virtue craft brewers, putting it in fermenters to complete the brewing process. It also plans to offer small batch brews and will include a small kitchen.
Drawings indicate seating for 96, which includes an outdoor patio.
Since 2016, at least eight craft breweries have opened in the area around Richter Street and Clement Avenue. The closest are less than a 10-minute walk

USA, MN: Hop & Barrel Brewing hosts grand opening in Spring Valley
|
A new brewery hosted its grand opening Saturday, November 20 in Spring Valley, KTTC reported.
It’s called Hop & Barrel, and it actually started out in Hudson, Wisconsin. After an opportunity for a second location opened up in Spring Valley, the owners hopped on it and opened a new storefront.
To celebrate the opening, there was live music, bean bags and of course, lots and lots of beer.
The owner, Justin Terbeest, says he wants to continue this lively atmosphere as the brewery settles into town.
“Our driving motto is has been a community center with beer. Communities are different place to place, but wherever that is, we want this to be place that different people can come together and have conversation,” Terbeest said.

Suriname: Heineken to invest in Surinaamse Brouwerij NV’s expansion
|
Heineken Brewery will invest several million euros in the expansion of Surinaamse Brouwerij NV, which will enable the Suriname company, which has been a subsidiary of Heineken since 1968, to produce 50 million litres of beer annually, the Aviation Analysis reported on November 24.
For the past 66 years, beer producers in Suriname have not been allowed to produce more than 20 million litres of beer annually. But due to an amendment to the law approved by the Parliament of Suriname last week, there is an expansion to 2.5 times as much as possible.
Surinamese Brouwerij, which only had space to brew PARBO beer, can now produce Heineken itself in Suriname due to expansion, and this presents opportunities, said manager Reinoud Ottervanger.
He sees opportunities to export Heineken and PARBO beers to, among others, the Netherlands, Curaçao, the neighbouring countries of French Guiana, Guyana and possibly also America.
The higher production limit could generate €7 million in indirect tax revenue for the Government of Suriname. The news site said it is also in line with President Santoji’s government’s policy to boost domestic production and exports.

South Korea: Convenience stores seeing huge boost in sales of packaged craft beer
|
Convenience stores in Korea are seeing a huge boost in sales of packaged craft beer after years of big beer having dominated the fridges, The Drinks Business reported on November 23.
Three years ago, the Korean convenience store beer market was reportedly overrun by imported beers due to price promotions, however, the situation has changed with each store now placing focus on selling craft beer.
The factors behind the change, according to Korea Bizwire, include: a slump in the Japanese beer import market resulting from the boycott against Japanese products, the growth of the home beer market amidst the pandemic and the consumption trend of the MZ generation that values individuality.
Currently, store chain CU is reportedly selling 27 different kinds of craft beers, with the share of craft beers among its total beer sales estimated at 15.2% in the January to October period of this year.
CU is not alone. Among 500-millilitre cans of beer have been alleged to be selling at GS25, while its share of craft beer shot up from 2.1% in 2018 to 12.4% this year.
The findings also show that share of craft beers among locally made beer sales at 7-Eleven also jumped from 2.5% in 2018 to 15.2% this

Europe: Molson Coors extends partnership to distribute Diageo’s beer portfolio in most Central and Eastern European markets
|
Diageo has extended its partnership with Molson Coors Beverage Company, which will see the latter distribute Diageo’s beer portfolio in most Central and Eastern European markets as of January, the Beverage Daily reported on November 24.
For Diageo, the partnership will help its key beer brands such as Guinness, Kilkenny and Hop House 13 grow further thanks to the strong on-trade and off-trade distribution channels Molson Coors has via its companies in the local beer markets.
The partnership started in April 2021 in the Czech Republic with Pivovary Staropramen - a Molson Coors company.
From January 1, it will add the following Molson Coors companies in Central and Eastern Europe: Kamenitza (Bulgaria), Zagrebačka pivovara (Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina), Borsodi brewery (Hungary), Pivovary Staropramen (Slovakia), Apatinska Pivara (Serbia), and Trebjesa brewery (Montenegro).
Michael Holm, Managing Director, Diageo Eastern Europe, said: “We will continue to evolve our route to market strategy and we believe that this cooperation will help us to significantly increase the availability of our beer brands.
"We look forward to the opportunities and growth we can achieve together with Molson Coors in most of the countries in Central and Eastern Europe with our brands and future innovations.”

UK: Alcohol-free beer predicted to be widely available on tap as from January
|
Alcohol-free beer is predicted to be widely available on tap this Dry January in the UK, as Heineken claims to have solved the yeast conundrum making draught no and low brews impossible until now, The Drinks Business reported on November 22.
The brewer believes that by 2025 the number of draught Heineken 0.0 taps in UK pubs will match that of its alcoholic alternative.
Heineken has come up with a way of stopping yeast from growing in the alcohol-free beer taps, resulting in a widespread launch of alcohol-free draught beer taps across the UK in January.
Alcohol-free beer has until now been predominantly sold in bottles and cans. The problem with draught NoLo pints being that natural yeast from the beer lines can make its way into the beer, turning the tipple alcoholic in the keg.
Several years ago Heineken trialled a countertop keg system in a number of UK pubs and bars, which received positive feedback. But the brewer had failed to come up with a solution to a widespread launch of alcohol-free beer using a pub’s own keg lines until now.
Five years of research has led to the company’s discovery that keeping the cellar equipment cooled to between 0°C and 2°C

India: Liquor players welcome excise duty reduction in Maharashtra
|
Global alcoholic beverages behemoth Diageo and associations like the International Spirits and Wines Association of India (ISWAI) welcomed Maharashtra government's move to reduce the excise duty on imported liquor by 50 percent, the Business Today reported on November 23.
Diageo, which owns brands like Johnnie Walker, Black & White, Smirnoff and Vat 69, has welcomed the move as it will make liquor brands ‘accessible for consumers in Maharashtra’ in line with Delhi, Haryana, West Bengal and Goa. It also called this a ‘win-win policy for consumers, industry and the Government’.
“We compliment the continued efforts of the Maharashtra Government in bringing progressive policies to the state. Diageo India welcomes the reduction in Excise Duty on imported spirits, which is in line with what we are seeing in other states,” says Abanti Sankaranarayanan, Chief Strategy & Corporate Affairs Officer, Diageo India.
“The reduction in duties will make these brands more accessible for consumers in Maharashtra, in line with states like Delhi, Haryana, West Bengal and Goa and is in sync with the strong consumer trend of premiumization in beverage alcohol. This new policy will correct revenue leakage for the State by curbing counterfeit and stock movement from other parts of the country, making it
