USA, MA: Mighty Squirrel Brewing Co. making a gigantic move into Boston
|
Waltham-based brewery Mighty Squirrel is making a gigantic move into Boston proper later this year. Boston Business Journal reports that the crowd-favorite brewery broke ground this month on construction for a 13,000-square-foot location in Fenway, at the shiny new residential development Bower, that is slated to open in October, Eater Boston reported on April 28.
The brewing company — known for its hazy, juicy New England-style IPAs like Cloud Candy — plans to use the space to experiment with new beers in smaller batches, and it’ll also include a kitchen run by a yet-to-be-named food partner. The brewery will also be neighboring the highly anticipated reboot of legendary Boston restaurant Eastern Standard, which is going into the same development.

USA, RI: Three new breweries coming to Rhode Island soon
|
East Providence will get its first brewery and tap room this summer while two other new breweries will open in Cumberland and South Kingstown, The Providence Journal reported on May 2.
It's a great time for hops and malt as the Rhode Island craft beer universe continues to expand and will soon number 40 breweries.
Building out has begun at Crook Point Brewing Co. in East Providence which stands near Providence's "Stuck-Up Bridge." Drive by on Massasoit Avenue and you'll see the outdoor deck being readied for guests.
Shiny new brewing tanks are already in place at Phantom Farms Brewing in Cumberland. The brewery will bring new life to the town's historic district, not the nearby farm, though both brewery and farm have the same owners, the Macari family.
The artist's renderings are done for Tower Hill Brewing which will be located in South County Commons just off Route 1. Beer tasting and a movie at the nearby theater may well become a new habit for date night if a group of friends and business partners have their way.
It's not just those three new destinations for craft beer that have people buzzing about openings as early as this summer. There's also the previously announced

USA, MI: Flat Iron Brewing launches in Manistique
|
A new brewpub called Flat Iron Brewing has opened in Manistique. Named after the famous Flat Iron block of town (once home to 22 bars when the paper company tried to make Manistique an alcohol-free town before Prohibition), the brewery is the creation of a mix of former Manistique residents and their families. The brewery opened to a large crowd with seven beers on tap, salads, pizzas and breadsticks, the Second Wave Media reported on May 3.
Flat Iron has a wide range of brewing specialists and beer aficionados on staff. The idea for the brewery started in the heart of the microbrewery district in Grand Rapids. Instead of building downstate, the group decided to move to Schoolcraft County because of cheaper real estate. That allowed the owners to find a large former gym and event center space on a southern peninsula jutting out into Lake Michigan.
The staff includes one of the most qualified brewers now in the Upper Peninsula. Ted Miller, former president of the Brewers Guild of Indiana, is leading the lineup of brews available.
“This came from a group of childhood friends just sitting around and discussing business ideas two years ago, and being down in Grand Rapids,

USA, WA: Reuben’s Brews announces its original brewery and taproom are for sale
|
Almost 11 years ago, Reuben’s Brews opened its first brewery and taproom in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood. It marked the beginning of a period of impressive growth, not just for Reuben’s Brews but for the Ballard brewery scene. Since 2012, more than a half dozen breweries have opened within a couple blocks of the original Reuben’s location, the Washington Beer Blog reported on May 2.
Reuben’s Brews just announced that the original brewery and taproom are for sale. The facility is located at 14th Avenue and 53rd Street, just a couple blocks from the location that most people know as Reuben’s Brews.
After an award-winning homebrewing career, co-founder Adam Robbings wanted a place where Reuben’s Brews could grow into its own. “This space had everything we needed to brew beers of the highest quality and connect directly with our customers,” says Robbings.
In August 2012, Reuben’s Brews opened this location in Ballard as its original brewery and tasting room. Starting with five beers brewed and served in the space, Reuben’s quickly became a well-respected brewery in the state. During its peak usage from 2012 – 2017, the brewery won 160 awards, including 2014 Best Taproom in Washington by RateBeer and Brewery of the Year

UK: Drinks sales up, but beer flat, and cider down – over three weeks to April 22nd
|
Easter holidays and decent weather helped managed UK’s on-trade venues achieve a 7% year-on-year increase in drinks sales over the three weeks to Saturday, 22nd April.
CGA by NIQ’s Drinks Recovery Tracker has shown an 18% increase in the first week of April, followed by drops of 3% and 7% in the next two weeks. Comparisons are skewed by the way Easter dates fell in the calendar in 2022 and 2023, but the three-week comparison provides the most accurate picture of trading over the period.
The 7% growth shows consumers remain eager to drink out in the on-trade. However, with inflation, as measured by the consumer price index, continuing to top 10%, year-on-year sales remained slightly down in real terms over Easter.
In the latest week, sales on Sunday and Monday suffered from comparisons to the key Easter dates in 2022, but they recovered to track 6% ahead on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, before dipping 1% on Saturday amid wetter weather.
Beer sales were flat, while cider and soft drinks were down 10% and 13% respectively. Wine sales were up 3%, continuing a welcome revival of the category, which had a difficult 2022. The spirits category continues to suffer

Nigeria: Nigerian Breweries shareholders ok EUR110 mln loan from Heineken International
|
Shareholders of Nigerian Breweries (NB) Plc have approved a resolution authorising the company to take an intercompany loan of 110 million euros from Heineken International, The Nation Newspaper reported on May 1.
Speaking during the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the company in Lagos, Chairman, Nigerian Breweries (NB) Plc, Chief Kola Jamodu, said the loan was necessary to help the company address the challenge of foreign exchange (forex) and pay off some of its overdue foreign currency denominated payables.
He said the loan would ensure that there was no disruption in the company’s operations due to a shortage of imported raw materials as its procurement agent would have stopped its services as a result of the overdue payables.
“Forex loss was a major impact on our profitability in 2022. Access to forex continues to be a major issue for NB Plc. The increase in our trade payables has been driven majorly by outstanding payments to our foreign trade partners due to unavailability of forex at the official windows,” Jamodu, who retired, after the April 26 meeting, on April 30, 2023, said.
He noted that despite the market’s competitive nature, the company maintained its market leadership position while ensuring value to the business and its

Australia: Asahi launches its non-alcoholic beer Asahi Super Dry 0.0% in Australia
|
Asahi Beverages has launched its award-winning, non-alcoholic beer Asahi Super Dry 0.0% in Australia, the Drinks Trade reported on May 3.
Winning a gold medal at the recent World Alcohol-Free Awards 2023 in London, judges described the brew as a “classic lager that’s indistinguishable from a full-strength version.”
Kym Bonollo, Head of International & Craft at Asahi Beverages, said that consumers are seeking options that offer great taste and quality as demand continues to grow for alcohol-free alternatives.
“Developed through extensive research and trials, Asahi Super Dry 0.0% is an elevated option,” she said. “As demand for alcohol-free alternatives grows, we’re seeing more people seek out brewed adult beverages such as non-alcohol beers that don’t compromise on taste or quality.”
Created using the same traditional Japanese techniques and high-quality ingredients as its full-strength counterpart, Bonollo said Asahi is committed to providing more options for consumers wanting moderate their alcohol consumption.
“Asahi Super Dry is an internationally recognised premium beer brand and Japan’s leading beer. Now, Australian beer lovers looking to moderate their alcohol consumption can enjoy Asahi Super Dry’s signature crisp and refreshing taste without the alcohol,” she said.
The Australian launch will be supported by an above the line campaign across TV, video on demand,

UK: Heineken to invest more than £1.77 mln into upgrading East Midlands pubs
|
Heineken has confirmed plans to invest more than £1.77m into upgrading East Midlands pubs, the Insider Media reported on May 3.
The move forms part of a wider £40m investment in 570 pubs in its Star Pubs & Bars' estate nationwide, which will create about 600 jobs.
One pub that has benefited from this investment is The Peacock in Nottingham, a historic pub once frequented by DH Lawrence. A £247,000 upgrade allowed the pub to reopen after a two-year closure with many of the original features – such as Peacock motif etched windows and original push bells for ordering drinks – retained.
The company has identified a further five sites in the East Midlands for investment. A refurbishment of The White Lion in Beeston is already underway to create two new pubs: The White Lion, a traditional cask ale house – and Blackshale Bar & Kitchen, a contemporary bar specialising in craft ales and modern English cuisine.
The company is also currently in talks with operators to revamp The Salutation, The Pear Tree, Keyworth, The Major Oak, Arnold, and The Blacksmiths, Loughborough.
Lawson Mountstevens, Star Pubs & Bars' managing director, said: "We know from previous economic downturns that when customers' disposable income is
