Brewery news USA: Bud Light sales continue to plunge but sister brands beginning to recover
Bud Light sales continued to plunge as the nation’s No. 1 beer brand continues to lose share to runner-up Modelo Especial — but its sister brands are beginning to recover from the disastrous marketing partnership with Dylan Mulvaney, the New York Post reported on June 13.

Sales of Bud Light dropped 24.4% in the week ended June 3 — slightly worse than the 23.9% decline over the previous week which had included steep discounting over the Memorial Day holiday weekend, according to data from Bump Williams Consulting and NielsenIQ.

Meanwhile, Anheuser-Busch’s Michelob Ultra — the nation’s third-biggest brand by sales — turned positive for the first time in weeks with a 0.7% sales increase versus a 0.1% decline the previous week.

Elsewhere, Anheuser-Busch beers continued to drop, although at a slower rate.

The flagship Budweiser brand’s sales were down 7.8% vs. 8.5% while Natural Light’s sales were down 1.0% vs. a 1.5% decline and sales of Busch Light were were down 0.8% vs. a 3.0% decline over the same period.

“The majority of Anheuser-Busch InBev brands showed an improvement in trend declines versus the prior week,” said Bump Williams, head of the eponymous consulting firm, in a statement. “Perhaps this is the turning point.”

Brewery news USA, TX: Bayou City Hemp Co. acquires Houston’s 8th Wonder Brewery, Distillery and Cannabis
Houston’s Bayou City Hemp Co., which touts itself the leading cannabis operator in Texas, announces the acquisition of 8th Wonder Brewery, Distillery and Cannabis — one of the city’s most popular craft brewers and distillers. The announcement follows a series of successful collaborations between the two to create non-alcoholic THC beverages for canna-curious Texas consumers.

The acquisition integrates the artisanal expertise of the iconic Houston craft brewer with the cutting-edge science of Texas’ largest and most trusted cannabis operator. With a C-suite that draws from a wide range of experience (oil and gas, beverage sciences, CPG branding and marketing), Bayou City Hemp is poised to capture the Texas adult beverage market with a diversified portfolio of leading brands. The transaction has enormous implications for both the Texas beverage industry and the U.S. cannabis market, which is expected to grow to more than $86 billion by 2030.

“We’re excited to welcome the 8th Wonder Team to the Bayou City Family,” said Benjamin Meggs, chief executive officer of Bayou City Hemp. “Our commitment to provide quality products and trusted brands to consumers is strengthened with 8th Wonder, who has been a Texas staple in craft beer and spirits for over a decade.

Brewery news USA, OH: Richfield Brewing Co. scheduled to hold groundbreaking ceremony on June 13
Groundbreaking for the Richfield Brewing Co. is scheduled for Tuesday June 13, Cleveland.com reported on June 12.

Andrew Ritterbeck, a veteran brewer at several Ohio breweries, will be in the brewhouse and part of the ownership team, led by Mike Lytz. The 5,000-square-foot brewery is being constructed at 3871 Broadview Road, just south of Ohio 303 in Summit County. Target opening date is spring 2024.

“Right now there’s just a hole in the ground,” Ritterbeck said. “I’ve been involved in enough startups, it’s a moving target.”

Ironically, wine led to the beer venture. Ritterbeck’s parents know Lytz because they used to work at Sarah’s Vineyard, which Lytz owns. It’s near Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls.

“We’ve always wanted to have beer at Sarah’s Vineyard,” he said. Lytz is a former teacher, and his late wife, Margaret, was a nurse.

“We’re in the national park. We always wanted to have a winery and found an opportunity to lease land (in 2001) from the park. Whatever is sold has to be related to farming. We thought about a little brewery for a long time. Andrew came along and had some experience as a brewmaster.”

The idea for a brewery took root, and their search included the former ...More info on site


Brewery news USA, OH: Warped Wing Brewing Co. launching its newest brewery in Huber Heights this Friday, June 16

This space boasts a large outdoor biergarten, warehouse & production space, private event space, and a full food menu focused on smoked foods like the Springboro & Mason Taproom locations, the Craft Brewing Business reported on June 13.

“We’ve been soft opening now for a couple of weeks in Huber Heights – but we’re incredibly excited to officially open our doors and share some pints with our friends up north,” said Nick Bowman, co-founder and Vice President of Sales & Marketing at Warped Wing. “This new location has a great vibe and I’m excited for people to experience it. ‘The Heights’ is really taking shape and we’re so proud to be a part of it!”

Seating capacity is 127 in the main taproom, 48 in the event space, and 104 in the outdoor biergarten.

“We are planning on adding a pilot brewing system at our new location in Huber Heights,” said John Haggerty, co-founder and Brewmaster at Warped Wing. “The flexibility of having multiple systems allows us more opportunity to experiment and create ...More info on site


Brewery news USA, MI: LaTulip Brewery celebrates its grand opening in Cooks
A brewery in Schoolcraft County celebrated its official grand opening on Saturday, June 10, the Upper Michigan’s Source reported.

LaTulip Brewery is located on US-2 in Cooks. The owners purchased the property in 2020 and have been renovating it.

The brewery has been open to the public since August 2022, but acquiring the different required licenses was challenging.

June 10th was the grand opening. The brewery now serves pizza, offers live music and will host food trucks for customers to enjoy.

“The support that our family has given us has been outstanding,” said Jason LaTulip, LaTulip Brewery co-owner. “Our friends and family came from far away, the local support has been phenomenal. Because of the local support, we were able to make it through wintertime. It has been a great time.”

The brewery is open Wednesday through Sunday from 2 to 10 p.m. ET and closes at 6 p.m. on Sundays.



Brewery news USA, VA: Honor Brewing expanding with a new facility in Loudoun Couty
It’s been more than a year since it was first reported that the Honor Brewing Company was expanding and opening a new facility in Loudoun County. Now, construction is well underway and a target opening is in sight, The Burn reported on June 11.

Honor Brewing is coming to 42604 Trade West Drive. That’s just off Arcola Mills Drive, south of Brambleton in Ashburn.

Besides serving up more than a dozen styles of their beers and ales, the new location being built on five acres should also include a restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining as well as a full bar.

Honor already has its original brewing facility in Chantilly, and last year, they opened a restaurant and tasting room in Fairfax called the Honor Brewing Kitchen.

No word if the menus will be the same, but in Fairfax, they offer lunch, dinner, and brunch with menus full of appetizers, sandwiches, salads, entrees, pizzas, and more. You can see the Fairfax location’s menu here.

While no firm date has been set yet for the opening of the Loudoun location, we’re told they are currently aiming for September if everything stays on track.


Brewery news USA, TX: Thirsty Pups Brewery & Bottle Shop slated to open in Castle Hills later this year
San Antonio is home to a number of great breweries that are concocting award-winning beers, including Roadmap Brewing Co., Freetail Brewing Co., and Küenstler Brewing. Now, Castle Hills is getting in on the fun, with a craft brewery and taproom slated to land in the enclave city later this year, mySA reported on June 12.

Thirsty Pups Brewery & Bottle Shop is a new microbrewery coming soon to Castle Hills, landing in the same strip of businesses as Sushishima Japanese Restaurant and European Dumplings Cafe. Thirsty Pups is co-owned by Audra Perkins and brewer Erik Ureta, according to a news report by What Now San Antonio. Ureta has previously worked at Second Pitch Beer Co. and Alamo Beer Company.

The new craft brewery is expected to brew about six to eight house beers from the get-go, with established Texas craft beers from other brewers filling out the rest of the taps. Though many independent breweries in San Antonio also serve a menu of food along with their brews, Thirsty Pups will focus solely on providing beverages, according to the report.

While an opening date hasn't been set in stone just yet, the window for when we can expect Thirsty Pups to start serving ...More info on site

Brewery news The Philippines: San Miguel Corp. president expects ‘a challenging year’ for the company
Ramon S. Ang, president of conglomerate San Miguel Corp. (SMC), on June 13 said he would be “thankful” if the company’s performance this year would match its 2022 results, the BusinessMirror reported.

Ang said during the company’s annual stockholders’ meeting that 2023 will be “a challenging year” because of high inflation, higher cost of borrowing and the fluctuation of crude prices in the world market. He also noted the reduced power and food demand.

“So, but despite all of that, because the company is doing everything we can, our first quarter is still good,” Ang said.

“But, you know, if we compare 2022, which is a national election year, the volume is definitely much better than this year, 2023. So, if we can at least match the previous year’s performance, I think we should be very thankful.”

In 2022, San Miguel’s net income fell 44 percent to P26.76 billion from the previous year’s P48.16 billion.

Excluding the effects of foreign exchange and the CREATE Law, or Corporate Recovery and Tax Incentives for Enterprises Act, its net income reached P43.21 billion, still lower than the previous year’s P47.04 billion.

For 2022, it had record revenues of P1.5 trillion, some 60 percent higher than the previous year’s P941.19 ...More info on site


Brewery news Japan: Beer and quasi-beer sales grow 1% in May
Japanese sales of beer and quasi-beer products in May grew 1 pct from a year before, according to data from four major beer companies.

The rise reflected a 20 pct increase in sales to restaurants and bars thanks to stronger demand for eating out amid the Golden Week holiday period. The brisk demand also reflected an increase in foreign tourists.

Sales rose 4 pct for beer and 24 pct for "happoshu" quasi-beer, while so-called third segment beer-like beverages incurred a drop of 10 pct.

By maker, Suntory Spirits Ltd. logged beer and quasi-beer sales growth of 16 pct in volume, led by a 13 pct rise marked by the Perfect Suntory beer.

Sapporo Breweries Ltd. posted a 5 pct rise in sales volume, while Asahi Breweries Ltd. saw its sales in value expand 4 pct.

Brewery news Australia: Non-alcoholic beer industry booming in Australia
The non-alcoholic beer industry is booming as Australians cut back on booze, with alcohol consumption hitting the lowest levels in decades, the Sydney Morning Herald reported on June 11.

Endeavour Group, the parent company of Dan Murphy’s and BWS, reported one in 10 customers had bought a low- or zero-alcohol product across the past 12 months. Asahi Beverages – which accounts for almost half of the Australian beer market – said non-alcoholic beer sales had tripled in three years, and mid-strength, low- and zero-alcohol drinks made up 30 per cent of their total beer sales.

Australia’s non-alcoholic beer market is expected to grow 9.16 per cent a year, pulling in an estimated A$289 million in revenue this year.

IWSR Drinks Market Analysis found, it’s not teetotallers driving global growth, but Millennials cutting back on their consumption: 78 per cent of no- and low-alcohol consumers also drink full-strength alcohol.

The trend was obvious at the Sydney International Convention Centre Great Australasian Beer SpecTAPular craft beer festival last weekend, where stallholders noticed non-alcoholic options became more popular as the day progressed.

Lauran Vohmann started drinking non-alcoholic beers after completing dry January last year.

Barley news Australia: New barley variety expected to advance Australia’s barley production and potentially increase value of national industry
The Australian Agriculture and Food Minister Jackie Jarvis on June 9 unveiled a new barley variety that is being hailed as ‘the one’ to advance barley production in Australia and potentially increase the value of the national industry by A$110 million annually, the Australian Manufacturing reported.

The high-performance variety named Neo, the Greek word for new, is claimed to be well suited to medium to high rainfall environments boasting strong pest and disease resistance and superior grain quality characteristics.

Neo, which was recently submitted for malting barley accreditation, was created by locally based breeding company InterGrain, co-owned by the Western Australian Government and the Grains Research and Development Corporation.

The naturally bred variety is a product of the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development’s Cereal Doubled Haploid Program, accelerating the development of breeding lines tailored to Australian conditions.

“Neo barley reflects its name – a modern variety, ahead of its time and bred using the latest plant breeding technology to generate a leap in production and malting performance,” said Minister Jarvis.

He underscored that this new variety will help Australia maintain its position as a leader in the world when it comes to supplying premium barley to discerning domestic and foreign markets.
