Brewery news South Africa: South African Breweries urge excise adjustment as beer sector volumes decline
The South African Breweries (SAB) has urged the government to consider an excise adjustment that is in line with, or below inflation in the upcoming Medium-Term Budget Policy Statement in October, IOL reported on September 7.

This comes as beer production volumes have declined significantly in the first seven months of 2023 due to depressed consumer spending on the back of weak economic growth.

This was said at the SAB’s annual State of the Economy (SOBE) event held at one of SAB’s biggest breweries in Alrode, Johannesburg.

SAB CEO Richard Rivett-Carnac said the two excise adjustments that were in line with projected inflation over the past two budgets had allowed SAB to invest and continue contributing to the beer economy, investing in almost R12 billion in the past two years.

However, Rivett-Carnac said, “Given demand-side pressures emanating from constraints on consumer disposable income, and supply-side pressures from rising input costs, the alcohol industry has declined in volume in the seven months leading up to July 2023.

“It is now more important than ever for the government to adhere to policy and for excise increases to be linked to CPI,” he said.

In his February 2023 Budget Speech, Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana announced an increase of 4.9% ...More info on site


Brewery news USA: Bill Gates' foundation trust buys AB InBev stock worth $95 mln
Bill Gates' foundation trust bought 1.7 million shares of Anheuser-Busch InBev after the company experienced a few months of controversy and declining stock prices. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Trust bought the shares — valued at about $95 million — last quarter, according to an SEC filing, CBS News reported on September 7.

Anheuser-Busch took a hit earlier this year when Bud Light sales dipped following an Instagram ad campaign with Dylan Mulvaney. The transgender actress and activist partnered with the beer company on April 1, outraging many conservatives.

Some people, including Kid Rock, called for a boycott of the beer, and reported sales dropped in the month that followed. Bud Light, which was once the nation's top selling beer, saw a 23% decline in May from the same period the year before. Sales slipped again in June, down 28% compared to the same period last year, according to Bump Williams, which tracks alcohol sales.

Bud Light was overtaken by Modelo Especial in the No. 1 spot, according to consumer behavior data analytics firm Circana.

After the backlash over the Mulvaney partnership, Anheuser-Busch attempted to boost its image by releasing patriotic ads and a statement from CEO Brendan Whitworth, who ...More info on site


Brewery news Ireland: Heineken is Ireland’s leading drinks brand - Checkout Top 100 Brands report
Heineken is Ireland’s leading drinks brand according to the latest Checkout Top 100 Brands report. The rankings are produced by Checkout Magazine in partnership with NIQ Ireland.

The Checkout Top 100 Brands is based on branded value sales across the Irish grocery sector, making it the most accurate barometer of the biggest selling brands in the marketplace.

In compiling the report, NIQ Ireland measures the sales performance of over 5,000 brands from over 200 product classes.

The report shows interesting implications for the the grocery retail off-trade sector and Irish consumer behaviour.

Looking back to 2022, fewer than ten of the top 12 drinks brands retained their positions from last year.

This may indicate that inflation and the cost of living are biting into the pockets of drinkers forcing them to reassess their buying choices.

The report shows Smirnoff, Guinness, Bulmers, Jameson and Coors are still the nation’s number two, three, four, five and six brands, respectively, while Santa Rita, Casillero del Diablo, Rockshore and Corona retain their number nine, ten, 11 and 12 positions.

Beyond the top ten, three brands retain their 2022 positions this year. Irish lager Rockshore retains the number 11 position that it reached last year, Mexican lager Corona makes it three years ...More info on site

Barley news Australia: Western Australian Malt Barley Variety Receival Recommendations released for the 2024-25 harvest
The Grain Industry Association of Western Australia has released the Western Australian Malt Barley Variety Receival Recommendations for the 2024-25 harvest, the Grain Central reported on September 7.

Observations indicate there has been no major change in international barley and malt trade fundamentals over the past 12 months as diversification of markets and increased acceptance of Australian barley and malt to Africa, Asia, Mexico, and South America continues.

A considerable change that will impact the 2024-25 harvest is China’s removal of the 80.5 percent anti‐dumping and countervailing duty measures on Australian barley, and lifting of the ban on Emerald Grain, now trading as Louis Dreyfus Company, and CBH Grain.

GIWA Barley Council chair and InterGrain barley breeder David Moody said the end of the barley tariff was good news for the barley industry.

“WA has a strong trade history with China and our varieties work well within the Chinese malting and brewing systems,” Mr Moody said.

“Chinese maltsters and brewers will need to adjust to the change in the malt variety mix since implementing tariffs in 2020.

“For example, varieties such as La Trobe and Scope CL are no longer segregated, and WA growers have switched from Spartacus CL to Maximus CL.”

Mr Moody said the resumption ...More info on site

Hops news USA, WA: Promising hop harvest season predicted in Yakima Valley
The hop harvest is underway across Washington State, and since the hops started growing in March, it looks to be a promising season in the Yakima Valley, KIMA reported on September 7.

The hop harvest officially started in Washington last week.

The vice president of crop production at Yakima Chief Ranches, says the quality and yield perspectives look good.

"The quality this year is excellent, it's been a great growing season," said Jason Champoux, the vice president of crop production at Yakima Chief Ranches. "Every year has its challenges, but this year's been from a quality standpoint and yield standpoint looks to be a great year. So, we are excited to welcome all our brewing customers to Yakima for Hop Harvest."

One of the challenges that they could see, is the weather.

While Yakima County is currently in a drought emergency, Champoux says that would only have an effect at the start of the harvest.

"The drought would be more susceptible to impact the crop earlier in the season, in the growing season," Champoux said.

But Champoux says at this point, the drought wouldn't have much of an effect.

He did say other weather elements could play a role.

"Really the only thing that can affect us at this ...More info on site
