Australia: Coca-Cola sells Feral Brewing to joint venture
|
Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Australia (CCEP Australia) has sold Feral Brewing to a joint venture comprising Nail Brewing and a consortium of investors, including fellow independent Western Australia brewery Beerfarm, Inside FMCG reported on May 21.
CCEP Australia MD Orlando Rodriguez said the sale of Feral Brewing will allow the company to focus on its core NARTD (non-alcoholic ready-to-drink) portfolio.
“The purchasers possess the attributes to deliver the necessary scale to achieve long-term sustainable growth for the Feral business and, just as importantly, to continue to invest in the development and growth of the Feral team,” added Rodriguez.
With a strong footprint in the WA brewing industry, Beerfarm and Nail Brewing said they will continue to support and grow the Feral brand and its production volumes while maximising beer production at their Bassendean site.
Feral Brewing’s production facilities will be used to produce Beerfarm’s products, enabling Beerfarm to triple its volume, expand its presence in the craft beer industry, and meet the supply demands of larger liquor distributors in the country.
Meanwhile, Beerfarm’s Metricup brewing facilities will continue to produce a core range of products and enable further innovation to pioneer new craft beer and other products.
In response to the acquisition, Ian Atkins, founder and

Nigeria: Nigerian brewers double on local inputs amid foreign exchange crunch
|
Nigerian brewers are turning to sorghum in place of barley for brewing beer and malt drinks to reduce their foreign exchange exposure following the FX crisis plaguing Africa’s most populous nation, BusinessDay NG reported on May 17.
Aside from mopping up a larger percentage of available sorghum in the country, the brewers are also directly investing in sorghum cultivation, with some billed for harvest in two to three years. The move is seen helping the beer makers to save millions of dollars they would have spent on the importation of barley malt and concentrate as well as drive down their cost of production.
Joshua Adedeji, chairman of the Sorghum Farmers Association of Nigeria, South-West, said there has been an increase in the demand for sorghum from the brewery industry, especially since the beginning of the year when the FX crisis worsened.
According to Adedeji, Nigeria is presently unable to meet the demand of brewers, noting that some, including the Nigerian Breweries, are heavily investing in backward integration to ensure a sustained supply of the grain.
“Presently, only seven major northern states produce sorghum in large quantities and that has not been able to meet the needs of manufacturing companies that use the crop.”

USA, CA: Sapporo-Stone Brewing unveils phase one of its $60 mln expansion
|
Two years following the announcement of its acquisition by Sapporo U.S.A., San Diego-based Sapporo-Stone Brewing, unveils the near completion of phase one of its expansion project at its Escondido brewery, ABC27 reported on May 21.
The $20 million investment in the Escondido, CA facility is one of two significant investments for growth with $40 million invested in the company's Richmond, VA operation. These investments will result in the doubling of the company's capacity to about 700,000 barrels a year across its bi-coastal breweries. The brewing of Sapporo beers in Escondido, CA and Richmond, VA is now underway.
Stone Brewing, Southern California's largest craft brewery was acquired by Sapporo U.S.A. in 2022. The goal was to transition from an importer to a U.S. brewer, ultimately brewing, selling, and marketing all of Sapporo's beers for the U.S. market locally. Richmond's expansion will be unveiled this fall. By late summer, all production of Sapporo beers will have moved from Canada and Asia to the U.S.
Sapporo-Stone Brewing is now a combined team of nearly 850 employees, about 600 of whom are based in San Diego County. In support of its expansion project, the company added 125 jobs locally and another 75 outside of San Diego

South Korea: New beer trends emerging in Korea as industry enters its peak summer season
|
As South Korea’s beer industry enters its peak summer season, a new trend is emerging: low-sugar, low-alcohol, and low-calorie beers, Pulse News Korea reported on May 21.
This shift aligns with the “healthy pleasure” trend gaining traction among the young consumers who are increasingly favoring lighter beers over the traditional 4.5 percent alcohol content brews.
CU convenience store announced on Sunday that the newly launched 1.5 Degree Beer, introduced on May 8, sold over 8,000 units by May 16.
This beer has quickly risen to the fifth spot in sales among 15 domestic beers, particularly resonating with younger consumers.
Sales data showed that 20-somethings accounted for 50.7 percent of its sales, followed by those in their 30s at 38.4 percent. This contrasts with the overall domestic beer sales where the 30s demographic leads.
The trend towards no and low alcohol products is rapidly growing, especially among those who enjoy drinking at home. This has led beer companies to roll out a variety of related products. These include zero-alcohol beers, which boast no calories or sugar, and low-calorie beers with reduced sugar and carbohydrate content compared to regular beers.
Oriental Brewery recently launched Michelob ULTRA, a premium low-calorie beer originally introduced in the U.S. in 2002.

UK: Draymen and warehouse staff strike could lead to beer shortage this summer
|
Pub-goers face beer taps running dry this summer as draymen and warehouse staff strike for more than three weeks, union bosses warned, the Daily Star reports .
More than 100 workers at GXO Logistics, which supplies Whitbread pubs, will down tools from May 28 in a row over pay.
The pub giant operates more than 800 taverns across the UK, including Beefeater and Brewers Fayre venues, plus over 800 Premier Inns.
Unite said the action could affect deliveries of lagers, ales, wines, spirits and favourite meals and snacks - just as revellers look to descend upon beer gardens.
The industrial action may also impact GXO customer Costa, which operates around 14,000 sites in the UK.
Unite said in a statement: “The GXO Logistics workers transport goods for popular brands such as Costa Coffee and Whitbread, which owns Premier Inn.
“Unite believes that provisions, such as food and drink, will be in short supply while workers are taking industrial action.”
Union chiefs said some workers at the depot in Feltham, west London, suffered “alarmingly low pay” of just over £12 an hour.
Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said: “It’s disgraceful that a multi-billion-pound company is paying its workers below the London Living Wage.”
The London Living Wage is currently set
