Brewery news World: Drinkers would pay more for eco-friendly beers, survey finds out
The majority of drinkers are more likely to buy planet-friendly beers in bars and supermarkets, according to a global survey by Pall Corporation, The Drinks Business reported on May 23.

Beer drinkers are willing to pay more for their pint if it helps to ease the planet’s global warming crisis, according to data released in a survey, conducted by the water and waste reduction company.

Almost half of 3,500 respondents across seven countries said they would choose a more expensive, but more sustainably-produced beer over a less expensive rival that does more damage to the environment. Plus, despite the cost-of-living crisis, respondents said they would be prepared to pay up to 30% more for a “greener” pint produced in a way that reduces waste and water and energy consumption.

The survey findings also found beer lovers are more aware of – and concerned about – the environmental impact of their pint than ever before with almost two-thirds (61%) having admitted that the sustainability of their beer now directly affected their choices in pubs, bars and supermarkets.

Pall Corporation beer market manager Roland Pahl-Dobrick said: “Consumers are considering the environmental impact when deciding which beer to purchase. Consumers have an interest in the brewing process ...More info on site

Brewery news USA, TX: Molson Coors reaches deal with workers to end Fort Worth strike
Molson Coors and 420 workers at its Fort Worth brewery are ending a three month-long strike after ratifying a new contract with the company late in the afternoon on Wednesday, May 22, the Dallas Morning News reported.

The new three-year contract includes wage increases and a better benefits package for workers and retirees, addressing the same issues workers represented by Teamsters Local 997 went on strike for back in mid-February. The specifics of the deal were not disclosed.

“Our members never gave up, they pushed back on this company until they got a fair contract that recognizes their contributions. Teamsters don’t back down from a fight and we will always fight for what we deserve,” Jeff Padellaro, director of the Teamsters brewery, bakery and soft drink conference, said in a statement.

Despite the strike, the plant’s shutdown didn’t impact supplies of Molson Coors products.

For Molson Coors, putting the strike behind them means the company can get operations in its Fort Worth plant fully back to normal. The contract should satisfy the 400-plus workers who went on strike, said Adam Collins, Molson Coors’ chief communications officer.
