Brewery news Australia: Government unveils new strategy to grow Western Australia's craft beer sector
The Cook Government on August 2 unveiled a new strategy to grow Western Australia's craft beer sector, create jobs and promote the industry's 'paddock to pint' tourism experience, WA.gov.au reported.

The inaugural Western Australian Craft Beer Strategy brings together all parts of the craft beer supply chain to drive forward a unified and sustainable industry.

The industry-led strategy aims to boost production, with the ambitious goal of tripling either the volume or value of locally produced beer over ten years.

It also strives to improve supply chain integration, including those that produce homegrown barley, hops and malt, and the local businesses that provide packaging, distribution and retail services.

WA is considered to be the birthplace of Australia's craft beer sector, with the establishment of a handful of now iconic breweries in Perthin the 1980s and '90s.

There are now more than 120 breweries across the metropolitan area and regional WA, representing 20 per cent of the national industry.

Beer manufacturing contributed an estimated $648 million to the WA economy in 2020-21, directly supporting around 967 full-time jobs and indirectly supporting more than 4,000 jobs across the State

The industry-led strategy was facilitated by the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development as a partnering initiative with the ...More info on site


Brewery news UK: Guinness 0.0 becomes UK’s biggest alcohol-free beer
Guinness 0.0 has surpassed Heineken 0.0 to claim the title of the UK’s biggest alcohol-free beer, The Grocer reported on July 31.

The booze-free tipple has seen its off-trade sales rise by nearly 110% to £33.2m in the past year [NIQ 52 w/e 13 July 2024]. Over the same period, Heineken 0.0 sales have only climbed by 4.2%, to £28.3m.

According to NIQ, Guinness 0.0 overtook Heineken 0.0 at the end of March, based on 52-week rolling data, and has maintained its lead since.

Rounding out the top five alcohol-free beers in UK retail are Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0%, Corona Cero and Beck’s Blue.

A focus on product quality, marketing activations around rugby’s Six Nations Championship and Diageo’s work with retailers to grow the awareness of alcohol-free had contributed to Guinness 0.0’s rise, Diageo GB managing director Nuno Teles told The Grocer.

“It’s the combination of a beautiful liquid, beautifully served in a nice branded pint glass around the sports viewing occasion,” he said.

Despite a growing number of consumers wanting to moderate their alcohol intake, many remained unaware of the existence of non-alcoholic propositions in off-trade settings, Teles claimed.

Therefore, Diageo had partnered with several retailers, including Waitrose, to grow the shelf space and visibility of ...More info on site


Brewery news South Africa: Heineken to step up investments in brands with ‘greatest long-term growth opportunities’
Amstel owner Heineken plans to step up investment in brands that carry the greatest long-term growth opportunities, including "notable increases" in marketing and sales in South Africa and other emerging markets, Az.com reported on July 31.

The Dutch-brewing giant has recently faced some pressure in terms of sale volumes in South Africa, but CEO Dolf van den Brink also told an investor conference call on July 29 that the company's local wine, Distell spirits, cider, and ready-to-drink portfolio outperformed the market in their respective categories.

This includes momentum behind the Savanna and Bernini brands, though he conceded that Heineken has "more work to do in the beer segment" in South Africa.

Van den Brink did not specify what this work on the group's beer portfolio entailed, but it is confident about reaching a target of €500 million for its 2024 year to end-December and will "reinvest a larger proportion of these savings into marketing and sales."

In February, when it released full-year results for its 2023 year, Heineken announced it was writing down its South Africa business by €491 million (about R10 billion), or 16%, under pressure from rising interest rates and volume declines.

It said at the time the lower current valuation of the ...More info on site

Barley news EU: EU introduces new maximum limits for T-2, HT-2 and DON mycotoxins in cereals and cereal products destined for food
As of 1 July 2024, the EU introduced new maximum limits for T-2, HT-2 and DON (deoxynivalenol) mycotoxins in cereals and cereal products destined for food which will impact exports both to EU member states and Northern Ireland, NFU reported on August 2.

Mycotoxins are produced by certain fungi and levels found in unprocessed and processed food products are closely monitored.

The EU has recently updated Regulation (EU) 2023/915 that sets limits on the levels of certain mycotoxins found in products produced in, or exported into, the EU.

The maximum level for DON (deoxynivalenol) has been lowered from 1250 ppb to 1000 ppb for unprocessed cereal grains (excluding oats).

The maximum level in unprocessed oat grains with husk remains at 1750 ppb.

A maximum level of 600 ppb has been set for DON in milling products of cereals.

Maximum levels (sum) of T-2 and HT-2 toxins have been set as follows, reflecting previous EU guidance levels.

• Unprocessed cereal grains (excluding barley) – 50 ppb. • Unprocessed barley grains (excluding malting barley) – 150 ppb. • Unprocessed malting barley grains – 200 ppb. • Unprocessed oat grains with husk – 1250 ppb. • Oats placed on market for final consumer – 100 ppb. • Milling products of oats – 100 ppb.

These maximum levels will apply to cereals ...More info on site
