Brewery news Malaysia: Carlsberg Brewery Malaysia invests in capacity expansion and optimisation of energy usage
Carlsberg Brewery Malaysia Bhd has invested RM200 million to upgrade to its bottling and canning lines alongside high-precision filtration systems, The Edge Malaysia reported on November 13.

On top of that, the brewery spent over RM143 million on energy-efficient and resource-optimising production technologies, as well as workplace safety upgrades, its managing director Stefano Clini showcased the newly upgraded facilities.

The upgrades on the canning line, according to him, are expected to result in an increase of 33% to its production capacity, reduction of water waste by 47%, and a cut in energy consumption by 42%, according to Carlsberg Malaysia.

Meanwhile, the bottling line is expected to reduce water usage by 14% and energy usage by 21% with the upgrades.

For its beer filtration plant, the upgrades are expected to result in enhanced production capability of 33%, reducing water wastage by 18%, and a complete 100% improvement in energy savings.

Speaking to the media, Clini highlighted that the new lines have already resulted in improved production speed and capacity, allowing the company to better meet demand, especially during peak periods like Chinese New Year, which will fall in January 2025.

The improved efficiency, the managing director added, also reduces the need for excessive stockpiling, which in turn ...More info on site

Brewery news Russia: Baltika Brewing in talks to buy two large Russian beer maker
Baltika Brewing Company LLC is holding negotiations to buy two large breweries in Chuvashia and Tatarstan, Buket Chuvashii and Bulgarpivo, business daily Vedomosti reported on November 14, citing three sources familiar with the progress of the talks.

Baltika is interested in Buket Chuvashii primarily because it has its own malt production, one of the sources told the paper.

The deal is already in the approval process at the Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS).

The sources did not specify the price. Analysts estimate the two breweries are worth about 3 billion rubles, the paper said.

Baltika's press service declined to comment, and Buket Chuvashii, Bulgarpivo and the FAS did not respond to questions, Vedomosti said.

Buket Chuvashii, which opened in 1974, has capacity to produce over 80 million liters of beer annually. It also produces barley and rye malt, kvas and other products, and operates 22 stores under the Diky Los brand.

Bulgarpivo, which was founded in Naberezhnye Chelny in 1981, is the "largest brewery in the Kama region," according to its website. The brewery makes 40 types of products, including beer, kvas, nonalcoholic beverages, and mineral and drinking water, and has capacity to produce 130 million liters per year.

Brewery news Vietnam: Special consumption tax on alcoholic beverages requires careful study – economists
Further comprehensive and in-depth studies must be carried out to fully evaluate the impact of a proposed tax increase on alcoholic beverages, said participants at a conference to gather opinions and feedback on the proposed tax organised by the Vietnam Economic Association (VEA) in Hanoi on November 14.

Economists and industry experts said a balanced approach is required in implementing the changes to Vietnam's special consumption tax law, which will see tax double for alcoholic beverages from 2026 to 2030.

Professor Chu Van Lam, vice president of the VEA, said the industry has considered the tax hike as a pressing issue, garnering attention from all players in the industry and other related industries.

Lam said opponents of the tax hike are raising significant concerns, including the lack of a comprehensive study on how different tax rates will affect the industry in the short, medium and long term.

"Only after studying different scenarios can we determine the optimal approach to ensure the feasibility of our objectives," he said.

The VEA stressed the importance of treading slowly, given the current economic context, in order to improve public health and quality of life as well as the ability of businesses to adapt.

Brewery news UK: Kingfisher Ultra beer coming to the UK
Kingfisher Drinks is launching Kingfisher Ultra, its premium world beer (ABV 5%), in the UK, KamCity reported on November 11.

Kingfisher Ultra debuted in India fifteen years ago and is now one of the country’s fastest-growing beer brands, with a compound annual growth rate of 20% between 2021-2023. It is brewed with a six-step filtration process and no additives, giving the liquid a natural golden hue. A distinct and stylish clear glass bottle and unique pull-crown lid add a premium look and feel.

The company noted that consumers are generally drinking less but better these days, so Ultra responds to that need. In India, the brand has built its reputation on tapping into premium associations, such as sponsoring premium festivals, fashion shows, and other top end events, which typically attract more affluent consumers.

Andy Sunnucks, Senior Brand Manager at Kingfisher Drinks, said: “We are delighted to introduce Kingfisher Ultra to the UK market. Those who have been lucky enough to try it in India will know that it is the gold standard! In fact, since launching in its home market back in 2009, Kingfisher Ultra has taken India by storm, becoming a bedrock of premium occasions, so we’re excited to confirm that it’s ...More info on site

Barley news UK: Winter barley variety Buccaneer gains full approval for brewing
High-yielding winter barley variety Buccaneer has gained full approval for brewing – a welcome addition to what was an otherwise limited approved malting variety list, Farmers Weekly reported on November 13.

Buccaneer now joins Craft, Electrum and Flagon as Malting Barley Committee (MBC) approved winter malting barley varieties as the commitee gave the variety the green light at its autumn 2024 meeting.

Jonathan Arnold, barley buyer at Robin Appel, notes the approval of the two-row variety has arrived in good time.

“The winter barley area has slipped away – one of the reasons being that it is often grown as an entry for OSR and is omitted from the rotation when OSR is dropped.

“There has been significant breeding emphasis on feed varieties rather than malting, so it is a welcome addition for industry,” he says.

“With good premiums available I think this variety will certainly turn a few farmers’ heads.

“We’ve got a good commercial crop in the ground and demand for autumn 2025 is set to be strong.”

Buccaneer offers high yields with a good disease package.

It has a Recommended List untreated yield of 87%, and treated yield of 99%, putting it at the top of the table.

“The strong yield factor is critical for farmers ...More info on site
