The Czech Republic: Czech brewers export record volume last year
|
Czech breweries exported a record 6.13 million hectolitres of beer last year, the Czech Statistical Office announced in Prague on February 14.
The largest volumes of Czech beer were consumed in Slovakia, Germany, Poland and Russia.
Tomás Slunecko, executive chairman of the Czech Breweries Association, drew attention to the fact that beer consumption has been steadily increasing in recent years even in countries that were previously known for consuming wine or other alcoholic beverages.
“A good example of this is Spain, Portugal and France. In these countries, Czech beer is also becoming increasingly popular alongside local beers,” the president told reporters.
He explained that the demand for Czech beer is partly due to the fact that products from Czech breweries, such as the best-known product of the long-established Japanese-owned Pilsen brewery Prazdroj, Pilsner Urquell, are sold at affordable prices abroad. “It is unfortunate that the prices of many popular beers have risen too much at home (in the Czech Republic), which has led to stagnation or a decrease in demand,” the beer industry expert noted.
The state-owned Budejovicky Budvar brewery last year delivered a record 1.9 million hectolitres of beer to its foreign customers, representing 70 percent of its production.

South Korea: Non-alcoholic beer gaining momentum in South Korea
|
Non-alcoholic beverages are increasingly becoming a buzzword among drinkers in Korea, with those in their 20s and 30s leading the trend. Non-alcoholic drinks in Korea contain less than 1 percent alcohol, while alcohol-free drinks are below 0.05 percent alcohol, The Korea Times reported on February 13.
The trend reflects the shift in young consumers' drinking culture, favoring healthier options over getting excessively drunk and feeling sick later on. Beer companies have begun introducing non-alcoholic products to cater to this trend, which is not limited to Korea. Globally, the trend is gaining momentum, with new terms like "NoLo" (non- or low-alcohol) and "sober curious" emerging.
The most evident sign of the nonalcohol trend is that breweries of all sizes here have begun releasing non-alcoholic products and focusing their marketing on the emerging consumer trend.
Lotte Chilsung Beverage, one of the country's top three beer companies, released Kloud Non Alcoholic last month, with an alcohol content of less than 1 percent. It still retains the flavor of the original Kloud, according to the company.
Lotte Chilsung previously introduced alcohol-free beers which are said to contain almost no alcohol at all. With the release of Kloud Non Alcoholic, a company official stated that the product represents the

India: United Breweries may raise beer prices further in India's Telangana
|
United Breweries may raise beer prices further in India's Telangana, a top official said, days after the country's largest beer-consuming state permitted brands to do so for the first time in five years, The Economic Times reported on February 14.
The southern Indian state's decision on February 11 came as a much-needed reprieve for the company, which had briefly halted its supply to the state.
The Kingfisher beer maker, majority-owned by Dutch liquor giant Heineken, had earlier this year said it was facing delayed payments and a lack of government approval for price increases for about five years.
The company has a 70% market share in Telangana and brings in 15% to 20% of its revenue from the state, where it is currently not profitable.
United Breweries is "not fully out of the red" in Telangana, CEO Vivek Gupta said on an earnings call, adding that the company expects another price increase in the state in the "very, very near foreseeable future".
Separately, United Breweries also said beer sales in January was weak, partly due to the supply halt in Telangana, even as it added sales had rebounded in February. It did not directly quantify the impact of the supply halt.
On February 13, United Breweries

Canada: Tight barley supply may lead to more US corn imports in Canada
|
Trade, tariffs and Trump have dominated the agricultural news headlines for the first five weeks of 2025, The Western Producer reported on February 13.
Lost in the all the noise is that corn futures have climbed and are now trading around US$5 per bushel.
The March corn contract on the Chicago Board of Trade was above US$4.90 per bu. during the first week of February.
Meanwhile, the May futures contract has topped $5 per bu. – its highest level since the fall of 2023.
Mike Jubinville, senior markets analyst with Glacier MarketsFarm, noticed in January that corn was gaining momentum.
“The corn market lifting off its lows and coming up to one-year highs,” Jubinville said at Manitoba Ag Days in Brandon last month.
“If this thing (corn) seems to be making a move, will it drag the other commodities, oilseeds and wheat with it?”
Considering the uncertainly around U.S. president Donald Trump and American trade policies, it’s nearly impossible to predict the future trajectory for commodity markets.
However, there was positive news for corn and the larger market for feed grains on Feb. 6.
The Mexican government changed its position on genetically modified corn imports, saying measures to prohibit the use of GM corn in Mexico were “ineffective.”

Canada: Feed barley prices strengthening in Western Canada
|
Feed barley prices in Western Canada were strengthening in early February, although activity was somewhat limited given the threat of tariffs from the United States still overhanging the North American markets, Grainews reported on February 13.
Feed barley into the key Lethbridge feeding area was priced at C$305 to C$310 per tonne as of Feb. 7, according to the Alberta government’s weekly market review. That was up by about C$5 per tonne over the past month.
Meanwhile, delivered corn prices rose by a similar amount over that time, coming in at roughly C$334 per tonne into Lethbridge in early February.
Canadian imports of U.S. corn remain well off what was coming up a year ago, with only 77,300 tonnes imported as of Feb. 6 during the marketing year that began at the start of September, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data. That compares with 533,900 tonnes at the same point a year ago. In addition, there are only 35,200 tonnes of outstanding U.S. corn sales to Canada, well below the 283,500 tonnes on the books at the same time a year ago.
Meanwhile, Canadian barley exports are running about 16 per cent ahead of the year-ago pace, with 1.07 million tonnes exported as
