Taiwan: Finance ministry discussing protections for beer industry
|
Taiwan’s finance ministry is discussing protections for the beer industry as it investigates dumping accusations against Chinese beer exporters, Taiwan News reported on April 16.
The finance ministry said on Wednesday that it would produce guidelines to ensure beer labels clearly show the product’s origin. It also said it is discussing reducing tariffs on hops, malt, and other raw materials used by brewers, per CNA.
Speaking at the legislature, Finance Minister Chuang Tsui-yun said the ministry is investigating a complaint by the Taiwan Brewers Association alleging Chinese exporters are selling beer to Taiwan at prices that harm local producers.
Chuang said if the investigation finds dumping has occurred, the ministry’s tariff review body would review whether or not to impose anti-dumping taxes. Regarding labeling, Tsai said the treasury would publish a letter asking local governments to conduct thorough investigations to ensure the origin of domestic beer is clear to consumers.
Treasury Director Chen Pai-chen said the letter would inform businesses which items may lead consumers to believe products are produced somewhere they are not. Chen said the letter being drafted would also outline punishment for violators.

UK: Molson Coors launches Madrí Excepcional 0.0% in the UK

Molson Coors Beverage Company has launched Madrí Excepcional 0.0%, a zero-alcohol version of its popular Spanish style lager, which was created in partnership with La Sagra brewery in Spain, Belfast Telegraph reported on April 16.
As consumer demand for no- and low-alcohol world beer continues to grow, the alcohol-free lager has hit supermarket and convenience shelves and venues across Northern Ireland this month.
The number of drinkers choosing to moderate has also increased dramatically, up by 2.2m between 2016 and 2023, with more than half (53%) of 18–34-year-olds, and 59% of UK’s total adult population now trying to drink less alcohol. Some 64% of these no- and low-alcohol drinkers do so during at-home occasions.
Ann-Marie Brown, Customer Activation Manager NI at Molson Coors Beverage Company, said: “Consumers increasingly expect to see a no- and low-alcohol versions of their favourite beers. With Madri Excepcional fast becoming the flagship brand in the world beer category, launching 0.0% is a natural evolution for us.
“It means consumers can stick with one of their favourite beers, even when looking to moderate, and enables retailers to better cater for a growing no- and low-alcohol market, while still tapping into the popularity of the Madri Excepcional brand."
