Brewery news EU & USA: Heineken open to moving production to US
Dutch brewer Heineken's shares slid over 8% on July 28 as a forecast-beating profit rise was eclipsed by investor worries over second-half profits and volumes, which Heineken warned may be softer as tariffs weigh on confidence, Reuters reported.

The world's No.2 brewer welcomed a trade deal struck between the European Union and the United States and said on Monday that it was weighing all options to deal with growing tariff challenges in the long term, including shifting manufacturing.

Its shares closed down 8.45% despite a 7.4% rise in first-half profit, above analyst estimates, for which it credited growth in once-difficult regions like Africa and Asia as well as cost savings. Beer sales volumes, however, dipped 1.2%.

Analysts and investors pointed to Heineken's warning that volumes would be softer than expected for the remainder of the year as U.S. President Donald Trump's trade salvos disrupt markets in the Americas. A price dispute with retailers meanwhile dented sales in Europe.

The company exports beer, especially its namesake lager, to the U.S. from Europe and Mexico, and has also suffered from the indirect impact on consumer confidence in key markets like Brazil.

CEO Dolf van den Brink welcomed the certainty brought by the trade deal clinched on Sunday, ...More info on site


Brewery news South Korea: Korea relaxes food additive standards to enhance non-alcoholic beer flavor
South Korea’s Ministry of Food and Drug Safety recently announced plans to relax food additive standards to allow the use of modified hop extract in non-alcoholic beer. Previously, this ingredient was only permitted for use in regular beer, and this measure aims to enable its application in non-alcoholic products as well. With this revision, domestic non-alcoholic beer is expected to further achieve a 'beer-like taste', Chosunbiz reported on July 28.

The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety completed a complete revision of the 'Standards and Specifications for Food Additives' on the 22nd. The Ministry stated, "This revision was made to enhance user convenience by restructuring the standards and specifications of food additives to meet international regulatory levels while rationally improving the usage standards of food additives to support the development of diverse food products." Until now, modified hop extract was only permitted in beer and could not be applied to non-alcoholic beer, which is not classified as alcoholic.

Non-alcoholic beer is a rapidly growing category both domestically and internationally. However, it has often been criticized for not matching the taste and aroma of regular beer. Consumer feedback has particularly pointed to the weak flavor and bitterness characteristic of hops.

According to Food Safety ...More info on site

WhiskyWhisky News Whisky


Whisky news USA: Suntory to consider price increases for its whisky in the US
Suntory Holdings will consider price increases in line with consumer sentiment for ultra-premium whisky it exports to the U.S., after the two countries struck a trade deal that set tariffs on imported Japanese goods at 15%, The Japan Times reported on July 29.

"We have to learn and read the sentiment in the United States,” Co-Chairman and CEO Takeshi Niinami said on Tuesday.

The beverage giant could still consider raising U.S. prices for premium whisky lines, Niinami said. That’s despite Suntory’s feeling — like many other Japanese firms — that the tariff is a "relief” and that it can absorb some of the added costs, he said.

Niinami said the company is "overreliant on the U.S. and Japan” and has realized the importance of emerging markets including China, Southeast Asian nations and India. Suntory said in April that it could shift products to its home market and other countries in Asia if tariffs were to make its whisky prohibitively pricey in America.

The trade pact reached earlier this month will impose levies on imports including automobiles from Japan, a key U.S. ally, while creating a $550 billion fund to make investments in America.
