Brewery news Japan & India: Kirin Holdings in talks to exit crisis-hit Bira 91
Japan’s Kirin Holdings, the largest investor in Bira 91 maker B9 Beverages, is in talks with founder Ankur Jain to exit the crisis-hit company, several people familiar with the matter told ET.

Kirin, one of Japan’s top three liquor companies alongside Asahi and Suntory, held a 20.1% stake in B9 Beverages as of June 2025, ahead of Jain’s 17.8%. When Kirin first invested in 2021, it was viewed as a long-term backer. But the company has since reconsidered its global strategy and is looking to divest some alcoholic beverage assets. The company has also hired EY to sell the debt it provided to B9 Beverages in two tranches.

Kirin initially invested about $30 million in January 2021 through a mix of debt and equity. It provided another loan last year along with Tiger Pacific. Alongside Kirin, major investors in B9 Beverages include Peak XV with a 14.6% stake and Sofina with 6.4%. The remaining shares are held by family offices and financial investors, reported ET.

B9 Beverages has been under severe pressure after a major business disruption last year. The company changed its legal name to ‘B9 Beverages Limited’ from ‘B9 Beverages Private Limited’ as part of its IPO plans. The shift required ...More info on site


Brewery news Italy: Assobirra calls for a reduction in beer excise duties
Budget law time and Italy’s Assobirra is back to call for a reduction in excise duties, last year achieved only for small breweries, to allow increased investments in a sector that is not losing its growth potential, in the face, however, of consumption that has been falling for a couple of years after a period of strong growth, Il Sole 24 Ore reported on November 17.

The request is to reduce excise duty on beer from 2.99 to 2.97 euro per hectolitre and Grado Plato, with an estimated cost of 4.7 million euro in 2026; according to Assobirra "a limited but strategic investment to support a sector that generates widespread wealth and skilled employment", recalling that "the industry generates 10.4 billion euros of shared value, employs around 112 thousand people and, to date, each production worker creates 31 jobs along the supply chain. In ten years, beer has produced 92 billion in wealth and 24 thousand new jobs, contributing around 4 billion euro a year to general taxation, of which 1.5 billion in VAT and 689 million in excise duties in 2024'.

In the last two years, however, there has been a decline in all parameters, aggravated by the increase in excise ...More info on site


Brewery news Democratic Republic of Congo: Heineken transfers brewery in war-hit eastern Congo to Mauritian firm
Heineken has agreed to transfer its brewery in Bukavu, the second largest city in war-hit eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, to a Mauritian company for 1 euro, the Dutch brewer said in a statement on November 19, after losing operational control of the facility earlier this year.

The handover of the brewery to Synergy Ventures Holdings Ltd is expected to be completed by the end of the year, the statement said.

The decision was "driven by a humanitarian objective to safeguard jobs and livelihoods, maintain vital community services and prevent misuse of the facility in a volatile security environment," it said.

Rwanda-backed M23 rebels staged a lightning advance in eastern Congo this year, seizing the region's largest city Goma in January, followed by Bukavu in February. The fighting has killed thousands of people and displaced hundreds of thousands more.

Rwanda has long denied helping M23 and says its forces act in self-defence.

The U.S., Qatar and African mediators are trying to broker a peace deal that would attract Western investments to the region, especially its minerals sector.

In June, Heineken said armed personnel had taken control of its facilities in Bukavu and elsewhere in the region. The company had previously said the Bukavu facilities employed around ...More info on site


Brewery news Thailand: Thailand tightens alcohol rules
People in Thailand wanting to quench their thirst with an afternoon tipple risk steep fines from Nov 8 under amended alcohol control legislation that strengthens enforcement and significantly tightens restrictions around marketing and advertising, the Straits Times reported on November 8.

Alcohol sales in Thailand have been banned at most retail outlets and supermarkets between the hours of 2pm and 5pm since 1972, but changes to The Alcoholic Beverage Control Act that take effect on Nov 8 now mean individuals can be fined 10,000 baht (S$402) or more for drinking or being served alcoholic beverages during prohibited times or in prohibited places.

Some media reports also say the prohibition runs from midnight to 11am.

Although there are exemptions for licensed entertainment venues, hotels, certified establishments in tourist areas and airports offering international flights, the onus has been shifted to consumers, and the tightened laws also prohibit advertising of alcoholic beverages unless the content is purely factual.

The use of celebrities, influencers or public figures to promote alcoholic beverages for commercial purposes is also banned.

The new regulations will have an adverse effect on restaurants because it is the customer that is now “restricted” by the stipulated sale hours, said Mr Chanon Koetcharoen, president of the ...More info on site
