Canada, ON: Haven Brewing Co. purchases High Road Brewing
|
Haven Brewing Co. has announced that it has purchased High Road Brewing, a contract brewer best known for its Bronan IPA brand, the Canadian Beer News reported on June 18.
In an interview with PTBO Today, Haven co-owner Nathan Anker said that “being able to bring in an already established brand was a no brainer from a business standpoint.”
High Road Brewing was launched in 2015 by Curtis Bentley and Rob Doyle, two experience brewers who decided to start their own company while working together at Mill Street Brewery. Their Bronan IPA was one of the first New England style IPAs to be brewed commercially in Ontario, and was most recently being brewed for them at Equals Brewing in London.
Haven Brewing is the latest iteration of the brewery that was founded in 2014 by brewmaster Graham Smith, his brother Randy, and Randy’s wife Kelly as Smithworks Brewing, located in a building that had previously been home to Kawartha Lakes Brewery. The Smiths renamed the brewery to Smithavens Brewing in 2016 due to a legal issue, and sold the company to brothers Nathan and Andrew Anker in April 2020, with the name change to Haven Brewing taking place earlier this year.

USA, CA: Lucky Luke Brewery to take over Wolf Creek Brewery’s Ly Canyon Loop site in Valencia
|
Wolf Creek Brewery announced this week that Lucky Luke Brewery will take over at the brewery’s Ly Canyon Loop site in Valencia, the California News Times reported on June 20.
Founded in 1997, Wolf Creek Brewery opened its doors as one of the first breweries in LA County and has since established one production brewery and one full-service restaurant.
Wolf Creek owners Rob and Rina McFeren started talking to Lucky Luke in early 2020 to discuss retirement plans, and Lucky Luke bought a brewery site a few years later.
Rob McFeren became ill in 2020 and died of cancer in December.
“We’ve had a great life in the craft beer community for over 24 years, and it’s finally time to hand over the torch,” Laina McFerren said in a prepared statement. “Rob knows that Lucky Luke wants to inherit the legacy of delicious craft beer in this space and give it back to the community that has supported us for many years.”
Lucky Luke started in Palmdale in 2015 and expanded to Lancaster’s second location in the spring of 2019 with a full-service restaurant. The acquisition will make Lucky Luke a third place, allowing it to produce 10 times more beer than its current production

USA, SD: Platte Creek Brewing Company aiming to put Geddes on the South Dakota craft beer radar
|
It’s already a destination for those looking for the Missouri River, camping and small-town food.
And now Platte Creek Brewing Company is aiming to put Geddes on the South Dakota craft beer radar, as well. Doug Dykstra, who has started the business with his wife, JoEllen, believes Geddes — population roughly 250 — is the smallest community in South Dakota with a craft brewery. The brewery’s taproom opened in May and hopes to start serving its own local beers in July, The Daily Republic reported on June 18.
Dykstra said it was those factors — the river and the nearby campgrounds and a couple of popular restaurants — that made him believe Geddes would be a good spot for the business, and he said Platte Creek is hoping to add to those offerings.
“If you come into town on a weeknight or on a weekend at night, there’s all kinds of vehicles on Main Street. It just has this draw,” he said. “We have two other establishments that have great meals, and so we know we have to be a little different than those. But that draw is what brings people into Geddes.”
The idea started about five years ago when the Dykstra family

USA, MN: Warrior Brewing Company holds its first beer canning
|
For two veterans ideas were brewing up for the past seven months, FOX21 reported on June 21.
Warrior Brewing Company in Duluth held their first canning of three unique beers. Local owners, Matt Caple and Ben Gipson met in the brewing industry while raising funds for veteran organizations.
They came together with a plan seven months ago and are ready for distribution. A portion of their profits will be donated to local veteran groups.
“Every month we’re gonna actually showcase a different veteran support group,” said co-owner Matt Caple. “This month we’re gonna have “strong compass” come in and they’re gonna help us brew up the barbarian which is our imperial stout, and then we’re going to barrel age it for a few months. And then those proceeds will go directly back to that organization.”
Warrior Brewing is offering a Barbarian Imperial Stout, Valkyrie Golden Honey Ale, and Patriot Lactose IPA. All three craft beers offer something different in flavor.
“It’s a big relief how that it’s finally in the can and everything is good to go,” said co-owner Ben Gipson. “Super excited about it.”
Warrior Brewing Company will be distributing beers to local grocery and liquor stores in Wisconsin and Minnesota. The brewing company also

San Miguel Corp. (SMC) said that it will be issuing the P30-billion first tranche of its shelf-registered P50-billion fixed-rate bonds next month, BusinessWorld Online reported on June 22.
The first tranche consists of P20-billion fixed-rate bonds, with an oversubscription option of up to P10 billion. It is comprised of six-year Series I bonds due 2027 with a 3.3832% per annum rate with a put option or repricing on the third year and optional redemption on the fourth year or the fifth year.
“The bonds will be listed in the Philippine Dealing & Exchange Corp. on the issue date, July 8, 2021,” SMC said in a disclosure to the stock exchange on June 22.

San Miguel received approval for the registration statement of the company’s shelf-registration of P50-billion fixed-rate bonds and the permit to sell the first tranche from the Securities and Exchange Commission dated June 21.

Singapore: ThaiBev yet to review proposed spin-off listing of BeerCo
|
Thai Beverage has yet to review the proposed spin-off listing of BeerCo after the plan was deferred last 16 April, the Singapore Business Review reported on June 22.
The company deferred the listing over uncertain market conditions and volatile outlook, worsened by the pandemic that hit Thailand.
“ThaiBev continues to believe that BeerCo's position as one of the leading beer players in Southeast Asia and its growth potential offer a distinct and compelling growth story,” the company said in response to queries.
The company said it is closely monitoring market conditions and explore opportunities.
“The Proposed Spin-off Listing will be reviewed at the appropriate time by ThaiBev with its advisors,” the company also said.
It has yet to determine the offer price for the initial public offering as well as whether ThaiBev shareholders will be allowed to participate directly or indirectly in the IPO.
The company noted the use of proceeds may also differ from what was initially announced last February.
“ThaiBev continues to maintain the view that the Proposed Spin-off Listing, at the appropriate time and under the right circumstances, would be in the interests of Shareholders.”

India & the Netherlands: SEBI exempts Heineken from open offer obligation in United Breweries case
|
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) on June 22 granted an open offer exemption to Heineken International for acquiring additional stake in United Breweries, CNBC TV reported.
According to SEBI, Heineken International had sought exemption from an open offer on June 7 and June 20, which was for a proposed acquisition of a maximum 3.96 crore equity shares (14.99%) of United Breweries.
Heineken International currently holds about 9.28 percent stake in United Breweries and after the proposed transaction, its stake will go all the way up to 24.27 percent.
The matter was referred to the panel of experts (takeover panel) by SEBI. Since the recovery officer was in possession of the shares pursuant to the order of Debt Recovery Tribunal and the applicant (Heineken International) is already a promoter and is in control of the company, SEBI’s takeover panel advised in favour of granting an open offer emption.
SEBI’s takeover panel also considered giving Heineken International an exemption from open offer requirement in light of public interest since the transaction would also help public sector banks recover their dues.
The Competition Commission Of India (CCI), on June 21 also approved additional stake purchase in United Breweries by Heineken International.

UK: Farmers and brewers team up to explore hop varieties for sustainable beer market
|
Farmers and brewers are teaming up to begin a three-year trial to identify disease resistant hop varieties to feed UK demand for low-impact beer, FarmingUK reported on June 22.
Brewers and hop merchants say demand for environmentally friendly beer and locally-sourced ingredients has accelerated since the pandemic.
But there is a lack of UK-grown organic hops, with currently only three such growers supplying the market.
Hops are notoriously vulnerable to disease and pests in the UK’s temperate climate, leaving conventional growers heavily reliant on a dwindling number of agro-chemicals, and organic growers facing two-in-five crop failures.
To tackle this issue, the field lab, run through the Innovative Farmers programme, is bringing hop growers together with the Organic Research Centre to co-design practical on-farm research.
“UK-grown organic hops are very difficult to get hold of," said Greg Pilley, field lab coordinator and founder of Stroud Brewery, one of only five dedicated organic breweries in the UK.
"The challenge of growing them is the largest barrier to increasing production of UK organic beer.
“By collaborating as a supply chain, we’re aiming to identify varieties that farmers can grow more confidently.
"As a brewer I’d like to have regular UK supplies of organic hops – there is also a huge variety

Spain: Mahou San Miguel the beer of choice across most regions in Spain
|
During 2020 and the coronavirus pandemic beer consumption fell in Spain although many people tested out what was the best beer at home, the Euro Weekly News reported on June 22.
The ongoing coronavirus pandemic saw beer consumption fall by two litres per person in 2020, and come in at a still staggering 50 litres each. While the hospitality industry saw their businesses hit, beer consumption at home soared.
Spaniards drank a staggering 20.4 million hectolitres of beer which had been bought in shops and supermarkets across Spain to be drunk in the comfort of people’s own homes.
The Spanish Brewers’ Association reports that 83.4 per cent of adults in Spain drink beer, and this is just the percentage of those that admit to it.
Spain has many different beers of exceptional quality and the sales battle is on between the brands in the different autonomous communities. Each autonomous community in Spain seems to have their own preferred beer.
Madrid sees Mahou as the beer of choice while in Galicia, first choice has to be Estrella.
According to Kantar’s Brand Footprint 2021 study, as reported by El Espanol: “the Mahou San Miguel brand is the leader in the regions of Asturias, Baleares, Castilla y León, Castilla-La

India: United Spirits launches premium craft whisky
|
Liquor major United Spirits Ltd. (USL), owned by British Diageo Plc, has launched United’s Epitome Reserve - a premium craft whisky that sets the stage for the company’s entry into the craft spirits market that has gained popularity among India’s young, urban tipplers, Livemint reported on June 21.
Epitome Reserve is priced at par with USL’s high-end imported scotch whiskies, the company said. These bottles are available on request or in very select premium outlets. Only 2,000 such bottles are available in the first batch.
Epitome Reserve is a small batch, craft, artisanal whisky made of 100% rice. It is also the most premium Indian whisky sold by USL in the country.
The launch is set to capitalise on growing demand for premium spirits and locally crafted spirits in India, said Deepika Warrier, chief marketing officer, Diageo India.
“Over the last year and a half, we've seen that consumers—in the absence of being able to travel or socialise or go out and have the best food and beverage experiences—have been experimenting with premium spirits at home with do-it-yourself or DIY experiences. That has become part of small, intimate celebrations and they are just savouring and experiencing new kinds of liquids," Warrier said.
