Canada: Number of brewing facilities up 8% in 2020
|
The beer and brewing industry in Canada faced various challenges and changes amid COVID-19 in 2020, Beer Canada said in its latest annual Industry Trends report.
The number of brewing facilities increased by 8.0%, from 1120 in 2019 to 1210 in 2020. Most of Canada’s breweries are small, local operations, with 94% producing less than 15,000 hectolitres of beer. Nationally, the number of brewing facilities per 100,000 drinking age adults increased by 8.1% from 3.7 to 4.0 for the year. The increase decelerated significantly from last year's increase of 11%.
Provincially, New Brunswick led the way with 9.4 breweries per 100,000 drinking age adults, followed by Nova Scotia with 8.7 and Prince Edward Island with 7.8. In comparison, Manitoba, at 1.9 breweries per 100,000 drinking age adults, had the lowest rate.
Domestic production was down for 2020, having decreased by 0.3% to 22,674,000 hectolitres. Total national beer sales declined by 1.4% in 2020 to 21,118,230 hl. Domestic sales remained relatively unchanged, where import sales declined by 8%.
Beer continues to have a substantial impact on Canada’s economy. Conference Board of Canada figures show beer supports 149,000 Canadian jobs, with a labour income of $5.3 billion while contributing $13.6 billion to Canada’s GDP.

USA: Constellation Brands’ beer unit posts 14% net sales growth in the three months through August
|
Constellation Brands posted on October 6 sales up 5% on an organic basis to $2.37 billion in the three months through August, representing its fiscal second quarter, with its beer business in double-digit growth and its upscale wine portfolio led by The Prisoner, Kim Crawford, and Meiomi contributing solid momentum.
Operating income slipped 8% to $730 million on an organic basis, however, weighed down by increased costs and a slowdown in the hard seltzer business.
Constellation’s organic wine and spirits sales jumped 15% to $510 million for the quarter, as organic shipment volume increased 5.7%. The company touted newcomers Meiomi Cabernet Sauvignon, Kim Crawford Illuminate, and The Prisoner Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay as all being among the top 10 innovations at the high end of the U.S. wine category in IRI channels since their respective rollouts. Most recently, SND exclusively reported the launch of former Prisoner offshoot Saldo as its own brand, in a bid to further tap the high end.
Looking ahead, Constellation will continue to leverage innovation, expanding the Woodbridge brand with wine seltzers, sparkling infusions, and a 3-liter box format, and is also aiming to widen distribution of Svedka’s RTD cocktails. The company also noted that its wine and

USA, ID: Idaho barley production down by 21% this year
|
Idaho remains the US top barley-producing state this year despite total barley production in the state decreasing by 21 percent compared with 2020, marketscreener.com reported on October 1.
According to USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service, Idaho farmers produced 43.6 million bushels of barley in 2021, down from 55 million bushels in 2020.
The decreased production was due to significantly reduced yields caused by severe drought conditions and a major early-season heat wave.
"Yields were off quite a bit from what they should have been," said Teton farmer Dwight Little.
"All of our yields for both wheat and barley were about 60-70 percent of normal," said Tim Dillin, who farms under dryland conditions in Bonners Ferry, which normally gets a good amount of rainfall. "We just didn't get the spring rains we normally get and the heat just made it worse."
Gordon Gallup, who farms under dryland conditions in Ririe, said his barley yields were way down this year. He said the lack of precipitation this year was bad enough but a string of 100-degree days in June exacerbated the situation.
"It was a combination of the drought and heat," he said. "I never remember 100-degree temperatures in June. If there ever were, it was only for

USA, ID: Idaho farmers offered a lot more money to grow barley next year
|
Idaho barley farmers are being offered a lot more money to grow their crop next year, marketscreener.com reported on September 30.
Major beer brewers are aggressively pursuing contracts with Idaho farmers to grow barley next year and the amount they are offering is well above what barley farmers are normally paid for their commodity.
Rupert farmer Mike Wilkins normally gets paid between $9.50 and $10 per hundredweight (cwt) for his barley. He will be paid $14 per cwt for his barley next year.
"This is the highest price I've seen since I've been growing barley," said Wilkins, who has grown the crop for three decades.
Idaho farmers typically grow about a third of the nation's barley crop.
Malt barley is a critical part of the beer-brewing process and about 75 percent of the barley produced in Idaho is malt barley, while the rest is used for human food or animal feed.
Most of the malt barley produced in Idaho is purchased by major beer companies such as Anheuser-Busch and Molson Coors.
The vast majority of Idaho's malt barley crop is grown under contract and major brewing companies are aggressively seeking contracts for next year, said Laura Wilder, executive director of the Idaho Barley Commission.
These companies are contracting

USA, FL: Dissent Craft Brewing to open new location in Lakeland
|
Dissent Craft Brewing, known for its “outspoken ales,” plans to open its downtown Lakeland location on Oct. 15 in a 2,000-square-foot storefront at 125 S. Kentucky Ave. next to Pita Pit. It is Dissent’s first expansion beyond its St. Petersburg base, lkldnow.com reported on September 29.
“We’re excited. We’re glad the end is in sight and looking forward to get going and be a part of the community,” said co-owner Chis Price, 42, of Tampa.
Dissent announced on Facebook it plans a soft opening with limited hours on Oct. 7-10.
Julie Townsend, executive director of the Lakeland Downtown Development Authority, believes the brewery will benefit the downtown area.
“I like the idea that Dissent is a local brewery out of St. Pete that is expanding to our area. Folks look for craft breweries as a destination, so I definitely think its addition is positive for downtown,” she said.
Price is one of the founders of the first Dissent Craft Brewing location in St. Petersburg, which opened in 2017 at 5518 Haines Road in a strip shopping center.
“We’ve had two new owners come on in the last 24 months and one of the owners lives in Lakeland. When we started looking around, he obviously suggested Lakeland.

USA, CA: Crooked Goat Brewing starts build out process in Petaluma
|
Crooked Goat Brewing, a Sebastopol craft brewer, announced on social media on Sept. 22 that they have started the build out process at the vacant property at the corner of Howard and Western in Petaluma, presumably for brewery and dining operations, the Petaluma Argus Courier reported on September 29.
Many a beer fan has eyed this site as a great spot for a brewery, but of course, it is easy to make suggestions but a whole other thing to actually make it happen. Although there were few details in Crooked Goat’s post, it did include photos of both buildings so it can be assumed both will be part of this project. They estimate their opening in early 2022.
Many have been waiting for more downtown breweries, as Petaluma has seen wine tasting rooms expanding over the past several years. When Dempsey’s shutdown, downtown Petaluma had no brewery tasting rooms, so, along with the announcement that Adobe Creek Brewing is working on a tasting room at Theatre Square, this news about Crooked Goat has beer lovers rejoicing. In the meantime, if you want get a taste for what Crooked Goat brews, Charley’s Wine Country Deli at Petaluma Boulevard South and H Street has

USA, GA: Inner Voice Brewing now open for business in downtown Decatur
|
Inner Voice Brewing is open for business in the former Big Tex location on West Ponce de Leon Avenue in downtown Decatur, Decaturish.com reported on September 30.
And it’s been a long time coming for owners Josh Johnson and Rhett Caseman. They signed the lease in January 2020. Right around when they would have started construction, the COVID-19 pandemic hit. Johnson and Caseman couldn’t get approval for their plans because many city of Decatur offices closed for several months.
“So we were stuck with an empty building we couldn’t do anything with,” Caseman told Decaturish. “That was one of the most difficult times. We’re first-time business owners, we’re young guys, we’ve got a lot on the line personally and as far as our investors go.”
Johnson and Caseman met in 2013 while working for Monday Night Brewing. They later worked part-time at Variant Brewing Company in Roswell while planning to open a spot of their own.
The pair took advantage of a state law passed in 2017 that allowed breweries and distilleries to sell directly to customers.
Caseman said they decided to go the brewery route instead of a brewpub because they’not required to produce at least half of their revenue through food sales.

USA, WI: Central Waters Milwaukee Pilot Brewery and Taproom sets an October opening date
|
Central Waters Milwaukee Pilot Brewery and Taproom has set an October opening date, the brewing company announced on social media.
The Milwaukee brewery and taproom is located in the former Captain Pabst Pilot House, 1037 W. Juneau Ave., which is in a historic 145-year old building on the original Pabst Brewing complex. It plans to open at 11 a.m. Oct. 16.
This is Amherst-based Central Waters Brewing Co.'s second location.
"My first memory of beer was my father drinking Pabst," co-owner Anello Mollica said in a previous Milwaukee Journal Sentinel interview. He owns Central Waters with longtime friend Paul Graham.
Brews that Central Waters makes in Amherst will continue to be exclusively brewed there, and different styles will be made solely at the Milwaukee brewery. The locations will share offerings.
The crew is using the 10-barrel brewing system Pabst left behind and brewed on it for the first time last week. The first beer they made on it is called Ode, an American lager that pays "homage to the history of Pabst" and its former space, Mollica said.
Central Waters staples that will be available to Milwaukee patrons include its "No. 1 product" Mudpuppy Porter, Honey Blonde Ale, HHG Pale

USA, NM: Downshift Brewing plans to officially open in Albuquerque this November or December
|
New Mexico’s former highest ranking law enforcement official is getting into the craft brewing scene with the opening of a new brewery in Albuquerque’s Old Town Plaza, the Albuquerque Journal reported on October 1.
Jointly owned by former New Mexico State Police chief Pete Kassetas and his nephew, Cody Huffmon, Downshift Brewing at Outpost 1706 is opening temporarily for the two weekends of the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta with plans to officially open this November or December.
The taproom, located on the second floor of 301 Romero NW in Old Town, will be the Albuquerque location for the Ruidoso-based brewery which is set to open in Ruidoso later this year.
Kassetas said plans for the brewery began earlier this year when Kassetas began managing the Plaza Don Luis property, which overlooks the west side of the Old Town Plaza.
Kassetas said Huffmon approached him with the idea to open a restaurant, but the pair ultimately decided to open a brewery instead.
“We think that the more breweries in the area that are responsibly doing alcohol service is important to the tourists, because we’re almost known as a brewery destination now, but also we want to bring locals in,” Kassetas said.

USA, MN: Big Wood Brewery to move its operations to Vadnais Heights
|
When neighbors balked at a proposal to build apartments on city-owned land, Vadnais Heights leaders decided to let residents devise a plan for the property, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported on October 1.
Members of a citizen task force said they wanted a destination brewery or distillery and community gathering space on the 3-acre site near the shores of Lake Vadnais. More than a year later, the Ramsey County suburb's experiment with a new, populist form of community development appears to be working.
Big Wood Brewery signed a purchase agreement with the city this fall with plans to move its taproom and production operations from downtown White Bear Lake to the new site.
"We are going to be taking it and transforming it into something cool," said Big Wood Brewery owner Jason Medvec, describing his vision for an expanded taproom, indoor and outdoor gathering spaces and a live music venue. "It's about a half mile off the freeway but you feel like you are getting away."
The brewery will pay $225,000 for the property and is expected to close on the sale by the end of the year, according to city staff. They intend to renovate the shuttered Garceau's Hardware building on the site,

UK: Cask beer sales plummet by 40% since April pub reopening
|
The British Beer and Pub Association (BBPA) has urged a rallying call to support cask beer as sales plummeted by 40% since pubs reopened in April, The Drinks Business reported on September 27.
According to the latest sales data from the BBPA – the leading trade association representing brewers and pubs – cask beer sales since pubs reopened after the winter lockdown were down by 76 million pints compared with 2019.
From April 2021 to July 2021, 113 million pints of cask ale were sold in pubs across the UK. During the same period in 2019 and before the pandemic, 189 million pints were sold.
Emma McClarkin, Chief Executive of the British Beer & Pub Association, said: “The plight of cask beer is a huge concern for our sector. Pubs are the home of cask beer so if sales of it are declining then it means the viability of our pubs are reducing too.
“We all missed a proper pint of cask ale in the pub during lockdowns. We cannot take cask beer for granted anymore. With the sector reopen once more, it is vital we promote our pubs and the range they have on cask which they so expertly keep and serve. Doing

Ukraine: Barley exports total 3.78 mln tonnes so far in 2021/22
|
Ukraine has exported 14.36 million tonnes of grain so far in the 2021/22 July-June season versus 12.15 million at the same point a year earlier, agriculture ministry data showed on October 1.
That included 8.94 million tonnes of wheat, 3.78 million tonnes of barley and 1.43 million tonnes of corn, the data showed.
Ukraine may thresh a record 80.6 million tonnes of grain in 2021, up from 65 million tonnes in 2020.
Exports could jump to 60.7 million tonnes in 2021/22 from 44.7 million tonnes in 2020/21.
The government has said grain exports could include 24.4 million tonnes of wheat, 30.9 million tonnes of corn and 5.2 million tonnes of barley.
Ukraine's exports last season included 23.1 million tonnes of corn, 16.6 million tonnes of wheat and 4.2 million tonnes of barley.

China & Portugal: Fresh business opportunities created by rapid rise of premium beer in China – CEO of Portugal’s Super Bock Group
|
The rapid rise of premium beer and craft breweries has created fresh business opportunities in China, the largest beer market in the world, as local drinkers pay more attention to superior quality and exclusivity, CEO of Portuguese brewing company Super Bock Group has said.
Rui Lopes Ferreira told Xinhua in a recent interview that he has observed an expansion in China's premium beer market, thanks to the shift in retail consumption online due to COVID-19, a change in consumers' taste preference, and rising purchasing power in the country of 1.4 billion people.
"The Chinese beer market has shown amazing figures. But it's important to note that in total it has been declining," Ferreira noted. "There is a trend of premiumization, which obviously we want to explore and take profit."
"Our brand is positioned as a premium imported brand, and we can leverage the rise of this segment," said the CEO.
According to the China Beer Market Study 2021 by MarketResearch.com, China is the world's largest beer market by sales, with an annual consumption of almost 45.7 billion litres.
However, the market for mainstream beer is becoming saturated, said the report. While beer remains the top alcoholic beverage consumed in the country, consumption has been falling

Australia: Australian Grain Technologies releases two new barley varieties
|
They may be named after creatures of ancient mythology, but the two new barley varieties from Australian Grain Technologies (AGT) are anything but primitive, the Farm Weekly reported on October 1.
Cyclops and Minotaur are the result of AGT's barley breeding program which was launched in 2014 and offer growers greater yields and improved reliability.
Throughout its field evaluation, Cyclops revealed itself to be the highest yielding barley variety in Western Australia, while Minotaur demonstrated an average six per cent yield advantage over popular RGT Planet.
AGT barley breeder Paul Telfer said they viewed Cyclops as an all-rounder, while Minotaur had proven an ideal substitute for RGT Planet in medium to high rainfall zones.
"Cyclops performed exceptionally well in the medium rainfall, medium yield potential environments, where it has set a new yield benchmark for the majority of Australia and it also has a physical grain quality and disease resistance package that compares well with most other varieties on the market," Mr Telfer said.
"Minotaur on the other hand, because it has been bred for Australian conditions, is better able to deal with our seasonal variability than European varieties, so it combines the top-end yield potential of European barley, like RGT Planet, with lower risk

Ukraine: Ukraine reports progress in winter grains sowing
|
Ukrainian farms had sown 3.1 million hectares of winter wheat for the 2022 harvest as of Oct 4 or 46% of the expected area, the agriculture ministry said on October 5.
Winter wheat accounts for 95% of Ukraine's total wheat sowing area.
The ministry also said that winter barley had been sown on 252,000 hectares or 12% of the planned area and rye sowing had been 66% completed with 106,000 hectares covered.
Last year, the autumn drought reduced the area planted with winter grains, and farmers sowed 6.1 million hectares of winter wheat, 954,700 hectares of winter barley and 125,200 hectares of rye for the 2021 harvest.
One of the major grain growers and exporters globally, Ukraine plans to harvest a record 80.6 million tonnes of grain in 2021.
