UK: Price of a pint of beer still used as a barometer for affordability
|
The price of a pint of beer was recently used as an analogy for explaining the rise in energy bills, showing how the British public still use beer as a measure for affordability, The Drinks Business reported on August 23.
Octopus Energy chief executive Greg Jackson told Radio 4’s Today programme: “I think the spate of failures within the 29 companies that went bust last year, that was driven by gas prices roughly doubling. They’re currently nine to 11 times higher than usual. Look, to put that in perspective, if this was beer, we’re talking about the wholesale price being £25 a pint.”
Speaking to the Drinks Business, food and drink author, broadcaster and ‘Beer Writer of the Year’ Pete Brown said: “Beer cuts across class and habit. Even people who don’t drink beer recognise it as an affordable everyday treat that’s open and accessible to everyone – or should be. The fact that it’s more associated with working class people than other classes just underlines this. It’s also why some people get seriously upset at the idea of expensive craft beer. But in fact beer has been going up more than lots of staples – particularly when you look at on-trade

Japan: Japan launches a drive to get young people to drink more alcohol
|
Japan has launched a drive to get young people to drink more alcohol, The Telegraph reported on August 18.
The move comes after many stopped drinking during the coronavirus pandemic, which has led to less revenue for the National Tax Agency.
Now, the agency has invited anyone aged 20 to 39 to submit ideas for strategies to increase alcohol consumption, including promoting drinking at home.
Entrants to the "Sake Viva!" contest have until Sept 9 to come up with ideas, with the winning plan being announced in November and adopted by the NTA.
Consumption of alcohol in Japan has fallen by 25 per cent in the last quarter-century, for reasons including an ageing population.
The trend was exacerbated by the pandemic as young people stopped going out to restaurants and socialising as much.
In 2020, taxes from alcohol sales saw their biggest fall in three decades. In that year consumption of beer, which was the worst affected drink, was down by over 20 per cent.
Earlier this month, an NTA official told the Japan Times that the move to working from home had also impacted drinking and taxes.
The official said: "Many people may have come to question whether they need to continue the habit of drinking with

Jamaica: New 24 Karat beer quickly gaining market share
|
New entrant in the alcoholic beverage market, 24 Karat beer is moving to significantly increase its market share as it sets a precedent for growth in Jamaica over the next few years, the Jamaica Observer reported on August 24.
Manufacturer and entrepreneur Peter Bovell and his business partner Richard Lee are the co-founders and owners of the local start-up company, Two Jamaican Dem, which produces the beer.
Bovell said their aim is to penetrate the local market with an "all natural, no preservatives added, smooth-tasting beer" as the company positions itself to secure ground in a market controlled by big-name players Red Stripe, Heineken, and Guinness.
"If within the next two-three years we can carve out 10 per cent of the market, I think we would be doing very well. To get our products out there we are going to be engaging the wholesales and then restaurants, supermarkets, hotels, and other distributors. We have already started to work with a number of wholesales and the response so far has been satisfying," Bovell told the Jamaica Observer.
"We see an opportunity and we are taking a long-term approach to penetrate a very mature market [now controlled by the dominant players]. In order to do so,

USA, CA: Danish brewer Mikkeller to close its only US brewing facility in San Diego
|
Copenhagen-based global beer company Mikkeller has announced it will close its only U.S. brewing facility in San Diego, citing “two years of COVID and the difficult current rising cost environment”, the Good Beer Hunting reported on August 22.
The closure does not include Mikkeller’s Little Italy taproom or its taproom in San Francisco. Mikkeller says it has 50 employees in the U.S., about half of whom will be laid off. Mikkeller San Diego has been open since 2016, and according to the Brewers Association (BA), produced 10,418 barrels of beer in 2021, down from a high of 11,750 in 2019.
Mikkeller has been candid about its recent business struggles. While announcing the departure of its CEO earlier this month, the company promised a reorientation away from expansion to focus on greater profitability for its 52 breweries and restaurants, located in 18 countries. In a statement posted on the company’s website, founder and creative director Mikkel Borg Bjergsø called this “a very challenging time for production companies — and especially in light of the current market situation — it is necessary for us to look at the whole business and ensure that it is sustainable.”
A recent job posting indicates Mikkeller San Diego

South Korea: Unionized truck drivers partially dismiss strike at Hite Jinro’s headquarters
|
Unionized truck drivers working for Hite Jinro Co. said on August 23 they will partially dismiss their sit-in strike at the headquarters of the country's leading brewer and distiller, the Yonhap News reported.
The unionists have been staging the walkout on the rooftop and lobby of the company's head office in Seoul for eight days over wage hikes and other disputes.
The strikers will end their occupation of the first-floor lobby in order to spur conversation between the labor and the management at 10 a.m. Wednesday, while keeping the protest on the rooftop as status-quo, the union said in an e-mail briefing.
The protesters work for Suyang Logistics Co., Hite Jinro's wholly-owned subsidiary.
"We have repeatedly made our point clear -- Once the management keeps their word about withdrawing the damages suit and rehiring the dismissed truckers, we are open for discussions about other agendas," it added.
The strikers requested the chief executive of Hite Jinro make direct representation of the management part of the negotiation, whereas Hite Jinro said the chief of Suyang Logistics will play such a role. Hite Jinro's logistics team head will audit the negotiation process as an observer, according to the firm.
The labor dispute dates back to March when 132

UK: Harvest 2022 continues at rapid pace and nearing completion
|
Harvest 2022 has continued at a rapid pace and is nearing completion, with 89% of the country's harvest now complete, AHDB analysis shows.
The five-year average for harvest progress by this point in the season is 52%, the levy organisation explained in its fourth harvest report.
The report is the latest update of the 2022-2023 season, and covers the beginning of harvest up to 16 August 2022.
Winter wheat GB harvest is estimated to be 92% complete, with the majority of crop left to be cut in the North East and Scotland.
Winter oilseed rape (WOSR) harvest is now complete, with the winter barley harvest finished in week ending 9 August (week 5).
Spring barley GB harvest is now 73% complete, and as at 16 August, it was estimated that 79% of the GB oat area had been harvested, AHDB says.
It comes as drought was declared in parts of Eastern and South England following weeks of hot and dry weather.
The UK average rainfall for the first week of August was only 7% of the long-term average, 1.0 mm compared to 13.4 mm.
The South East was the driest region (0.1 mm), whilst Scotland was the wettest (3.8 mm).
The week ending 16 August saw another heat wave,
