New Zealand: Alcohol companies investing heavily in low or no-alcohol beverages
|
Alcohol companies are heavily investing in low or no-alcohol beverages amid soaring demand, reflecting a Kiwi drinking culture shift that's been gaining momentum over the past 15 years, Newshub reported on July 1.
It looks like wine, tastes like wine, and is made with grapes (like wine), but it doesn't come with the effects too much wine can have.
"It's all about finding a process that starts with a good regular wine and removing the alcohol as delicately as you can - wine is quite fragile," Duncan Shouler, Giesen Group's director of winemaking, told Newshub.
Giesen has upgraded to a bigger and better spinning cone to achieve this.
"It removes the aroma from the wine, so we capture the aroma and we put it to one side and then we put the wine back through the machine again and it removes all the alcohol... then we take the aroma and put it back into the wine."
The spinning cone operates 24/7 to keep up with increasing demand for alcohol-free beverages.
"We've grown from producing none four-and-a-half years ago, to producing just under two million litres per year," Shouler said.
That's 15 percent of total production.
Globally, low and no-alcohol beer

France: Carlsberg buys minority stake in French brewery Brasserie du Pays Flamand
|
Carlsberg, via its French subsidiary Brasseries Kronenbourg, has purchased a minority stake in Brasserie du Pays Flamand, a local brewery based in France, FoodBev Media reported on July 3.
The move is aimed at bolstering the presence of its Anosteké brand across the country.
The strategic partnership focuses on exclusive distribution agreements for supermarkets and on-trade establishments nationwide. It also includes plans to triple production capacity at Brasserie du Pays Flamand's Merville site to 200,000 hectoliters over the next five years, supported by a €25 million investment. In addition, the acquisition is expected to generate several dozen jobs.
Through this partnership, Brasserie du Pays Flamand and Carlsberg aim to accelerate the rollout of the Anosteké brand across France and, to a lesser extent, the Bracine brand.
Olivier Duthoit, co-founder of Brasserie du Pays Flamand, said: "Since the brewery was founded, we've never stopped innovating to produce beers of excellence, while at the same time investing to cope with the sustained growth we've experienced year on year. Today, we need to go one step further and invest massively in our production facilities to meet the demands of our customers throughout France. We also want to maintain our quality standards and continue to develop tasty

Australia: Australia's breweries hang on, as craft beer industry issues come to a head
|
At the recent Great Australian Beer Spectacular (GABS) in Melbourne, there were a series of accidental but unfortunate metaphors on show, ABC reported on June 29.
In one booth, a high metal bar had been erected to see who could cling onto it the longest (or 'dead hang').
Nearby, precariously balanced beer glasses were set up for a game called 'Knock 'em Over.'
A few metres down, a brewery who had recently been knocked into voluntary administration and was now hanging on out the other side, tried to put on a brave face.
"It's been a hell of a moment," said Brendon Guild from Bad Shepherd Brewing.
The brewery's story was hardly an isolated one, even within the festival itself.
"When I got here at nine this morning to get things set up, I walked around to have a look at who was here," said Mr Guild.
"There's a lot of breweries that I'm used to seeing who aren't here."
The past year has seen the problems bubbling beneath the surface in the craft beer industry spill over into public view.
News of voluntary administrations or independent brewery closures have become alarmingly regular (only this week, Melbourne's Alchemy Brewing announced it would be closing for good).

UK: Budweiser Brewing Group to distribute San Miguel beer in the UK
|
AB InBev subsidiary Budweiser Brewing Group has signed a new deal with Mahou San Miguel (MSM) to distribute San Miguel in the UK, The Drinks Business reported on July 2.
The deal follows news that Carlsberg Marston’s Brewing Company (CMBC) is bringing its licence partnership with MSM to a close next year and will bring the Spanish brewer’s two flagship beer brands under one umbrella, with Budweiser Brewing Group already distributing Mahou in the UK.
Speaking about the end of the partnership, CMBC confirmed that its long-term exclusive licensed production and distribution agreement with San Miguel will end officially on 31 December 2024. Until that date, CMBC will remain as the exclusive licence partner for MSM and will continue to exclusively brew, distribute and market the San Miguel brand as normal until that time.
CMBC will work closely with MSM and its new licence partner Budweiser Brewing Group over the coming months to ensure a smooth transition. San Miguel will join Budweiser Brewing Group’s portfolio from 1 January 2025 when the company will begin to distribute and promote San Miguel’s range of world beers in the UK, including San Miguel Especial, San Miguel 0.0 and San Miguel Gluten Free.

USA: New Belgium Brewing to take over production of Kirin Ichiban and Kirin Light in the US
|
We’re now all too familiar with hearing that imported beers are shifting to stateside production. And while Anheuser-Busch has been brewing all domestically-sold Kirin beers since 1996, that responsibility is about to change hands, VinePair reported on July 1.
New Belgium Brewing has announced that it will take over the domestic production of Kirin Ichiban and Kirin Light at the end of this year, lining up with the end of Kirin’s contract brewing deal with AB InBev. According to a press release, the decision comes from a logistical maneuver to relocate Kirin’s U.S. production to its subsidiary’s facilities as Kirin’s Australian subsidiary, Lion, acquired New Belgium Brewing in 2019.
“We appreciate Anheuser-Busch’s many years of strong business partnership supporting Kirin Ichiban and Kirin Light in the U.S.,” said general manager of Kirin’s overseas business department Masakazu Ashida in the release. “We are grateful for all parties’ collaboration and commitment to ensuring continued success of our brands during this time of transition.”
New Belgium is expected to take the reins of all production, marketing, and sales of Kirin Ichiban and Kirin Light starting in January 2025. The brewery currently owns facilities in Fort Collins, Colo. and Asheville, N.C.
“I want to thank Kirin for entrusting

Nigeria: Government urged to prioritize sorghum cultivation to reduce reliance on imported barley
|
A Professor of Brewing Science and Technology at the University of Uyo, Augustine Chima Ogbonna, has urged the federal government to prioritise the cultivation of sorghum seeds to reduce the country’s reliance on imported barley for beer production, Blueprint reported on July 1.
Prof. Ogbonna, a specialist in malting technology and brewing enzymology, disclosed this during the university’s 102nd inaugural lecture, titled: ‘From Barley to Sorghum: A Paradigm Shift for the Nigerian Brewing Industry”, held at the UNIUYO permanent campus, Uyo on July 1.
He emphasised the need for consistent policies that promote the use of local raw materials in beer brewing.
The don, who was the inaugural lecturer, suggested that the government should develop a sorghum breed that can replace imported barley and enact a supportive national agricultural policy to ensure widespread utilisation of high-yield sorghum hybrid seeds by local farmers.
He said, “The Nigerian Government must stop policy reversals but concentrate efforts at developing a sorghum breed that would be capable of replacing imported barley as the main ingredient for beer production in the country.
“The Nigerian Government must be consistent with policies that will promote and encourage the cultivation of local raw materials for beer brewing to enable breweries operating in

Russia: Export duty on Russian barley remains zero
|
The export duty on Russian wheat has dropped 27% to 1,818.2 rubles per tonne as of July 3 from 2,492.8 rubles per tonne during the previous duty period, the Agriculture Ministry said.
The reduction results from the government hiking the baseline price to calculate the duty by 1,000 rubles to 18,000 rubles per tonne as of June 28.
The respective duties on barley and corn have remained zero.
Duty rates are based on indicative prices of $236.30 per tonne for wheat against $235.80 per tonne the previous duty period, $173.70 per tonne for barley versus $165 per tonne, and $180.60 per tonne for corn against $177.80 per tonne.
The duties are valid until July 9, inclusive.
The Russian government on June 2, 2021, implemented a grain damper mechanism that stipulates floating duties on exports of wheat, corn, and barley, as well as returning the funds received from the duties in order to subsidize agricultural producers. The duties are calculated weekly on the basis of price indicators based on the value of export contracts registered on the Moscow Exchange .
The government on June 30, 2022, adopted a resolution to convert the duties from dollars into rubles as of July 2022. The duty totals 70% of the
