Europe/Russia
United Kingdom | A new UK brewery tracker was launched on 13 January 2023 by SIBA, the Society of Independent Brewers, setting out the definitive number of actively trading breweries across ten regions.
Europe/Russia
United Kingdom | If you look at the list of the ten best-selling beers in the UK in 2022, nine of them are international brands but all are brewed in the UK: Carling (originated in Canada), Foster’s (Australia), Moretti (Italy), Peroni (Italy), Coors (USA), Stella Artois (Belgium), Carlsberg (Denmark), San Miguel (Spain), and Amstel (Netherlands).
Europe/Russia
France | When Heineken announced the closure of its Alsatian brewery in November 2022, and the loss of more than 200 jobs, many observers pretended the decision came out of the blue.
Europe/Russia
Europe | Publicans have been warned: Heineken said in December 2022 that it would push through price increases more consistently. Ireland’s publicans were the first to get a taste of things to come.
Europe/Russia
Netherlands | Heineken’s full exit from Russia is dragging on. Like Carlsberg, the Dutch brewer had wanted to be out of the country by the end of 2022. But it seems Heineken was too optimistic when it set itself this date.
Europe/Russia
Ireland | It may be a cliché that the Irish have a way with words. But it is hard to deny that some do have the gift of the gab. Take the craft brewer Rye River.
Europe/Russia
The Netherlands | Global beer consumption is holding up despite economic challenges, with employment strong and drinkers still treating higher-priced premium beer as an affordable luxury, Dolf van den Brink, CEO of Heineken, told analysts at its Capital Markets Event on 2 December.
Europe/Russia
United Kingdom | Wetherspoon hopes to sell off 39 of its 842 venues across the UK amid the cost-of-living crisis. The sales are reportedly due to spiralling inflation, pushing up bills for staff and supplies. Luckily, the pubs will remain open and trading under the Wetherspoon brand until they have found a buyer.
Europe/Russia
Belgium | What a career change. When Carlos Brito stepped down as CEO of AB-InBev in May 2021, many suspected he would retreat from the limelight and just tend to his private investments. How wrong they were. Mr Brito will become CEO of Carglass parent Belron, the Belgian group D’Ieteren, which owns just over half of Belron, announced on 17 November.
Europe/Russia
Denmark | When Carlsberg put its Russian business up for sale in March this year, following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, it said it would leave the country by the end of 2022.
