Change is brewing ?? Pabst Brewing Company have entered a new agreement with AB InBev for the brewing giant to begin production of its beers, after their 20-year contract with Molson Coors Beverage Company ended in December.

Since their Milwaukee brewery closed in 1996, Pabst has relied solely on third-party production, with City Brewing Company also brewing a significant amount of Pabst beer, a contract which will last until 2040. #pabst #anheuserbusch #molsoncoors #citybrewing #beer #beverage #production #usmanufacturing #usbeverage #beveragemanufacturing #foodandbeverage

We are a couple of brewers who dealt with first-hand, the effects of over-contracting hops. Contracting is an essential function of the hop market, but what happens when it goes wrong? There is only so much hop companies and breweries can do (how many specials can one brewery make ??) So we set up Brewing Trade a platform where you can buy and sell brand new surplus hops with each other. We have amassed 500 brewers who feel exactly the same as we did, and want to find their hop freedom in only 7 months. Our journey is JUST beginning. Be a part of one of the fastest-growing trends in the brewing industry and join 500+ other breweries that are fighting rising costs and feeling total freedom.

Ballantine was founded in 1840 in Newark, New Jersey, by Peter Ballantine who emigrated from Scotland. Ballantine rented an old brewing site which had dated back to 1805. It was originally incorporated as the Patterson & Ballantine Brewing Company. Around 1850, Ballantine bought out his partner and purchased land near the Passaic River to brew his Scottish ale. His three sons joined the business and in 1857 the company was renamed, accordingly, as P. Ballantine and Sons. By 1879, it had become sixth-largest brewery in the U.S., twice as large as Anheuser-Busch. In the mid-1960s the company went into decline. It was losing market share to lighter lagers with less alcohol content. (Hmmm … sounds modern day familiar ??) Despite advertising efforts to revive the company, the owners agreed to sell the brand, the company, and all their assets … to the Falstaff Brewing Corporation. The name would be used for the next 115 years, until the company closed its brewery in 1972. And that’s part of the history of beer in America. “The best beers are the one we drink with fiends.” — Stephen Carter King Source: Beer History in America #BeerHistory in #America #NewJersey #Ballantine #ScottishAle #Falstaff #Beer #CraftBeer #NonAlcoholicBeer #Cider #Microbreweries #Taprooms #Brewpubs #ConsumerBehavior #BrandAwareness Slàinte??! ???

?Brewing Success: How Porter's Five Forces Crafted a Winning Strategy #PortersFiveForces #CraftBeer #BusinessStrategy #CompetitiveAnalysis #SmallBusinessGrowth #StrategicManagement #EntrepreneurialMindset Alex, the owner of a small craft brewery, was considering expanding his business. Before making any moves, he remembered Porter's Five Forces and decided to analyze the craft beer industry. 1. Threat of new entrants: Alex realized the low barriers to entry in craft brewing meant competition was likely to increase. 2. Bargaining power of suppliers: He noted that hop and grain suppliers had limited power due to numerous options. 3. Bargaining power of buyers: Craft beer enthusiasts were willing to pay premium prices for quality and uniqueness. 4. Threat of substitutes: Wine and spirits were gaining popularity, posing a moderate threat. 5. Competitive rivalry: The local craft beer scene was vibrant but not cutthroat. Based on this analysis, Alex decided to expand but focus on creating unique, high-quality beers that couldn't be easily replicated. He also invested in building strong relationships with local bars and restaurants to secure his distribution channels. Understanding the competitive forces in your industry can help you identify opportunities and threats, allowing you to make strategic decisions that give you a competitive edge.
