It’s Thursday, so throwing it back to honor what was once my favorite day of the week - Bowling night. In college, we rolled every Thursday for three years. Take that for a liberal arts education! I could’ve told you from experience that bowlers over-index in beer consumption, but here are some numbers on the bowling participant to back it up: 🎳 Bowlers are beer drinkers - 54% consume beer on a monthly basis, which is 40% more than the average U.S. adult (21+). 🎳 Bowlers prefer domestic beer; US beer brands rank first among bowlers alcoholic beverage of choice. 🎳 Bowlers like to party - they are 2x more likely to go to bars or clubs than the average US adult 21+.

I never thought about pursuing a career in modelling... Thankfully (for us all) I won't be any time soon, but don't let my mesmerising performance distract from the vital role steel kegs can have in your supply chain, and in the search for increased environmental sustainability in your business.

The vast majority of hospo venues serve a distinctly average Bloody Mary, if they even serve one. Robert Godber and I are on a mission to help sites serve better Bloodys - using Bloody Bens Bloody Mary Mix, the ingredient for perfect Bloody Marys to achieve it. But it's easy to have a mission and talk about what you want to happen. How do you go about actually making it happen? Well, one crucial area, often overlooked by startups is distribution (we're totally guilty of this too). The easier you make it for your potential customers to order, the more who will be able to join your mission. [who agrees with me on the distribution point?] At the start of 2023, we made it our goal to partner up with more distributors, so we could start achieving our mission at scale. It takes time and determination to secure these deals, but you can make them happen, so, we're Bloody delighted to announce we're working with Amathus Drinks PLC 🍅🌶💥 (DM me to learn who our other distribution partners are).

In beer post covid, in every single international market - only two segments have grown. As each country reopened the same thing happens People either drink to forget or drink to remember. High alc beer and zero alc beer are the only two segments growing. Mainstream beers have switched low carb. NZ was the last to reenter NZ was the fastest to pick up on one of the trends and retailers have supported. This is NW Thorndon. This bay didn’t exist two years ago. How bloody awesome we have the good choice of good choice Cheers Ajit.

Did you know that beer boosts economic activity across Europe? 🍻 Beer is a vital driver of employment, particularly in the hospitality sector: think bars, restaurants and pubs. This sector plays a crucial role in creating jobs! When it comes to beer consumption volume, the retail market is bigger: around two-thirds of beer is sold in supermarkets, specialty stores, and other retail outlets, making its way into our homes. However, consumers are often willing to pay a premium in the hospitality sector for the service provided by bar staff, the chance to socialise, the inviting ambiance and other venue features. As a result, this leads to a higher consumption value within the hospitality sector. Want to dive deeper into how our industry fuels the European economy?

After lots of engagement on my recent post about Carling being named the most "boring" draught tap at pubs, it's great to share a story from the other side of the coin—𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻🍻. Yesterday, the news broke that many small UK breweries are moving away from the “craft beer” label, and are instead championing the term “𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗿.” This shift, led by Andy Slee and the team at SIBA, aims to help consumers distinguish true independent British beers from brands owned by multinationals. At Hospitality Data Insights (HDI), we did a project for SIBA, The Society of Independent Brewers and Associates last year, 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗳𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗕𝗲𝗲𝗿. Our analysis showed that draught Independent British Beer was available in only 60% of Managed Pubs, meaning 4 in 10 pubs were missing out on this category entirely. By contrast, 𝟯 𝗶𝗻 𝟭𝟬 𝗽𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝘂𝗯𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗿𝘀 - highlighting the 𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁. There’s clearly a desire among consumers to support local and British producers. Independent British Beer can help pubs offer something unique and create a more premium, engaging range for their customers. Great to see the SIBA team driving this important initiative!👏 #IndependentBeer #BritishBrewers #HospitalityData #UKPubs
