Record entries were received for the 2015 Sydney Royal Beer & Cider Show, which resulted in the greatest number of Gold medals ever awarded and the crowning of three Championships, two emphatically claimed by the same boutique producer, Sydney Brewery. Sydney Brewery took out Champion Draught Beer and Champion Cider, while Australia‟s longest-established craft brewery, Matilda Bay, produced by CUB Cascade Brewery, was awarded Champion Bottled Beer for its Redback Original. Chair of Judges and Head Brewer at The Australian Brewery, Neal Cameron, said it was a phenomenal effort by both producers; however he was particularly impressed a small brewery could not only master a draught beer but accept top honours for cider as well. “In all my years in the industry and judging, I have never seen a small producer deliver two Championship products in the draft and cider classes at one event. Sydney Brewery‟s Lovedale Lager and Sydney Cider are exceptional brews and I encourage all enthusiasts to get out and support them,” Mr Cameron said. “The quality at this year‟s Show was the highest we‟ve seen, however it‟s no surprise when entries have climbed over three-fold since inception in 2007 and we award 15 gold medals, the most we‟ve ever seen. “Australia is seeing an enormous rise in the craft beer and cider industries and we‟re witnessing quality products successfully enter our market – it‟s an exciting time for all beer and cider enthusiasts around the country and we‟re only expecting further growth,” said Mr Cameron. The Royal Agricultural Society of NSW (RAS) hosts the most prestigious and competitive events on the industry calendar with the Sydney Royal Beer & Cider Show showcasing the best in Australian draught and bottled beer, as well as cider and perry, which have boomed in popularity in recent years. The Sydney Royal Beer & Cider Show awarded 15 Gold, 55 Silver and 73 Bronze medals, in addition to three Championship trophies. Classes judged in 2015 included Golden Lager, Dark Lager, Pale and Golden Ale, Amber and Dark Ale, Stouts and Porter, Wheat Beer, Strong Beer, Reduced Alcohol Beer, Cider, Perry and Speciality Beer. Judging took place on Tuesday, 15 September, with winners announced at the sold out #GoodBrew Awards Night on Friday, 18 September, at The Stables, Sydney Showground.

  • Mittal Steel in 2005: Changing the Global Steel Game
    SM – 1529 – E PANKAJ GHEMAWAT O – 308 - 029 JORDAN MITCHELL Grolsch: Growing Globally In November 2007, SAB Miller, the world´s second largest brewer,1 announced the friendly takeover of the world’s 51st largest, Royal Grolsch N.V. of the Netherlands, for €816m in cash - 84% more than Grolsch’s value over the previous month. Nick Fell, SABMiller’s Marketing Director, explained the logic of the deal: “[Grolsch is] a fantastic brand. It’s North European, it’s a fantastic product, it’s got unimpeachable brewing credentials and authenticity and credibility. And it’s a damn good product. So for anybody interested in developing their premium beer business, this is an absolute peach of a brand to get hold of… we see huge potential for it in our global footprint, particularly in markets like Latin America and Africa where we’ve got a strong route to market but where the premium beer business is still in its infancy.”2 Grolsch had hitherto focused on developed markets, particularly the UK, US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and France, in pursuit of its goal of becoming one of the world’s top 10 global beer brands. Groslch was already the world’s 21st largest global brand, measured by international (non- domestic) volume (see Exhibit 1). International volume had grown to account for slightly over one- half of total volume and, going forward, seemed to offer much more potential. Drinkers often rated Grolsch higher than larger brands, including Heineken, the top global brand as well as the leader in Grolsch’s home market (see Exhibit 2).
