(“Heineken”) notified the European Commission (the “Commission”) of the proposed acquisition by Heineken of certain assets (including brands) relating to the businesses operated by Scottish & Newcastle plc (“S&N”) in Belgium, Finland, Ireland, Portugal and the United Kingdom (Case No. COMP/M.4999, Heineken/Scottish & Newcastle ). 1.2 The Competition Authority (the “Authority”) received a copy of the notification by Heineken to the Commission on 14 February 2008. By letter dated 29 February 2008 to the Commission, the Authority, as the Irish competent authority, requested the referral of the part of the concentration concerning Ireland, pursuant to Article 9(2)(a) and (b) of the Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 of 20 January 2004 on the control of concentrations between undertakings (the “ECMR”). 1.3 On 3 April 2008, the Commission made a partial referral of Case No. COMP/M.4999, Heineken/Scottish & Newcastle , to the Authority 1. In particular, the referred transaction is the proposed acquisition by Heineken of the assets relating to the business operated by S&N in Ireland, namely, Beamish & Crawford plc (“B&C”) (the “Proposed Transaction”). The remaining part of the transaction notified to the Commission was cleared on the same date. 1.4 In accordance with section 18 (13) of the Competition Act, 2002 (the “Act”), the referral of the Proposed Transaction to the Authority by the Commission constitutes a notification under Section 18 (1) of the Act. Section 18(14) provides that the date on which the Authority receives the referral from the Commission shall; be deemed to be the date of the notification. The Authority received the referral on 3 April 2008. On 29 April 2008, Heineken made a submission to the Authority setting out the pertinent Irish aspects of the case using a format similar to an Irish merger notification. Background 1.5 The Proposed Transaction is part of a wider transaction which involved the following steps: (i) the acquisition (through a public offer) of all the shares of S&N by Sunrise Acquisitions Limited (“Bidco”), a company jointly controlled by Heineken and Carlsberg A/S (“Carlsberg”) and created for the purposes of this transaction; and, 1 The Commission’s referral decision may be accessed at: www.ec.europa.eu/comm/competition/mergers/cases/decisions/m4999_20080403_20230_en.p df . This will be referred to as “the Referred Decision.” M/08/011 – Heineken/Scottish & Newcastle 1 (ii) the subsequent division of the S&N’s businesses between Heineken and Carlsberg according to the terms of an agreement between Heineken and Carlsberg. 1.6 Pursuant to Commission Consolidated Jurisdictional Notice under Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 on the control of concentrations between undertakings (the “Jurisdictional Notice”), each of Heineken and Carlsberg’s proposed acquisitions of the S&N businesses constituted a separate concentration 2. Therefore, Heineken and Carlsberg’s proposed acquisitions were notified separately to the Commission. 1.7 The proposed acquisition by Carlsberg of certain assets relating to the businesses operated by S&N in Estonia, France, Greece, Latvia and Lithuania, Belarus, China, Kazakhstan, Russia, Ukraine, Uzbekistan and Vietnam was notified by Carlsberg to the Commission on 1 February 2008 and was cleared on 7 March 2008 (Case No. COMP/M.4952, Carlsberg/Scottish & Newcastle ). 1.8 The proposed acquisition by Heineken of the remaining assets relating to the businesses operated by S&N in Belgium, Finland, Ireland, Portugal and the United Kingdom was notified separately by Heineken to the Commission on 12 February 2008 (Case No. COMP/M.4999, Heineken/Scottish & Newcastle ). On 3 April 2008, the Commission referred the Proposed Transaction to the Authority and cleared the remaining part of the transaction (see paragraphs 1.1 to 1.3 above). 1.9 The Commission’s referral of the Proposed Transaction to the Authority had some implications with regard to the first step of the wider transaction (i.e. the acquisition by Bidco of S&N). Under the Act, the acquisition by Bidco (company jointly controlled by Carlsberg and Heineken) of S&N (and therefore B&C) before a determination was made by the Authority with regard to the Proposed Transaction would have resulted in an unlawful implementation of the Proposed Transaction. To avoid this undesirable scenario, Heineken, S&N, B&C and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (the “Bank”) entered into an agreement prior to the acquisition by Bidco of S&N (the “Subscription and Option Agreement”). 1.10 Under the Subscription and Option Agreement, S&N ceased to have control over B&C. One new voting share in the capital of B&C was issued and allotted to the Bank and the shares formerly held by S&N in B&C were reclassified as non-voting shares. Consequently, at the time of completion of the acquisition by Bidco of S&N, control of B&C did not pass to Heineken. The Bank undertook to hold the voting share pending the decision of the Authority. 2 According to paragraphs 30-32 of the Jurisdictional Notice, where the subsequent break-up of assets is agreed between the parties in a legally binding way (i.e., division of S&N assets between Heineken and Carlsberg) and is certain to take place within a short time period after the first step (i.e., acquisition by Bidco of S&N), “only the acquisitions of the different parts of the undertaking in the second step will constitute concentrations, whereby each of these acquisitions by different purchasers will constitute a separate concentration” (paragraph 32). M/08/011 – Heineken/Scottish & Newcastle 2 The Transaction 1.11 The Proposed Transaction consists of the acquisition of sole control by Heineken of B&C. The assets to be acquired include the brewery and the brands of B&C. The Undertakings Involved The Acquirer: Heineken 1.12 Heineken is the holding company of the Heineken group. Heineken is listed on the Euronext Amsterdam Stock Exchange. The shares in Heineken are

  • The Role of Geology in the Fall and Rise of Local Brewing Alex Maltman Abstract
    The role of geology in the fall and rise of local brewing Alex Maltman Abstract. Beer has an ancient heritage and brewing was almost ubiquitous by the Middle Ages in the British Isles. It later became progressively more regional. The East Midlands had good waters, and barley from both the sandy soils on the Sherwood Sandstone and the fertile, clayey soils on the Lower Jurassic of the Vale of Belvoir. Hops were grown in the heavy soils on Mercia Mudstone of the ‘North Clays’ district, and Nottingham’s sandstone caves provided ideal storage conditions for the beer. Subsequently the water, especially at Burton upon Trent, proved ideal for the newly fashionable pale ale or bitter. Gypsiferous Triassic aquifers gave the water a perfect ionic balance for this style of beer. Moreover, the calcium sulphate allowed high hopping rates, and hence the development of the Export and India Pale Ale styles, now of international fame. By the 20th century, brewing science had showed how Burton waters could be emulated elsewhere, and the brewing industry became highly commercialised and centralised. The craft beer movement is now heralding a return to local values, including the importance of local ingredients, some of which show a geological influence. Beer is often seen as the simple quaffing drink of the beer for sale (Unger, 2005). Beer was drunk with every masses, a contrast with the sophistication of wine. In meal: the consumption was something like two pints fact, in many ways beer is the more complex drink of every day, per person. Incidentally, the brewing was the two.

    Empire in a Bottle: Commodities, Culture, and the Consumption of Pilsner Beer in the British Empire, c.1870-1914 A dissertation presented by Malcolm F. Purinton to The Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the field of History Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts August 2016 1 Empire in a Bottle: Commodities, Culture, and the Consumption of Pilsner Beer in the British Empire, c.1870-1914 by Malcolm F. Purinton Abstract of Dissertation Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University August, 2016 2 Abstract The Pilsner-style beer is the most popular and widespread beer style in the world with local variants and global brands all competing in marketplaces from Asia to Africa to the Americas. Yet no one has ever examined why this beer and not another was able to capture the global market for malt beverages. This is important from the point of view of the study of beer as a commodity, but its greater importance is in the way the spread of the Pilsner style serves as a visible, traceable marker for the changes wrought by globalization in an age of empire. Its spread was dependent not only on technological innovations and faster transportation, but also on the increased connectedness of the world, and on the political structures like empires that dominated the world at the time. Drawing upon a wide range of archival sources from Great Britain, Germany, Ireland, and South Africa, this study traces the spread in consumption and production of the Pilsner in the British Empire between 1870 and 1914.
