Miller will test the collection in four markets— Minneapolis, Charlotte, San Diego and Baltimore, beginning in February 2008. The Brewers Collection will feature three beers—Blonde Ale, an Amber and a Wheat—each with fewer calories and carbs than a typical craft beer for that style. Miller Chief Marketing Officer Randy Ransom said “Miller is seeking to again establish a whole new category for the beer industry—craft-style-light. “The brewer who can provide a more refreshing and drinkable craft style can stake out a whole new niche in the market.

  • Hanoi a Beer Drinker'
    Hanoi a beer drinker's haven (11/10/2012) Hanoi has been named one of the cheapest and best places to drink fresh beer in Asia by travel guides and journalists, thanks to its lively drinking culture. Many tourists look forward to the chance to join local Hanoians and enjoy the city's famous Bia Hoi (fresh beer) - a light-bodied pilsner without preservatives that is brewed and delivered daily to drinking places throughout the capital. Hanoi has become a magnet for tourists who enjoy drinking beer, which is readily available at local pavement shops as well as in luxurious bars. There are thousands of corner bars with tiny plastic stools set out on the sidewalk and small low tables laden with glasses of beer. Visitors should taste Vietnamese beer and learn how local people drink. "Mot, hai, bazo!! (One, two, three go!!) and "Tram phan tram! ("100 percent" or "bottoms up") are common chants that accompany a drinking session in these local establishments. "Bia Hoi is one of things you should not miss when you come to Hanoi, says Thomas, a foreign tourist who chooses Hanois old quarter as his favourite place to imbibe a cool brew. He says he likes Hanoi beer because it is very cheap and delicious. Another thing that amazes visitors is that the beer bars are mostly on the sidewalk where drinkers sometimes have to raise their voices over the din of motorbike traffic or breathe in the clouds of diesel exhaust belched over the plastic tables by a passing bus. "Sitting on the pavement, listening to the mixed sounds, drinking beer and just looking at what's happening around me has become my habit during my time in Hanoi, Thomas elaborates.

  • Tsingtao Brewery Company Case Study Tsingtao Brewery Co., Ltd
    Tsingtao Brewery Company Case Study Tsingtao Brewery Co., Ltd., one of the oldest beer makers in China, was founded in 1903 by German and British merchants under the name Nordic Brewery Co., Ltd. Tsingtao Branch. Today, Tsingtao Brewery is China’s largest brewery and was also an Official Sponsor of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. On July 15, 1993, Tsingtao Brewery became the first-ever Chinese company to be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (stock code 0168). On August 27, 1993, it listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange (stock code: 600600), making Tsingtao Brewery the first Chinese company to be listed in both Mainland China and Hong Kong. China now has about 500 breweries, nearly one for every three counties, but 80 per cent have an annual production capacity of less than 50,000 tons and most have operational difficulties. This has spelled opportunities for the three heavyweights, Tsingtao, Yanjing and China Resources. They have all pursued a domestic expansion plan through numerous strategic mergers, purchasing insolvent companies, reorganization, and joint-venture partnerships. Still, in spite of its having the second largest market in the world, China still has a long way to go because per capita beer consumption annually is only about 15 liters, compared to 84 liters in the United States. In 2007, Tsingtao Brewery achieved a total sales volume of 5.05 million kiloliters globally, with the market share of Tsingtao Beer in China reaching 13% . In that same year, World Brand Lab valued the brand at RMB 25.827 billion, placing it first in China’s brewing industry.
