IB Deals On Tap: More Beer-Themed Deal Toys!

June 27, 2016 by David Parry

Nothing to celebrate?

There has to be something out there for us.

After all, Cleveland just won a championship…finally.

Euro 2016 has 8 countries still alive.

Ramsey Bolton, on the other hand, is pretty much dead. And no one (so far at least) is clamoring to revive him.

So anyway, now that you have a good excuse, you may next want to check out the winners from last month’s World Beer Cup. This year’s competition drew 6,596 beers, representing 55 countries and 1,907 breweries.

But before you actually head out anywhere, also be sure check out the gallery below, a sequel to February’s extremely popular round-up of beer industry deal toys.

At the time of the deal, Cruzcampo  produced one of four glasses of beer in the Spanish market. Heineken already had a 72% stake in El Aguila, which itself accounted for almost 15% of the Spanish market.

British pubs were closing at the alarming rate of 29 per week during the first half of 2015. Though that rate slowed slightly over the balance of the year, the industry continues to call for a cut in the beer tax, among other measures.
