Comments & BEERecovery Plan
ByHuge thanks go out to mdkellyIU for alerting me to a bug on this site. In an attempt to block SPAM from the comments, I began blocking real comments too.
For all of you who may have tried to comment over the past few days, the comments feature should be working now!
And just in time, because here’s something worth talking about.
Beer’s Stay-At-Home Image May Give It Boost In Downturn:
Beer, like other alcohol categories, faces its own set of challenges as consumers become more thrifty. Sales of alcohol in bars and restaurants have fallen, as consumers spend less on eating out. Consumers are showing signs of changing many consumption patterns.
“I think you are seeing what we would call trading-down activity in alcoholic beverages,” said Lauren Torres, an analyst at HSBC Global Research, noting there has been an improvement in the beer market this year. “People are changing their habits. For instance, they’re not consuming as much in bars and restaurants, but they are still consuming at home.”
Because of the convenience afforded to me by my stockpile and the reduced amount of temptation (comparatively speaking), I’ve preferred to drink my single “Beer A Day” at home in the evening instead of out at a bar or restaurant.
Unfortunately, drinking singles hasn’t been the cheapest way to consume beer. Especially since most of my beer arsenal is composed of pricey craft brews.
But now I see that I’m actually contributing to the Beer Economy just at the right moment.
When I save the industry with my BEERecovery plan, I hope the world is kind enough to raise a shrine in my honor. Frankly, I’d be happy just to have someone will raise up a Shiner Bock in my honor…
