Research Update

 

Good afternoon,

Linked below is the October 2017 State-by-State Shipments to Wholesalers Report. Please note changes to historical volumes as some state totals may have changed with newly released state-level data.

Below are some key points from the report:

  • Beer shipments volume increased by 6.4% during October 2017 on one additional selling day compared to October 2016.
  • After adjusting for the extra selling day, October shipments were up 1.6%.
  • Wholesalers rebuilt inventories during October, which is normal when heading into the holiday season. However, this year’s pre-holiday load in was especially strong due primarily to the size and timing of this year’s general price increase.

If you have any questions, please contact me at either 202-737-2337 or muhrich@beerinstitute.org.

Cheers,

Michael Uhrich
Chief Economist
