A dispute is surfacing in Germany.....between the supermarket chain Edeka and the beer brewing chain ABInBev, and a number of smaller breweries.
To lay out the brews that you might note: Löwenbräu, Hasseröder, Franziskaner, and Beck's.
The breweries all wanted a drastic upswing on prices going into 2026. Edeka said 'NEIN' (no).
It would appear that for several months....this 'deal' talk has gone on, and Edeka has tried to lessen the increase on beer prices....with the brew folks saying there's no choice.
So at a threat level....there are around 80 brews being talked about....and yeah, that might be a day where the warehouse stock might finally empty out.
Other grocery chains in the same 'war'? I would imagine almost all of them have a ticking clock going on.....with beer prices escalating by 10-to-20 percent in 2026.
To be honest...other than the bio-stores....almost all grocery stores sell some brands of beer. The ultra-discount folks have just the ultra-cheap beer (a can for about 35 Euro cents for example). Most German grocery operations will have 50 to 100 types to offer.

So tragic that a Schneider bier goes from 1.10 Euro to 1.32. - in Amiland we are expected to pay $5.50 for this same 0.5L
Prepan, we paid $2.50 for Maisel Weisse, now $4 if you can find it.
US has cheap gas, expensive bier, opposite of Deutschland
