Baden: A third more beer is drunk at home: The Müllerbräu boss says how Corona affects beer consumption

Felix Meier, head of the Baden brewery, believes that 2021 will be a good year for beer despite Corona. “One thing is clear: there cannot be a third lockdown. That would be fatal. “

Felix Meier is an optimist. For the boss of the Baden brewery Müllerbräu, the glass is now half full and not half empty even in the corona crisis. “Of course we also had to register short-time work. We normally supply 550 restaurants, most of which are currently closed. ” All Müllerbräu trucks and delivery vans are at a standstill, the drivers are at home. “But I am very happy and grateful that we have not been dependent on outside loans so far,” says Meier. The conservative financial policy of recent years is now having a positive effect. “I’ve always said in the past: liquidity is crucial. That is now proving to be true. “
