To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of adopting equal tax treatment for beer and cider.
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of adopting equal tax treatment for beer and cider.
The Government is currently undertaking a review of alcohol duties in order to simplify the system and make it fairer overall, including ensuring beer and cider both pay duty according to their alcoholic strength.
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment he has made of the impact of the new small producer relief on small brewers that also produce spirits above 8.5% ABV.
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment he has made of the impact of the new small producer relief on small brewers that also produce spirits above 8.5% ABV.
Small brewers and cidermakers produce at a range of ABVs. The strength of the products of small producers will vary according to their individual business model.
Small cidermakers producing 70 hectolitres or less in a 12-month consecutive period are exempted from the requirement to register with HMRC for duty purposes. The Government therefore holds no records on the numbers of these businesses.
Under the proposals published at Budget, brewers that also produce spirits will be required to attribute spirits production to their total production amount.
We will be publishing the Government’s response to the consultation on the alcohol duty review, including Small Producer’s Relief, later in the year.

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many small producers that produce multiple alcoholic products will be effected by the introduction of small producer relief.
The Government intends to introduce a new Small Producers Relief to replace the existing Small Brewers Relief. The new relief will include beer, cider, wine and spirits-based drinks below 8.5% alcohol by volume (ABV). It aims to encourage innovation and remove barriers growth for small producers.
This change will benefit hundreds of small producers across the UK by giving them access to reduce rates for the first time, across a wider range of products.
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what recent assessment he has made of the economic impact of covid-19 on the brewing sector.
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what recent assessment he has made of the economic impact of covid-19 on the brewing sector.
The Government is continuing to monitor the economic impact of covid-19 on the brewing sector and is taking steps to support pubs and brewers in their recovery.
As announced at Autumn Budget, the duty rates on alcohol including beer will be frozen for another year. This is expected to save beer drinkers £900 million over the next five years, and has resulted in beer duty rates being at their lowest level in real terms since the 1990s.
In addition, as part of our alcohol duty review, the Government has announced a number of reforms which will further support brewers. This includes our proposal to widen the reduced rate for lower strength beers from 2.8% alcohol by volume (ABV) to extend to beers below 3.5% ABV, and to move the higher rate for beers above 7.5% ABV to start at 8.5% ABV.
The Government has also announced it will reduce the duty on draught beer by 5% from 2023. This will cut the duty on a pint of beer served in a pub by 3p.
