Heineken CEO Says Bar Sales Won’t Recover Until There’s A COVID-19 Vaccine (Dolf van den Brink became Heineken’s new CEO in June 2020.) “We don’t have the answers, but we will not be complicit through silence, and participating in the Black Is Beautiful collaboration brew is one small way we can lend our voices to help foster change.” – Dogfish Head co-founder Sam Calagione “We look forward to bringing beer fans and breweries together once again in an environment that is fun, engaging, and safe for all those who attend.” “Though it truly disappoints us to have to push our much anticipated Charlotte festival out nearly a year, the health and safety of our attendees and brewer partners comes above all else,” said Talia Spera, Untappd Vice President of Festivals and Live Events. Attendees who purchased tickets to a session on the original scheduled date will automatically have their tickets honored for the same session in 2021 and those who can no longer attend have the option to receive a refund. The festival, which was originally set to take place on May 16, 2020, will be held in the same venue, Bank of America Stadium. Popular social media app Untappd has announced that due to the COVID-19 pandemic its second Untappd Beer Festival won’t be returning to Charlotte, NC this year and has been bumped to Saturday, April 24, 2021.And even that rescheduled date is subject to change pending any updates to the phased reopening plan for North Carolina and broader COVID safety measures from the CDC.
