Last week, the Beer Institute published an unofficial estimate of domestic tax paid shipments by beer brewers for June 2021: The June 2021 estimate is 16,100,000 barrels, a decrease of 0.7 percent compared to June 2020 removals of 16,216,000. The July 2021 domestic tax paid estimate is scheduled to be released on August 20, 2021.
