The cost of beer in the U.S. is set to rise due to new tariffs on imported beer and aluminum cans. These tariffs, part of a broader trade strategy, aim to address the influx of cheap steel and aluminum from foreign nations. As a result, the price of a six-pack of beer could increase by $1 to $2. Companies like Constellation, responsible for a significant portion of imported beer, may be heavily impacted. The tariffs, which affect countries globally, range from 10% to 49%, depending on the nation and its trade relationship with the U.S.
