Shift In The Consumer Preference To Craft Beer

The global craft beer market is expected to reach USD 502.9 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to witness substantial growth over the forecast period on account of the rising demand for low alcohol by volume (ABV) and flavored beer.
The government in countries including Australia, New Zealand, Belgium, Mexico, China, and the UK are promoting the production of craft beer and incorporation of new breweries on account of the positive contribution of the industry towards economic development and employment generation coupled with the willingness of the consumer to pay extra for better tasting brews.
Australia, Belgium, Germany, U.S. and New Zealand are the major craft beer producing countries with over 65% of the overall production in terms of value as well as volume. Belgian is the most preferred beer among the major craft beer consuming countries owing to the premium quality, clean taste and rich flavor & aroma of the brews.
Furthermore, the number of brewers in the global market is growing significantly on account of the rising demand for the product. As a result, the demand for grains such as barley, wheat, yeast, sugar, and hops is increasing substantially. However, the alternative applications of the raw materials are expected to lower the bargaining power of the brewers.
The demand for the pale ale, IPA, and amber ale is growing as these three craft products are widely preferred by the consumers owing to the balanced composition of the raw materials in the product including malt, hops, water, and yeast.

Distribution Insights

The on-trade distribution refers to the sale of the alcoholic drinks in bars, restaurants, clubs, pubs and other distribution channels in the hospitality industry. The on-trade craft beer is expensive as compared to off-trade; as a result, the market is growing substantially in developed economies on account of the high hospitality industry growth coupled with high consumers’ spending ability.
Off-trade distribution (distribution through retail stores, wholesalers, and online stores) market is expected to witness significant growth in developing and emerging economies on account of the low to medium consumer buying power. In addition, the growing penetration of the product in countries including Brazil, China, India, and Mexico with increasing consumer spending power is expected to compliment the growth over the next nine years.
