Description

Discover the latest global trends and innovations across the beer and cider markets. Our forward looking report identifies areas which are evolving, beer industry growth, cider market analysis and important advances expected across the next five years and beyond.

Where we are now

COVID-19 containment measures changed consumer habits and access to beer and cider in 2020. Beer and cider innovations showcase that the future of the category will include more moderate low- and no-alcohol products, new flavor options and broadened sustainability claims.

In the next two years

Companies can appeal to at-home drinkers with premium brands, food pairing education and the convenience of ecommerce ordering. The rising number of health-conscious adults globally will drive a need for more low- and no-alcohol innovation. Corporate ethical and environmental commitments will return as purchase differentiators.

In five years and beyond

The future will bring experiential shopping to ecommerce. Meanwhile, conscious consumers will be interested in beer and cider made with sustainable ingredients. Non-alcoholic products will be essential as the pandemic issues a wake-up call about personal and public health.
