Once viewed as a hobby, craft beer has evolved into one of the fastest-growing and most popular segments in the US alcoholic beverage market. However, the industry has reached a critical juncture over the past decade, with oversaturation and the emergence of numerous substitutes stalling revenue growth. The pandemic coincided with the normalization phase of craft brewery growth, resulting in significant volatility. Craft breweries struggled to maintain consistent growth after the pandemic, unlike some external competitors. Revenue has been declining at a CAGR of 3.8% over the past five years and is expected to drop by 1.9% in 2024 alone, bringing revenue to $7.2 billion.Craft breweries are limited to producing fewer than 6.0 million barrels of beer annually. A result of, even successful craft breweries remain relatively small compared to multinational beverage producers. With this mandated smaller scope, craft brewers depend heavily on in-house sales and demand from on-premise markets such as local bars and restaurants. As more craft brewers enter the market, competition based on price has intensified. While internal price-based competition is expected, few small breweries can effectively match the prices of larger producers. This disadvantage has weakened profit since 2019.Conditions will likely improve over the next five years, but craft breweries may struggle to reach pre-pandemic highs as the craft beer trend settles into normalization. Profitability is expected to plateau as consumers look towards craft spirits and nonalcoholic beverages to satisfy their evolving tastes. This shift will force brewers to reduce prices or climb spending to retain their market share. Brewers will continue introducing ancillary activities at taprooms to encourage in-person sales and build loyalty. Also, rising disposable income levels and decreases in excise taxes on beer will likely entice new breweries to enter the market. Revenue is predicted to climb at a CAGR of 0.7% over the next five years, reaching $7.5 billion by 2029.

Despite California being, the leading craft beer producer, Vermont is the state with the most breweries per capita. In 2022, there were over 15 breweries for every 100 thousand residents in Vermont. In contrast, California only had 3.3 breweries per 100 thousand inhabitants.

What defines a craft brewery?

A craft beer brewery is defined as one which produces less than six million barrels a year, is independently owned (less than 25 percent of the brewery can be owned by an alcoholic beverage company that is not a craft brewer), has a TTB (Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau) Notice, and of course, makes beer.

High End Craft Beer Market Outlook

The global high end craft beer market size was valued at approximately USD 32 billion in 2023 and is forecasted to reach USD 68 billion by 2032, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7% over the forecast period. This growth is driven by factors such as increasing consumer preference for premium and artisanal beverages, rising disposable incomes, and the expanding variety of craft beer flavors and types.

One of the primary growth factors in the high end craft beer market is the shifting consumer preference towards quality and unique taste experiences. With the growing awareness about different beer styles and brewing techniques, consumers are increasingly willing to pay a premium for craft beers that offer distinctive flavors and brewing authenticity. This is a notable trend, especially among younger consumers who prioritize experience and quality over quantity. Additionally, the rise of brewpubs and microbreweries has made craft beer more accessible, further propelling market growth.

Another significant driver of market expansion is the increasing disposable income among middle and upper-middle-class consumers. As economic conditions improve and more individuals have higher disposable incomes, there is a greater propensity to spend on premium beverages. Craft beer, often priced higher than mass-produced alternatives, benefits directly from this trend. The premiumization trend is also encouraging established brewers to diversify their portfolios with high-end craft offerings, thus broadening the market reach.

The diversification of product offerings within the craft beer market also contributes substantially to its growth. Breweries are continually experimenting with new ingredients, brewing techniques, and fermentation processes to create innovative and unique beer varieties. This has led to a proliferation of styles—ranging from IPAs and stouts to sours and barrel-aged beers—that cater to different consumer tastes and preferences. Such diversification not only attracts a wider audience but also encourages repeat purchases and brand loyalty among existing consumers.

Regionally, North America remains the largest market for high end craft beer, driven by the United States, which has a well-established craft beer culture. Europe follows closely, with countries like Belgium, Germany, and the UK leading in both production and consumption. The Asia Pacific region is emerging as a significant growth area, driven by rising consumer awareness and increasing disposable incomes in countries like China, India, and Japan. Latin America and the Middle East & Africa are also witnessing growth, albeit at a slower pace, as the craft beer trend gradually permeates these regions.

Product Type Analysis

The product type segment in the high end craft beer market encompasses various categories such as IPA, stout, porter, lager, ale, and others. Each product type offers unique flavors and brewing characteristics, catering to diverse consumer preferences. India Pale Ales (IPAs) have become particularly popular due to their strong hop flavors and aromas, appealing to consumers who enjoy bold and bitter profiles. The rise of hazy and New England IPAs has further fueled this segment's growth, making IPAs one of the most sought-after craft beer types globally.

Stouts and porters, known for their rich, dark, and robust flavors, cater to a niche but loyal consumer base. These beers are often associated with colder climates and seasons, making them highly popular in regions with such conditions. The use of coffee, chocolate, and other adjuncts in stouts and porters has also contributed to their appeal, offering consumers a complex and indulgent drinking experience. Craft breweries continue to innovate within this segment, experimenting with barrel-aging and other techniques to create unique offerings.

Lagers, traditionally associated with mass-market beers, have also found a place in the craft beer market. Craft breweries have been producing lagers with more character and depth, appealing to consumers who prefer lighter, crisper beers but still seek quality and craftsmanship. The resurgence of interest in traditional lager styles, such as Pilsners and Helles, has helped this segment grow. Additionally, craft lagers often serve as a gateway for consumers transitioning from mainstream beers to craft offerings.

Ales, including pale ales, Belgian ales, and amber ales, remain a staple in the craft beer market. These beers are known for their balanced flavo

In 2023, the global beer production amounted to about 1.88 billion hectoliters, up from 1.3 billion hectoliters in 1998. Beer is a widely consumed beverage around the world, made out of water, malt, hops and yeast as basic ingredients. Global leading countries in beer production are China, the United States and Brazil. BeerBeer is the most popular alcoholic beverage worldwide, and the third-most popular drink overall after water and tea. Research shows that people have been brewing this famous beverage as early as several thousand years before the Common Era. Recent studies claim that the production and consumption of beer was a major factor in the development of civilized society, arguing that the important and often spiritual role beer played in traditional ceremonies and feasts contributed to the development of ritual and tradition and consequently the development of society at large. The American beer palette has undergone changes in recent years. More and more consumers are turning to craft beer over the well-established name brands. In general, a craft beer comes from a small, independently owned brewery that uses traditional brewing methods and focuses on manufacturing beer with a unique taste and quality rather than on mass production. More and more of these breweries have appeared in the beer landscape in the last few years. Domestic beer brands, like Budweiser and Miller Light, are still leading the American beer market. While facing unexpected competition for beer fans from the independent brewers of America, the top brands stand to capitalize on casual drinkers looking for a tasty and simple beer at a reasonable price.

Craft Beer Ingredients Market Outlook

The global craft beer ingredients market size was valued at approximately $11.8 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach around $21.5 billion by 2032, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. This growth trajectory is primarily driven by the increasing consumer demand for unique and high-quality craft beer, the rising trend of microbreweries, and the growing preference for artisanal beverages among millennials.

One of the primary growth factors for the craft beer ingredients market is the shift in consumer preferences towards premium and personalized beer experiences. Consumers are increasingly seeking beverages that offer distinctive flavors and are made using high-quality ingredients. This trend is particularly strong among millennials and younger generations who value authenticity and are willing to pay a premium for craft beers that provide a unique tasting experience. Consequently, craft breweries are investing in a diverse range of ingredients, including specialty malts, exotic hops, and unique yeast strains, to cater to this demand.

The proliferation of microbreweries and brewpubs across the globe has significantly bolstered the demand for craft beer ingredients. Microbreweries, characterized by small-scale production and an emphasis on quality and innovation, have become a global phenomenon. These establishments often experiment with different ingredients to create distinctive beer styles, thereby driving the demand for a variety of craft beer ingredients. The cultural shift towards supporting local businesses has also aided the growth of microbreweries, further fueling market expansion.

Technological advancements and innovations in brewing techniques have also played a crucial role in the growth of the craft beer ingredients market. Modern brewing technology allows for more precise control over the brewing process, enabling brewers to experiment with and perfect new recipes. Innovations such as automated brewing systems, advanced fermentation equipment, and improved quality control measures have made it easier for craft brewers to produce high-quality beer consistently. This technological progression has not only enhanced the quality of craft beer but has also expanded the possibilities for ingredient experimentation.

Regionally, North America and Europe are the dominant markets for craft beer ingredients, with the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom leading the charge. These regions have well-established craft beer cultures and a high concentration of microbreweries and craft breweries. Additionally, the Asia Pacific region is emerging as a significant market due to the growing popularity of craft beer among urban consumers and the increasing number of craft breweries in countries like China, Japan, and Australia. The Latin American and Middle Eastern markets also show promising growth potential, driven by changing consumer preferences and increasing disposable incomes.

Ingredient Type Analysis

The craft beer ingredients market is segmented by ingredient type into malt, hops, yeast, enzymes, and others. Malt is a key ingredient in beer production, providing the necessary sugars for fermentation and contributing to the flavor, color, and body of the beer. Specialty malts, such as caramel or roasted malts, are particularly popular in the craft beer industry as they allow brewers to create a wide range of beer styles with unique flavor profiles. The demand for high-quality malt is expected to rise as the craft beer market continues to grow and diversify.

Hops are another critical ingredient in craft beer production, known for their ability to impart bitterness, aroma, and flavor to the beer. The craft beer industry has seen a surge in demand for unique and exotic hop varieties, such as Citra, Mosaic, and Galaxy, which offer distinct aromatic and flavor characteristics. The growing trend of hop-forward beer styles, such as IPAs (India Pale Ales), has further driven the demand for diverse hop varieties. Additionally, innovations in hop cultivation and processing have enabled brewers to access a wider range of hop products, including hop extracts and pellets, enhancing their ability to create complex and flavorful beers.

Yeast plays a crucial role in the fermentation process, converting sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide. Different yeast strains contribute to the development of various beer styles, each imparting distinct flavor and aroma characteristics. The craft beer industry places a strong emphasis on the use of unique and specialty yeast strain

In the packaging segment of the market, various materials and methods are employed to preserve the quality and taste of the alcoholic beverage. Packaging materials such as glass, aluminum cans, and PET bottles ensure the safe transport and storage of beer. Water, a crucial ingredient in brewing, is carefully sourced and treated to meet quality standards. Malted barley and grains provide the base for beer production, contributing to its flavor and color. Hops add bitterness, aroma, and flavor to beer, enhancing its taste profile.

Craft breweries often use small-batch production methods, allowing for more flexibility and experimentation in packaging options. Retail stores and direct-to-consumer channels offer various beverage options to cater to different consumer preferences. Overall, packaging plays a vital role in maintaining the quality, freshness, and appeal of beer products in the market.
