Increasing Demand for Alcoholic Beverages to Accelerate Market Growth

Europe has a rising demand for alcoholic beverages such as beer. According to Brewers of Europe, a not-for-profit organization, the region is home to an estimated 80 beer styles and 50,000 beer brands. Innovative products, such as flavored and crafted beer, and the growing demand for imported beer have increased the demand for the product in the region.

• For instance, in November 2022, Asahi Europe & International launched a range of alcohol-free beer in U.K. and Ireland. The new product Asahi Super Dry 0.0% will be available from January 2023.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Stringent Regulations in the Region to Limit the Market Growth 

Beer adjuncts include ingredients such as unmalted grains, sugars, and others used in manufacturing different beers with varying alcohol content. They are widely used in all countries, although the German beer purity law, the Reinheitsgebot, prohibits their use in beers for domestic consumption. All the traditional German beers are thus brewed within the law. Therefore, the ban on adjuncts in such countries in the European region may hamper the market growth.
