Growing Popularity of Craft Beer among the Millennials to Bolster the Growth of the Light Beer Industry

Based on production, the craft brewery segment accounts for a significant share in the market, owing to the growing popularity of craft beer among consumers between the ages of 18 and 30. The growing inclination towards craft beer can be attributed to its light flavour and rich mouthfeel and its high nutritional value, such as the presence of dietary silicon, which helps improve bone density and lower the risk of arthritis. In addition, the launch of refreshing, light beers that are clean and balanced by various brands is adding to their popularity. Furthermore, the segment growth in the forecast period is expected to be driven by the ability of the product to mimic the taste of standard beers while offering improved health benefits.

 

North America Accounts for a Significant Share in the Light Beer Industry

The light beer industry in North America witnessed a significant growth in the historical period owing to the increased popularity of beer across various countries, especially in the United States. The market has been driven by the high consumer purchasing power, high standards of living, and a significant investment by the key players in product marketing. Over the forecast period, the market is expected to be aided by the growing risk of diabetes in the region, as light beer is known for its fewer calories compared with a reference, full-strength version.

Changing Consumer Preference Towards Beverages with Less Alcoholic and Calorific Value to Boost the Growth of the Light Beer Industry

The global market for light beer is driven by the changing consumer preference towards beverages with lower alcohol content, owing to the increasing inclination of people towards health and fitness. As light beer has low alcoholic and calorific value, it allows people to limit alcohol and calorie intake, further helping them control the negative side-effects of excessive beer consumption, such as diarrhoea, weight-gain, and lost-control of the senses, among others. In addition, the rapid expansion of supermarkets and hypermarkets and speciality stores, particularly in emerging nations, is expected to further aid the market growth in the forecast period, as this would enhance the availability of light beer, propelling the sales of the product.
