In recent years, consumers are making thoughtful decisions about their alcohol choices. The health and wellness trend has inundated the market with non-alcoholic drink options, from non-alcoholic malt beverages to low calorie RTD beverages. However, alcohol remains a permissible indulgence and features in many social occasions which continues to influence the demand for alcohol ingredients. Although health consciousness is on the rise, consumers taste never settle and gradually change in subtle shifts and evolutions. Manufacturers are thus hard pressed to keep with newer trends in order to stay ahead of the pack.
Growth of the alcohol ingredients market can be attributed to increased number of microbreweries and rise in experiential drinking, especially among young demographic. Today, consumers are looking to do more than just consumption, which in turn drives alcohol brands to offer more co-creation and customization experiences. Subsequently, manufactures of alcohol ingredients will need to be ahead of the curve to set their ingredients apart from the competition. Migration of consumers from beer to high-priced spirits and growing array of healthier alcohol are further compelling manufactures of alcohol ingredients to explore their untapped potential, particularly in the area of premiumization and convenience.
