The sold production of beer in the UK shows a fluctuating trend. After peaking at 4.8723 billion Euros in 2015, the value has been inconsistent. In 2023, it stood at 3.4552 billion Euros. Year-on-year variations reveal significant changes, such as a 19.5% increase in 2015 and a 20.42% decrease in 2020, largely due to the pandemic. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over recent years reflects a declining trend, with a negative -0.86% CAGR till 2023. Forecasts until 2028 predict a continued decline with a forecasted 5-year CAGR of -2.13%.
Future trends to watch for include changes in consumer preferences towards craft and non-alcoholic beers, potential regulatory impacts, and economic uncertainties, all of which could influence production volumes and value.
