BeerThe Irish Beer Market Report 2018
The Irish Brewers Association (IBA) ‘Beer Market Report’ highlights the role of the brewing sector in Ireland’s economy. Beer comfortably remains Ireland’s favourite alcohol beverage with a 45% market share in 2018. Last year Ireland’s economy continued to perform well with a growth of just under 7%. This was driven by strong growth in consumer spending, investment, and exports which was facilitated by growth in employment and wages. With household incomes growing by 6%, disposable income per person is now back above its peak levels for the first time.
2018 saw total beer sales by 3%, although per capita consumption rose fractionally by just 0.4%. This marginal increase in per capita consumption is in line with an overall trend that people in Ireland are drinking much less alcohol with the average per adult consumption rate falling by 23% since 2001. The increase in total beer sales is reflected in the increase in beer production in Ireland by 3.8% in 2018 compared to the previous year. Direct employment in Ireland’s brewing sector also rose in 2018 by 3%.
However, the increase in domestic sales has been tempered by a marginal decrease in the value of beer exports by 1.8% to €268 million in 2018. Ireland remains a beer export powerhouse and is the 7th largest exporter of beer in the EU. The UK remains the top destination for Ireland’s beer exports accounting for €109 million worth of exports. Uncertainty around Brexit remains a serious concern for Ireland’s brewing sector. However, it is noticeable that the value of beer exports to France rose from €19 million in 2017 to €32 million in 2018.

In terms of market share of beer variants, lager saw the biggest growth with a 3 point increase in its market share to 63.8%. Stout’s market share dropped from 32.2% to 29.3% while ale’s share fell marginally from 6.6% to 6.3%. It is interesting to note that non-alcoholic beer sales rose by 60% and currently has a 0.6% market share.
Ireland’s on-trade beer sales continue to outperform off-trade sales by 63.5% to 36.5%. Though, off-trade sales have gained ground in recent years. The most recent craft beer sales data from 2017 shows the sector holding a 2.6% market share in sales and a 1.9% share of total beer production.
The brewing sector continues to make a significant contribution to the exchequer both directly and indirectly. In 2018 beer contributed €430 million to the exchequer in excise alone, an increase on the 2017 figure of €424 million. Irish beer drinkers continue to pay the second highest rate of excise on beer in the European Union. In 2012 and 2013 beer excise rates rose by 42% which means that since 2009 the brewing sector has contributed €3.8 billion to the exchequer in excise alone. That’s no small beer…
Beer is a significant economic and cultural asset in Ireland. The IBA calls on the Government to assist the industry by reducing excise on beer in the forthcoming budget.
