Beer output of global top 40 brewers declines in 2023
Germany | Hop firm BarthHaas estimates that the beer output of the world’s 40 largest breweries fell by 2.2 percent to around 1.62 billion hl. Still, they controlled a staggering 86 percent of global production. It is also striking how concentrated global beer production is: The top 3 brewers alone – AB-InBev, Heineken and China Resources Snow Breweries – account for more than half of the top 40’s output.
