Industry Trends and Drivers:

• Changing Consumer Lifestyles and At-Home Entertainment:

Socializing and entertaining evolved in the modern world. Canned alcohol opportunities evolved too. More and more consumers favor entertaining at home rather than going out, and they look for convenient, premium products that require little labor when they prepare for social occasions. Canned alcohol fits right in with this trend. Canned beers and wines are easy to store in a refrigerator, easy to serve, and pre-measured, so whether you're having a barbecue in the backyard, or hosting a dinner party where cocktails are being served, you know exactly what you're going to get. Younger consumers want convenient and relatively inexpensive options. These consumers want different flavors without buying whole bottles, and they follow the growing trend of consuming spirits at home, so variety packs and samplers have risen in popularity because these allow consumers to try different types of spirits.

• The Craft Beverage Revolution Goes Mainstream:

Speakers stressed that craft breweries and distilleries, while once the outliers, were fast becoming the norm for canned alcoholic beverages at present. Canned craft producers showed consumers that cans can deliver a better quality and unique and interesting flavor experience, and products can be taken on the go. The craft beer trend has since been replicated with canned wines, premium cocktails and craft hard seltzers, which are often flavored with elderflower, hibiscus and exotic fruits. Craft, especially, can create strong local followings, with their fans often following them into other beverage categories, leading to success outside their core market. For instance, Dirty Water was launched as a session hard seltzer in August 2024 and achieved penetration into the competitive New York City market via influencer partnerships. The craft approach has been described as stressing authenticity, transparency and storytelling with the goal of appealing to consumers overwhelmed by the quantity of mass-produced products. The efforts of smaller companies to grow and form distribution relationships with major retailers may increase participation and interest in the market.

• Health and Wellness Meets Alcoholic Beverages:

Today, people are looking into a guilt-free way to drink alcohol and, obviously, the industry is responding with new products that fall in line with health trends. Demand exploded. Millennials and Gen Z drive this because they consider their consumption. This has been seen in hard seltzers' popularity. These drinks offer more health-conscious choices, for example 100 calories per can, compared to the 150-200 calories of other mixed alcoholic cocktails and beers. Consumers perceive ingredient lists then scrutinize them. They want more products including natural flavors plus real fruit juice without artificial ingredients. Many grocery food brands now provide nutritional information on packaging. Some brands even add additional functional ingredients, such as vitamins or electrolytes, to promote the products for use by active people. Citrus flavors, which comprise 34.8% of the hard seltzer category, are sometimes used because they have a fresh, light and healthy profile. Instead, it is an entire cultural shift that may be changing the way younger generations think about drinking on a wider level.

• Sustainability Driving Packaging Innovation:

The demand for more sustainable products is seeing growth across all product categories, and canned alcoholic beverages are included in this. Aluminum cans can be recycled indefinitely without any loss of quality, and are at a higher recycling rate than glass bottles (around 70% globally). Outside of their recyclability, cans have logistics advantages, as they weigh less than glass and therefore require less fuel to transport, resulting in lower carbon emissions. Cans also better protect beverages from the damaging effects of light and oxygen than many other types of beverage container, reducing spoilage and wastage. Many large manufacturers use recycled aluminum and produce cans in a carbon neutral fashion. Canned alcoholic beverages have a niche marketing appeal to the environmentally conscious, especially to younger buyers who consider environmental impact an important influence on their purchasing behavior. This has helped them gain more shelf space, as well as mind-share, as they communicate their environmental impact to consumers.
