The latest NIQ On Premise analysis reveals a beer category that continues to face volume pressure, but one where performance varies significantly by segment, format, and occasion. The findings also highlight meaningful shifts in on-premise consumption that extend beyond topline category performance.
This report examines the underlying trends shaping beverage performance through the first half of 2026, including category growth, market share shifts, channel performance, and product innovation.
More than half (55.45%) of Brewers Association (BA) defined regional craft breweries beyond the top 50 recorded production volume declines in 2025, but there are still signs of improvement compared to 2024, according to annual data shared last week by the trade group.

In the on-premise channel, bars and restaurants have earned more than $12,000 on average from the sale of cocktails in the first quarter of 2022, compared to the 12 weeks that ended October 22, reported CGA, which focuses on on-premise retail occasions.

The beer industry is on track to have a strong start to the summer selling season, according to the National Beer Wholesalers Association’s (NBWA’s) May Beer Purchasers Index (BPI).
A confluence of factors – the reopening of the on-premise channel, distributed packaging sales, and monetary relief from the federal government – helped boost many of the country’s regional craft breweries to growth in 2021. Nearly four-fifths of the regional craft brewers beyond the top 50 increased production in 2021, according to data published in the May/June edition of the Brewers Association’s (BA) New Brewer magazine.
As the on-premise began to reanimate after a year of pandemic-driven closures and restrictions, 28 of the top 50 Brewers Association-defined (BA) craft breweries posted volume increases in 2021, according to data published today in the May/June edition of the trade group’s New Brewer magazine. Last year, the BA reported craft beer’s volume declined -9% in 2020 – the first time the trade group that represents the nation’s small and independent breweries recorded a volume loss in the industry’s modern era – and a majority (36) of the top 50 saw their output decline compared to 2019.
Large regional breweries that fall outside of the BA’s definition of a craft brewer collectively produced more than 8.64 million barrels of beer in 2021, a +2% increase on a comparable basis, according to data provided by the trade organization. The BA excludes companies that are at least 25% owned by a larger brewing company from its craft brewery data set and sets a production ceiling for BA-defined craft brewers at 6 million barrels.
