Beverage-alcohol’s off-premise declines eased a bit in the one-week period ending October 19, buoyed by the beer category’s growth brands, according to the latest weekly report from market research firm Circana.
Bev-alc remained in the red in the latest week (data ending October 12) with dollar sales down 3.8% year-over-year (YoY) and 1% week-over-week (WoW) in Circana-tracked off-premise channels, according to the latest weekly report from the market research firm’s EVP of BevAl, Scott Scanlon.
Bev-alc off-premise sales were up slightly week-over-week (WoW) in the latest report from market research firm Circana. However, those gains were unable to stop an acceleration in year-over-year (YoY) declines, as even the “patches of green shoots” previously seen in the industry “have burnt up in the sea of red this week across all categories,” according to Circana EVP of BevAl, Scott Scanlon.
Bev-alc’s new pattern of year-over-year (YoY) off-premise declines continued in the latest week (data ending September 28), according to market research firm Circana and EVP of BevAl Scott Scanlon.
Off-premise dollar sales of beverage-alcohol lingered in the red for another consecutive week, down 2.8% year-over-year (YoY), according to market research firm Circana’s weekly report for the seven-day period ending September 21.
Bev-alc remained in decline in the latest week (data ending September 14), recording “predicted post-holiday results,” according to the most recent weekly report from market research firm Circana and EVP of BevAl Scott Scanlon.
Bev-alc scans returned to typical 2025 patterns post-Labor Day, according to the latest weekly report from market research firm Circana and EVP of BevAl, Scott Scanlon.
Labor Day weekend provided a needed boost in sales for the bev-alc industry, but was yet another occasion where 2025 trends fell below 2024 comps, according to the latest weekly scans report from Circana and the market research firm’s EVP of BevAl, Scott Scanlon.
The unpredictability of weekly bev-alc scans continues to give the industry whiplash. The beer category recorded a -2.7% year-over-year (YoY) dip in dollar sales and 4.3% decline in volume for the week ending August 17, according to the latest report from Circana and the market research firm’s EVP of BevAl, Scott Scanlon.
Bev-alc off-premise dollar sales may have stemmed the outgoing tide of the past several weeks, but were still in the red year-over-year (YoY) and week-over-week (WoW), according to the latest weekly scans report from market research firm Circana.
Any positive vibes recorded in recent weekly data reports may have been a mirage. After some “less pessimistic data” reports, off-premise beverage-alcohol sales have returned to the red, market insights firm Circana shared in its latest weekly report.
The proverbial sun may be parting the bev-alc clouds in the back half of a lackluster summer, with nearly all categories posting positive or flat dollar sales in Circana-tracked off-premise channels in the market research firm’s latest weekly report.
Bev-alc scans improved in the latest week (data ending July 20), with dollar sales increasing 3% week-over-week (WoW) in Circana-tracked off-premise channels, the market research firm shared in its latest report.
