How Beyond Beer Beat Beer

mercredi 18 septembre 2024 • Durée 23:47

Giving context to top news from across alcohol through the reporting and research we've conducted at Sightlines:

1. Beer produced and sold in the U.S. continues a downward trajectory. Latest data from the Beer Institute shows that between May and July, American breweries declined 10 million barrels compared to the same time frame a decade ago. So, what’s the cause? It’s easy to point at cannabis or the “sober-curious,” but we’ll give proper context for what’s going on.

2. While beer slumps, FMBs and RTDs dominate. Across beer, wine, and spirits, “4th category” brands are actually slowing losses as consumers find new kinds of drinks and flavor experiences that give them what they want. We’ll explain the current and long term impact of what this means.

Cross-Category Theme Parties

lundi 16 juin 2025 • Durée 45:08

Beverages on the intoxicating end of the functional spectrum have never been more varied - and neither have the experiences and relavitve cognitive dissonance of attending their major industry conferences. The narratives around what does and doesnt’ connect with consumers, and what’s driving growth is often over simplified, biased toward regulation and politics, and more often than not, shockingly out of touch with how it all transaltes, or doesn’t to the end consumer’s experience.

Every beverage category exists in a bubble of sorts - but that doens’t have to be the case. At Sightlines.news, we work hard to show insights that hold true across categories, driven by consumer data and insights, and help our subscribers find their way through the narratives and noise.

Now depending on the conference you’re at, your mileage may vary. But increasingly we’re seeing more conversations that are cross-category where producers and value chain partners are informing each other, and learning from a broader set of perspectives.

Today, me and Sightlines Kate Bernot download about recent expriences at the craft brewers confernce and various guilds, as well as the ebev confernece in Indianapolis about some of the topics we’re overheading, and in some case leading the coveration on.
