The National Beer Wholesalers Association (NBWA) released the Beer Purchasers' Index (BPI) for February 2023.

The February BPI shows a potential shift towards a more positive outlook for the beer industry in 2023. It's been ten months since the industry has seen an above-50 BPI and a below-50 ARI (at-risk inventory). For most of 2022, beer distributors were cautious with respect to their beer purchases. The industry recorded six out of twelve months with below 50 BPI index readings and above 50 ARI readings—indicating too much inventory in distributor warehouses. The February results reflect a BPI of 54 and an ARI of 46. After two disruptive years in 2021 and 2022, this is positive news for the beer industry.

No- and low-alcohol category tops $11B in 2022 with growth accelerating, IWSR says

Once mocked, no/low-alcohol has made its mark in the beverage category, with many in the industry predicting it has long-term staying power. Beverage companies have quickly taken notice.

"The dynamic no/low-alcohol category presents opportunities for incremental sales growth as consumers are recruited from drinks categories such as soft drinks and water," said Susie Goldspink, the head of no- and low-alcohol at IWSR. "As more people opt to avoid alcohol on certain occasions – or abstain from it altogether – no-alcohol is steadily increasing its share of the no/low category."

Premium beer products were one of the top growth markets of 2022, says IWSR
