One of the fastest growing sectors within the beer industry is currently flavored beer. However, this term encompasses two distinct sub-categories – true flavored beers and beer mixes. Flavored beers are defined by Canadean as normal strength beers with added flavors. These flavors are often fruit, typically citrus, but increasingly including a range of more exotic fruits. Another source of flavors is spirits, such as Tequila or Scotch Whisky.

Beer Mixes are beers mixed with soft drinks, typically lemonade, but also cola, fruit juice, or even Iced Tea. Beer Mixes are normally around half the strength of “normal” beer (2.0% to 2.5% Abv). These products go under a range of names like Shandy (UK); Panach (France); or Radler (Germany). They are also sometimes referred to as Beer Coolers, taking the lead from Wine Coolers (normally a mix of wine and fruit juice).

A Brief History of Flavored Beer & Beer Mixes

For such a traditional product, it is interesting that the practice of adding things to beer to make it sweeter has been going on for a long time and in many markets. Herbs and spices were often added to beer in medieval times, both for their beneficial effects, and to mask the flavor of poorer quality beers. Indeed it was the adulteration of beer in Germany that led to the enactment of the Beer Purity Law (the Reinheitsgebot) in 1516.

Drivers of Flavored Beer & Beer Mix Growth

The primary driver behind flavored beers and beer mixes is the desire for sweeter, easier to drink beers. This also makes flavored beers appealing to female consumers. However the two sub-categories have slightly different consumer drivers.

With their lower alcohol content and use of sharp, refreshing flavours, beer mixes also clearly target the need for refreshment and therefore are particularly popular in warmer weather. The lower alcohol content of these beers also is appealing to consumers with increasingly hectic lifestyles.

Geographical Spread of Flavored Beers and Beer Mixes

Flavored Beer and Beer Mixes are primarily found in developed markets, mostly in Europe and North America.

Beer Mixes are essentially a European phenomenon, with Europe accounting for over 95% of volume. Prior to 2011, they were virtually limited to West Europe, but the recent boom in Radlers in East Europe means that Eastern & Central European markets now account for approaching a third of all volumes worldwide.
