📣 “Brewing provide a distinct economic and social contribution; brewers are innovative and support sustainability, while beer brings people together. We also lead the way in promoting moderate consumption as part of a balanced lifestyle, by equipping adult consumers with the tools and choices to drink better. Policymakers should recognise our role and develop regulation that prioritises partnerships, policies and practices that encourage the adoption of lower alcohol products like beer.” #brewing #beer #moderation #sustainability #europe The Brewers of Europe Lille 2024 - EBC Congress and The Brewers of Europe Forum Cervejeiros de Portugal

Australia’s beer industry is at a historic low, with only 32.5% of Australians drinking beer — the lowest level in 80 years. This trend is being driven by a cultural pivot, led by Gen Z, toward low or no-alcohol options as wellness priorities grow and the cost of socialising increases. But there’s more to the story. Our report reveals that rising government taxes and changing consumer preferences are hitting the Australian craft beer industry the hardest, pushing local breweries to adapt or risk becoming obsolete. In contrast, Singapore is emerging as a market leader, with innovative low-alcohol alternatives gaining ground. Jamie Wong’s recent article for The Peak Magazine explores how these forces are reshaping social behaviours and what this means for brands navigating the future of Australia’s beer market.

Thrilled to launch my side project - Earlybird and our low-alc Bushy-Tailed XPA. With more health-conscious folk saying no to alcohol, not drinking at work and social events has been well and truly normalised. But the barrier for me and many others was never just social norms, it was much simpler – taste. I couldn’t justify reaching for a ‘it’s not too bad’ or a ‘that’s the best one I’ve tried’ option over one of my beloved hoppy ales. At Earlybird, we've created a naturally fermented beer to rival your favourite full-strength craft beers. Our Bushy-Tailed XPA has a hoppy, tropical fruit-forward taste with a dry finish. We've embraced low-attenuating yeast, which preserves complex carbs and flavours, setting us apart from other zero-alc options that use taste-destroying yeasts or brewing methods to stay under 0.5% ABV. The result is a ‘good different’ product that lets you enjoy your work and social events, without feeling it the morning after. So, if you’re tired of flavourless low alc options, or like me want your Sunday mornings back to spend with family, try our XPA and flip hangovers the bird. Grab a slab at drinkearlybird.com.au, follow us on Insta @drinkearlybird or if you’re interested in stocking us at your place of work, message me for a taster and chat (we’ve got folk in Melbourne, Sydney and Perth). #TakeBackTomorrow
