Earlier, the beer industry in Europe had a local presence, with only a few players having an international reach. Thanks to the rapid development of the beer sector in Western Europe and Eastern Europe, the beer industry in Europe is now well poised for rapid expansion. Beer consumption patterns in Eastern Europe are undergoing many positive trends, which is why growth is expected to be optimistic.

Moreover, the increasing health benefits of beer, such as its ability to cure insomnia and the capacity to lower cholesterol are predicted to propel the Europe beer market in the near future.

Currently, manufacturers of beer are concentrating on capturing the untapped market across Europe.
