The increasing number of M&A drives market growth, although factors such as stringent regulations and heavy taxation will impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers, trends, and challenges will help stakeholders in the value chain refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The increasing number of M&A is a major trend supporting the black beer market share growth. Successful M&A help vendors increase their market share and gain access to new products and technologies. The high popularity of dark beer has encouraged major vendors to opt for M&A and acquire smaller players specializing in this category. In addition to acquisitions, there have been instances where key players operating in the global dark beer market have either invested in small regional breweries and distributors or have acquired them to benefit from the tremendous growth potential of the market.
In September 2021, AB-InBev announced the acquisition of Anheuser-Busch in a $52 billion takeover; this will help in coping with falling consumption in traditionally big markets. Similarly, in March 2021, Boneyard Beer announced its acquisition by Deschutes Brewery. Acquisitions are expected to strengthen the market presence of vendors by enabling them to offer a diverse portfolio of products in the dark beer category.
The stringent regulations and heavy taxation will be a major challenge for the market share growth during the forecast period. Vendors operating in the global dark beer market must comply with regulations and taxation policies that pertain to the marketing and consumption of dark beer. These regulations and policies are implemented by various governmental and non-governmental agencies. Adherence to various sectoral laws, regulations, and taxation policies across industries and verticals is a challenge for many vendors.
The global dark beer market is highly regulated. Regulatory bodies must approve products, from ingredients to labels on bottles, before they are sent to shops for sale. Regulations are imposed to protect consumers from contaminated and alcoholic beverages in defective packages. Ingredients used as raw materials to manufacture premium alcoholic beverages and packaging labels used by vendors come under heavy scrutiny by authorities. High taxes on dark beer may further reduce the profitability of vendors and negatively impact the growth of the global dark beer market during the forecast period.

The dark beer segmentation by packaging consists of cans and bottles. Beer is largely packed and sold in metal cans. The preference for the metal in beer packaging is because it is lightproof and recyclable and provides a hermetic seal. An average aluminium beverage can contain more than 60% recycled aluminium content in it. The growing demand for beer metal cans is expected to propel the growth of the market in this segment. Cans are impenetrable to the damaging effects of light, besides being 100% recyclable. In addition, they can be recycled indefinitely.
The dark beer segmentation by distribution channel consists of off-trade and on-trade. The market share growth of the off-trade segment will be significant during the forecast period. Some of the most common off-trade distribution channels for dark beer are individual retailers, supermarkets, and hypermarkets. These distribution channels allow consumers to choose from different varieties of dark beer. Off-trade distribution channels offer convenience and have extended hours of operation. These factors are expected to drive the growth of the off-trade distribution segment during the forecast period.
