Market Growth Rate 2025-2033: 3.36%
The Russia beer market reached 79.65 Million Hectolitres in 2024 and is projected to grow to 107.24 Million Hectolitres by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 3.36% during 2025-2033. This growth is supported by rising demand for craft and premium beers, increasing consumer preference for non-alcoholic options, and favorable government policies encouraging domestic production.
Growth Drivers of the Russia Beer Market
Government Policies Supporting Domestic Production
In response to the Western sanctions that have been applied to the country and to the desire to support domestic production, the Russian government has also pushed new policies to support local beer production. Excise taxes had a new system in 2023. The reform has also allowed domestic brewers to increase production and invest more in product development since restrictions on foreign beer imports have made domestically produced beer a more attractive choice for consumers. These measures should help the Russian beer market develop through a more self-sufficient dynamic industry.
Rising Popularity of Craft and Premium Beers
The Russia beer industry shows a trend. Consumers spend more on premium and craft beers in it. Younger and urbanized consumer groups are experimenting with niche and premium beers. Many craft breweries have opened throughout Russia too. Local breweries meet the demand for small-scale, artisanal beers. Craft beers and smaller breweries grew due to beer festivals and cultural events. As part of a global trend that produces drinks in a customary way, this segment expects to remain one of the key drivers for market growth in Russia.
Growing Demand for Non-Alcoholic and Low-Alcohol Beers
Health concerns among Russian consumers are a meaningful driver for low and non-alcoholic beer consumption. Campaigns promoting moderation and restrictions on advertising of alcoholic beverages have contributed to this trend. In order to meet such demand, breweries also produce de-alcoholized beer as part of their product range. Industry statistics show that the market for non-alcoholic beer in Russia has been growing steadily, and it now comprises an important portion of the beer market. This is consistent with international health trends, and is expected to influence the future of the beer market in Russia to a greater degree.
