Market Overview
The Global Hops market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.5%, during the forecast period (2020 - 2025).
A transitional shift in the demand for bittering hops from aroma varieties and a positive trajectory in the growth of craft breweries across the world are driving the global hops market. According to a study by Barth-Haas, in Germany, the demand for bittering varieties, such as Polaris and Herkules, grew by almost 30% and 8.8%, respectively, in 2017. The United States, one of the largest hop consuming markets, registered a growth of 8.9% during 2018-2019, with the total number of breweries rising to 8,386 in 2019 from 7,698 in 2018 (The Brewers Association).
Europe was the fastest-growing market in 2019, with Germany and the United Kingdom leading the regional market. Germany imported a total of 5,952.0 metric tons of hop cones in 2019, followed by the United Kingdom with total imports of 1,226.0 metric tons during the same year. Apart from imported hops, the region has also witnessed a steady revival in the cultivation of hops in Germany, where the prouction stood at 32,527.0 metric ton in 2018, as against 32,053.0 metric ton in 2016.
Scope of the Report
Hops are the flowers of the hop plant, Humulus lupulus, that are primarily used as a bittering, flavoring, and stability agent in beer. For the purpose of the study, fresh or dried hop cones with the HS code 121010, as per the UN Comtrade statistical database, have been considered under the scope. The market is segmented into geography into five regions, viz., North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, and Africa, that further encompass a qualitative as well as a quantitative analysis of the production, consumption, and trade of hops in the major countries across the regions. The review period considered for the study is 2016-2019 and the forecast period 2020-2025.

Key Market Trends
Craft Beer Elevating the Demand for Bittering Hops
The fresh or dried hop market is currently dominated by a major shift in the demand for bittering hops from aromatic varieties, as the craft breweries strengthen globally. In the United States, the retail craft brewery market was valued at USD 29.30 billion in 2019, witnessing a growth of 4% in volume sales and accounting for 13.6% of the total beer market in the United States, in terms of volume. Simultaneously, the number of craft breweries in the United States grew to 8,275 in 2019, a 9.1% increase over 7,594 in 2018, as per the Brewers Association. Moreover, according to a study by Barth-Haas, the demand for aromatic hops declined by 10.8% for Hull Melon, 9.8% for Mandarina Bavaria, and 4.9% for Hallertauer Mittelfrüh in Germany in 2017. However, bittering hops such as Polaris and Herkules, witnessed a surge of 30% and 8.8%, respectively, during the same year. Moreover, the growing inclination of the consumers towards craft beer resulted in a surmounted number of 82 new craft breweries established in 2017 in the country. As a result, the growing demand for craft beer is inflicting a positive impact on the demand for bittering hops, especially in the United States and Germany, thus, driving the overall hop market.
