Australia Ginger Beer Market to Grow with a CAGR of 8.28% through 2030

Australia's ginger beer market is growing due to rising demand for craft, premium, and health-conscious beverages. Alcoholic variants and innovative flavors are driving expansion, while e-commerce and premiumization create new opportunities for brands.

According to TechSci Research report, “Australia Ginger Beer Market – By Region, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, Australia Ginger Beer Market was valued at USD 97.28 Million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 156.79 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 8.28% during the forecast period. The Australian ginger beer market is experiencing dynamic growth, fueled by evolving consumer preferences and innovative product development. A key driver is the increasing demand for premium and craft beverages, with consumers willing to pay more for artisanal, small-batch products that offer unique flavor profiles and high-quality ingredients. This trend is particularly evident in the alcoholic ginger beer segment, which is gaining popularity among younger demographics seeking low-ABV, flavorful alternatives to traditional beers and ciders. The market is also benefiting from the growing health and wellness movement, as consumers perceive ginger beer as a natural, functional beverage with digestive benefits, especially in its non-alcoholic, reduced-sugar formulations.

However, the market faces significant challenges, including supply chain vulnerabilities affecting ginger sourcing and packaging material availability, which have been exacerbated by global disruptions. Rising production costs are squeezing margins, forcing brands to either absorb expenses or risk pricing out cost-conscious consumers. Another major hurdle is the competitive landscape, where established players dominate shelf space, making it difficult for smaller craft brands to gain visibility without substantial marketing investments. Additionally, the industry must navigate tightening regulations around sugar content and labeling requirements, requiring costly reformulations while maintaining taste integrity. Despite these challenges, opportunities abound in flavor innovation, sustainable packaging solutions, and direct-to-consumer sales channels, which are helping brands differentiate in a crowded market. The market's future growth will likely hinge on balancing premiumization with affordability, addressing health-conscious demands without alienating traditional consumers, and optimizing supply chains to mitigate cost pressures. Brands that can successfully navigate these complexities while capitalizing on emerging trends will be well-positioned to thrive in Australia's competitive ginger beer landscape.

The Australia Ginger Beer market is segmented into type, distribution channel, flavor and region.

Based on type, the Australian ginger beer market is broadly segmented into alcoholic and non-alcoholic variants, each catering to distinct consumer preferences. Non-alcoholic ginger beer dominated the market, driven by its appeal as a refreshing, spicy soft drink alternative. Brands like Bundaberg, Schweppes, and Bickford’s lead this segment, offering traditional and flavored options that serve as standalone beverages or cocktail mixers. The demand for non-alcoholic ginger beer is fueled by health-conscious consumers seeking low-sugar, natural, and caffeine-free options. In contrast, alcoholic ginger beer is the fastest-growing segment, benefiting from the rising popularity of craft beverages and ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktails. Brands such as Brookvale Union, Stone & Wood, and Mojo Beverages are capitalizing on the trend toward sessionable, low-alcohol (3-4% ABV) drinks, which appeal to younger legal-drinking-age consumers. The alcoholic segment is also gaining traction due to its use in premium cocktails like the Moscow Mule, driving demand in bars and restaurants. While non-alcoholic ginger beer holds the larger market share, the alcoholic segment is expanding rapidly, supported by innovation in flavored and premium craft brews.

Based on region, Queensland is the fastest-growing region for ginger beer, fueled by its tropical climate, tourism-driven demand, and local production advantages. Bundaberg Brewed Drinks, based in Queensland, is a market leader, leveraging its regional heritage to dominate shelf space. The state’s thriving craft beverage scene has also spurred growth in artisanal and alcoholic ginger beers, particularly in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Tourism hotspots like Cairns and the Sunshine Coast further boost sales, with ginger beer being a popular refreshment in beachside bars and resorts. Queensland’s growth is further accelerated by rising interest in flavored and spiced variants, appealing to both locals and visitors seeking bold, exotic tastes.

“In recent years, the rise of e-commerce and digital marketing is transforming how ginger beer brands connect with consumers. While supermarkets and liquor stores remain dominant sales channels, DTC models are gaining momentum, especially among craft producers. Brands are leveraging subscription services, online marketplaces (e.g., Amazon, Dan Murphy’s online), and their own e-commerce platforms to reach customers directly, bypassing traditional retail markups. Social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok play a pivotal role in brand discovery, with companies using influencer partnerships, cocktail recipe content, and behind-the-scenes brewing videos to engage audiences. Limited-edition drops and crowdsourced flavor development (e.g., inviting consumers to vote on new variants) further enhance community loyalty.” Said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Director of TechSci Research, a research-based management consulting firm.
