Intro Moderation Weight Concerns Novelty The Future

• Least worried age group is 18-24 year olds

• Today’s youngest drinkers are drinking less than previous generations did in their youth2 and they are more likely to proactively seek products that improve their health compared to older generations who prefer a more reactive approach. Therefore, demand for low and no-alcohol beverages extends across all age groups and their appeal is growing among younger drinkers.

Weight Management Weight -conscious consumers are demanding low-calorie /low-fat alcoholic beverage options

Low-calorie, high-quality beverages are in demand, especially amongst the young The challenge for producers is to find the right balance between maintaining taste and flavor while also reducing calorie counts. Some producers are looking to take the health appeal of their products a step further by adding extra nutritional qualities, such as MuscleFood’s high-protein low calorie beers.

Muscle Food - Barbell Brew1

This UK exclusive 3.6% ABV ‘beer’ is the first of its kind, containing 21.8 grams of protein, 92 calories and 1.65g of carbohydrates per serving.

•The brew is likely to appeal to male gym-goers and health-conscious consumers wanting an alternative alcoholic beverage that is protein-rich and low in calories. This product is likely to do well given that men are more likely to drink less alcohol to reduce weight than women

Suntory - Sumiwataru Umeshu2

Suntory have created a healthier umeshu, a Japanese liquor, that contains 50% less sugar compared to Suntory’s other umeshu products.

The liquor is made with 100% ume fruit grown in Japan and blended with natural spring water.

Thomson & Scott – Skinny Prosecco3

•This certified organic and vegan product contains 7 grams of sugar per liter, meaning it has about half the sugar content of regular prosecco. Each glass is said to contain around 67 calories, compared to the average glass of prosecco which contains about 80 calories4.

The product is likely to appeal to those drinkers conscious of their sugar and calorie intake.

Asahi Next Draft The Dream – Low Carbohydrates Beer

Asahi Next Draft The Dream banner contains 5% abv but with 50% less carbohydrates compared to an average beer. It uses 1.2 times more malt than average beer to create richer

PangPang Brewery – Shower Beer1

This Pale Ale in Sweden is designed to be consumed in three gulps while standing in the shower getting ready for a night out.

Identifying an unusual niche occasion to build a beer around can prove successful, as in the case of this shower beer which have already sold out and the brewery is working on a second batch.

Novelty Factor Examples we like: Novelty alcoholic drinks

[1] GlobalData’s Product Launch Analytics database; [2] inews.com; [3] Firebox.com; [4]Stacktek.com

StackTek4

This company has created a unique packaging alternative to traditional glass wine bottles.

StackTek consists of four ‘glasses’ of wine that snap together. Rather than being made of glass, the ‘glasses’ are made from 100% BPA-free plastic, making it reusable, easy to transport and share.

This unique packaging allows the product to stand out from the crowd and it is likely to resonate with those looking for a more novel wine consumption experience.

Firebox - Unicorn Tear Gin3

Novelty is weaved throughout this unique product, with the producer stating: “This gin liqueur is made from real Unicorn tears…using our free range Unicorn herd and our closely-guarded extraction process”.

The gin is labelled as vegan and contains edible silver flakes that give it it’s “iridescent glittery appearance”.

This novel twist on gin is likely to resonate with those consumers that value brands with fun and exciting personalities.

ARK handcraft beer, Hong Kong Recently launched in Hong Kong, this wheat beer product features coriander, orange peel, and

ginger. Ginger is starting to feature more heavily in alcoholic drinks launches, and appeals to consumers for a variety of reasons. Firstly, ginger is a familiar yet bold ingredient, allowing less experimental consumers to challenge themselves with new flavor combinations. Secondly, and having made its way from ancient medicine into food and tea, the perceived benefits of ginger mean that products featuring it benefit from positive associations with comfort, warmth, and recuperation.

Innovation Implications Innovation implications across each global/ asia alcoholic drinks trend

Positioning Packaging

• Label alcoholic beverages as healthier alternatives to conventional alcoholic drinks, but avoid slandering alcoholic beverages if they within the same product portfolio

• Adapt packaging to help consumers identify the beverage as an alternative to conventional alcoholic drinks while giving the beverage a sophisticated, premium feel

• Promote the product as an alcoholic beverage that offers a pleasurable, guilt-free experience.

• Packaging and product names should align with the target audience, with words such as “skinny”, “light” or “zero”.

• Create a novel brand personality / history to align with your product image and target market

• Packaging that is unique in shape and color with interactivity can enhance a product’s novelty and appeal

The Future Nuggets for Thoughts : Future opportunities for Alcoholic drinks

Source: [1] Garcon Wines; [2] The Spirits Business; [3] Independent, September 2016; Images from Shutterstock

1 year 3 years 5-plus years

Alcoholic beverage subscriptions

The popularity of FMCG mail subscription services (e.g. Graze snack subscriptions in

UK and US) will extend into alcoholic drinks. Brands can take inspiration from

Garcon Wines in the UK who have developed a thin wine bottle, made from

plastic, that can fit through mail boxes and

does not break during transit.1 Weekly subscriptions allow consumers to

trial new products regularly for little cost or risk.

Hangover-free alcohol

British scientist and professor at London’s Imperial College, David Nutt, is creating

‘Alcosynth’, a non-toxic synthetic alcohol that mimics the positive effects of

alcohol without damaging your liver and heart. The non-toxicity of ‘Alcosynth’ also

means it is “hangover-free”. Nutt is so confident in his product that he had

patented around 90 compounds used to produce it and has said that it will replace

alcohol entirely by 20503. Though, Alcosynth must first overcome numerous regulatory hurdles before it can reach the

mass market.

Alcohol Ecommerce

While the food sector has established ecommerce platforms such as ‘Deliveroo’ and ‘Uber Eats’, the alcohol industry is yet to see any dominant equivalents. Though

this is set to change with alcohol multinationals set to launch their own ecommerce platforms or investing in startups. According to Nick Rellas, co-founder and CEO of ‘Drizly’, one of the first alcohol delivery platforms, online

alcohol sales will equate to $7-15 billion annually in the US over the next few

years2.
