독일 무알콜 맥주 수출 시장 (12월, 2022)

German hop growers and breweries are facing significant challenges due to increasing costs and a poor hop harvest, with around 4-5 percent of hop farms potentially shutting down. The hop harvest was 28 percent lower than the previous year, leading to a revenue loss of 88 million euros and additional costs of 46 million euros. Breweries are also struggling, with some companies in a critical situation and unable to increase beer prices. This has led to suggestions that breweries may reduce capacities and close sites, with some potentially shutting down entirely.
