Boutique Brews, Barley, and the Balance Sheet: Changes in malt barley industrial use require an updated forecasting approach

Expanding
Craft Beer Production Boosts Industrial Use of Barley
“Expanding production and consumption of craft beer has created a need to update the methods used to estimate barley use for malting and brewing, which are collectively called “industrial” purposes. Previous approaches have relied on the historical relationship between malt and malt products (and therefore malt barley) use for lager-style beer production. However, the production of craft-style beer typically requires proportionally more malt per barrel than the same volume of the common American light-lager or “non-craft” beer.”
