Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2022, the Lithuanian beer market experienced a steady expansion in consumption volume, rising from 271.5 million liters to a peak of 295.6 million liters. This growth was interrupted in 2023 when market volume dropped sharply to 271.8 million liters and further declined to 265.5 million liters in 2024.

In value terms, the market displayed greater volatility. After increasing to 257.0 million US dollars in 2019, it contracted to 201.6 million in 2020 before recovering to 237.8 million by 2024. The value of beer imports and exports saw significant increases, particularly in 2023, reflecting changes in pricing or product mix.

Domestic beer production volume grew from 290.7 million liters in 2018 to a high of 334.3 million in 2021, then trended downward to 306.6 million in 2024. Over the same period, export volumes remained substantial, indicating Lithuania's role as a net exporter of beer.
