The market share growth by the fermentation systems segment will be significant during the forecast period. The fermentation process takes the longest time compared with the other processes involved in the production of craft beer, and hence, microbreweries require many fermentation systems to store large volumes of unprocessed craft beer, which increases their adoption. Many companies in the market are offering fabricated tanks and on-site fabricated tanks that are tailor-made solutions for fermentation systems.

The fermentation systems segment was valued at USD 3.61 billion in 2018. In the case of on-site fabricated systems, the company prefabricates individual components at the factory and inspects the attributes of the system according to the regional regulations of the country of destination. Afterward, the tanks are shipped to the erection site in parts that can be easily assembled. Therefore, such diversified offerings of fermentation systems by companies are expected to drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.

North America is estimated to contribute 37% to the growth during the forecast year. Technavio's analysts have provided extensive insight into the market forecasting, detailing the regional trends and drivers influencing the market's trajectory throughout the forecast period. The market in North America is experiencing significant growth due to the increasing popularity of distilled liquors and routine brewed beer. Small-scale breweries and home brewers are investing in state-of-art equipment to produce high-quality beer, including fermentation equipment and filtration systems. The rising consumer demand for craft beer, driven by the desire for new flavors and tastes, is fueling this trend. Microbreweries require various tools and brew house equipment to produce beer from water, tea, nutrients, and grains (barley), which are rich in vitamins, fiber, polyphenols, and antioxidants, contributing to heart health, lower cholesterol, and the prevention of kidney stones. Further, the market for microbrewery equipment is expected to grow as more people discover the joys of brewing and consuming their own unique beer creations. These expansions are expected to considerably drive the demand for microbrewery equipment, which will drive the growth of the market in the region during the forecast period.
The market has experienced significant growth in recent years, driven by the increasing demand for high-quality craft beers among beer drinkers. This trend is particularly evident in the operation of small-scale breweries, which prioritize the use of state-of-art equipment for brewing, fermentation, and filtration processes. These tools are essential for producing beers with unique flavors and characteristics, which differentiate them from mass-produced beers offered by macro breweries. Microbreweries invest in advanced equipment, such as malt handling systems, brew house equipment, and monitoring tools, to ensure the production of high-quality beers. The use of macros grains, like barley, and vitamins in the brewing process contributes to the nutritional value of the final product. However, the potential for virus transmission during the brewing process can have detrimental effects on both the beer and the health of the brewers. Therefore, proper sanitation and adherence to safety protocols are crucial. In summary, the Microbrewery Equipment Market is a vital sector that caters to the needs of small breweries and home brewers, providing them with the necessary tools to produce high-quality beers, including flavorful lagers and ales, while ensuring the safety and health of beer drinkers.
Shift in consumers' tastes and preferences is notably driving market growth. In the digital age, the market has experienced significant growth due to the increasing quantity and quality of craft beer systems. Consumers' preferences have shifted towards experimenting with unique flavors, leading to an expansion of offerings beyond traditional beer. Microbreweries now produce a diverse range of craft beers with flavors such as Vidalia onion, guava, chocolate, and coconut.
Moreover, the market's growth is further fueled by social distancing and contactless delivery trends, enabling consumers to enjoy high-quality craft beers from the comfort of their homes. These factors are expected to continue driving the growth of the global market in the foreseeable future.
An emerging trend in the market is the growing popularity of canned craft beer. In the microbrewery equipment, there has been a notable shift towards canning systems for craft beer production. This trend is driven by several factors, including the preservation of quality and quantity. Aluminum cans, in particular, offer broader openings that effectively prevent the intrusion of light and oxygen, ensuring the beer's taste remains consistent.
Further, as we move into the digital age, social distancing and contactless delivery have become essential considerations. Canned craft beer aligns with these requirements, as it can be easily stored, transported, and consumed without direct contact. As a result, these factors are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.
The market growth is impeded by a significant challenge posed by the presence of substitutes. In the current market landscape, the microbrewery equipment market faces significant competition from other alcoholic beverages, including wine and spirits, which attract a substantial following, particularly among non-beer drinkers, especially women. The digital age and social distancing norms have led to an increase in contactless delivery systems, favoring the growth of wine and spirits due to their perceived higher quality and health benefits.
As a result, the quantity of microbrewery equipment demanded may decrease. However, maintaining quality and adapting to the changing market trends through advanced technology and sustainable practices can help microbreweries remain competitive. Therefore, these factors are likely to impede market growth during the forecast period.
Companies are implementing various strategies, such as strategic alliances, partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, geographical expansion, and product/service launches, to enhance their presence in the market.
