Hops Extract Market

Hops Extract Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Type (Organic, and Conventional), By Extraction Method (CO? Extracts, Isomerized Extracts, Light-Stable Extracts, and Hop Oil Extracts, By Function (Bittering Extract, Aroma Extract, and Dual Purpose Extract), and By Application (Alcoholic Beverages, Food and Beverage, Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics, and Others) Forecast Period (2026-2035)

Published: Feb 2026 | Report Code: OMR2028994 | Category : Food Ingredient | Delivery Format: /

Industry Overview

Global hops extract market was valued at $965 million in 2025 and is projected to reach $1,446 million by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 4.3% during the forecast period (2026–2035).  The global hops extract market has grown from a niche brewing product into an ingredient category serving both brewing and non-brewing applications. Hops extracts, including CO?-based resins, isomerized acids, light-stable extracts, and essential hop oils, provide brewers with consistent bitterness and aroma control compared to traditional hop pellets.

The market expansion is driven primarily by the growth of craft and specialty beer production, which increases demand for consistent and high-quality bitterness and aroma. This is reflected in the US, where the number of operating craft breweries reached a record 9,761 in 2023, including microbreweries, brewpubs, taproom breweries, and regional craft breweries, while the total brewery count rose to 9,906 from 9,824 in 2022.

global hops extract market dynamics

Market Dynamics

Ensuring Stable Hop Supply Through Advanced Cultivation Practices Drives Hops Extract Market Growth

The global hops extract market is supported by stable hop supply and improvements in cultivation techniques, which ensure consistent quality and availability for brewing and non-brewing applications. Reliable raw material supply is critical for producing CO?-based resins, isomerized acids, light-stable extracts, and essential hop oils, all of which require high-quality hops to maintain consistent bitterness, aroma, and functional properties. This need for reliable and high-quality hop supply has led companies to adopt advanced cultivation technologies to address environmental and production challenges. For instance, in 2025, Kirin Holdings developed technology to improve heat and drought tolerance in hop seedlings, aimed at securing a stable supply of hops for beer production. This innovation addresses environmental challenges in hop cultivation and helps maintain the quality and availability of hops necessary for the global hops extract market.

The Expanding Functional Properties of Hop Extracts Are Driving Their Adoption in Non-Brewing and Wellness Applications

Hop extracts are increasingly used in non-alcoholic and health-related products, driven by their bioactive compounds such as ?-acids and xanthohumol. This growing recognition of their health-promoting properties is broadening the market for hops extracts from purely brewing to wellness and nutraceutical sectors.

For instance, Kirin Holdings and Mitsui Fudosan conducted a study with 100 residents of Kashiwa-no-ha Smart City, Japan, testing non-alcoholic beers containing Kirin’s Matured Hop Extract. The study, published in Nursing and Health Sciences (Nov 5, 2021), confirmed the extract’s effectiveness in improving mental health. Kirin plans to use these findings to enhance mental well-being in Kashiwa-no-ha and across Japan.

Similarly, the repurposing of hop extracts for cosmetics highlights their functional versatility. Kirin Holdings and FANCL have developed Matured Hop Extract (MHE) as a cosmetic raw material that improves skin pore condition. They have jointly applied for patents on the cosmetic raw material and its skin benefits, demonstrating how beer-related ingredients can be innovatively applied to health and skincare products.

Market Segmentation

  • Based on the type, the market is segmented into Organic, and Conventional
  • Based on the extraction method, the market is segmented into CO? extracts, isomerized extracts, light-stable extracts, and hop oil extracts
  • Based on the function, the market is segmented into bittering extract, aroma extract, and dual purpose extract.
  • Based on the application, the market is segmented into alcoholic beverages, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and others.

The Dominance of CO? Hops Extracts Drives Market Growth

The CO? hops extracts segment leads market growth, serving as the backbone of the global hops extract market. These extracts retain ?-acids, ?-acids, and essential oils, allowing brewers to use them as a full or partial replacement for hop pellets. Their concentrated nature and long shelf life enable breweries to reduce raw-material volume, streamline inventory, and maintain process consistency, making them a preferred choice in both traditional and specialty beer production. This growing reliance on CO? extracts has encouraged innovation in high-performance hop products.

For Instance, in July 2024, Yakima Chief Hops (YCH) launched HyperBoost, a new hop product designed to enhance hop aroma and increase beer yield. Developed through YCH’s R&D program, HyperBoost is a dry-hop addition that can be used like traditional pellets, including in cold-side applications. It’s concentrated at 40-70% oil via supercritical CO2 extraction, preserving variety-specific aromas. The product has been trialed by 68 breweries across 21 countries through YCH’s FWD program.

Regional Outlook

The global Hops Extract market is further divided by region, including North America (the US and Canada), Europe (the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Russia, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand, ASEAN Countries, and the Rest of Asia-Pacific), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).

North America Leads the Global Hops Extract Market Growth

North America continues to dominate the global hops extract market, supported by the US strong production capacity, a mature craft beer industry, advanced cultivation practices, and leadership in hop innovation. According to the Hop Growers of America Report, the US accounted for 34.7% of global hop production in 2024. The Pacific Northwest, comprising Washington, Idaho, and Oregon, produces 98% of US hops. Between 2020 and 2023, US hop production peaked at 104–116 million pounds, with harvested acreage ranging from 44,793 to 60,872 acres, underscoring a robust supply base that sustains demand for hops extract. Additionally, US craft beer hops are particularly favored in the Chinese market for their rich varieties, distinct flavors, and competitive prices, reflecting the country’s strong production capacity. Over the past ten years, US hops exports to China have grown steadily, with the US now representing over 80% of China’s craft beer hops imports.

Asia-Pacific: Fastest Growing Region in the Global Hops Extract Market

The Asia-Pacific region is the fastest-growing market for hops extracts, driven by the rapid expansion of both mainstream and craft beer industries. China, in particular, boasts the world’s largest beer brewing industry and leads global domestic beer consumption due to its large population and economic growth. According to the China Alcoholic Drinks Association, China produced 37.9 million kiloliters (KL) of beer in 2023, representing 20% of global beer production. The industry generated $26.6 billion in sales, marking an 8.6% year-on-year increase, with profits reaching $3.7 billion, a 15% growth over 2022.

A key driver for hops extract demand in the region is the growth of the craft beer sector. Between 2021 and 2023, craft beer sales in China rose from $662 million to $971 million, supported by $154 million in investment. The number of brewers nearly doubled during this period, from 1,700 to 3,100, and as of 2024, over 13,000 businesses are linked to the craft beer industry. The rapid expansion of craft brewing, along with increasing consumer preference for premium and innovative beer styles, is driving higher adoption of hops extracts to achieve consistent bitterness, aroma, and quality.
