@@ThaOriginalGangsta77 Well then don't put "China" in the title....make it "Why Hong Kong Beer Companies Find It Almost Impossible to Break into China" or something....
If you talk about China's beer market, then also talk about FAKE and POISONOUS Beer as well. Even Fake Wines also run rampage in China that could kill you if you are not careful.
It's very similar here in Germany. But if some outsider comes in with a much cheaper pricepoint at least some people will change brands... So these american companies should try to make a decent product for a low price instead they're throwing millions in marketing at it to make Chinese customers buy their junk beer for a high price point...
Not totally true.I’m from China.As long as the quality of products is good with nice price no matter where it is made from,it could be winner in Chinese consumers market.
The video tells you, foreign beer is desired as it is projected to be of better quality. Americans are no different back in the old days as if it came from Germany, it must be good. We are luck for the rise of microbreweries. In my mind, America now has the best beers in the world
What a silly question. Economics 101 says you charge the price that the market will bear. Case in point, Apple charges ridiculously high prices for inferior phones and gets by with it simply because people are stupid enough to pay the price. It is no big mystery.
I am from Guangdong Province, my favorite beer used to be TsingTao. Now I drink Feldschlösschen mostly, a German brand survived the DDR era and managed to get inside Chinese market. Other times I drink Blue Ribbon.
My two cents; I don't think you can make much headway into the Chinese market with pedestrian beer since big local companies like Tsingtao will always outcompete you in terms of cost and brand familiarity. It doesn't help that most macro-lagers taste far too similar. Instead, why not go the opposite route and generate buzz with a super-premium beer, made with high-quality ingredients and marketed like fine wine? Many mainland consumers enjoy buying foreign alcohol brands for their perceived quality/exoticism and as a status symbol. If you can make a product that taps into those same impulses and compliments Chinese cuisine (e.g. a Sichuan pepper-infused DIPA), you could create a niche in the market populated by new, young enthusiasts looking for an alternative to the usual brandies, whiskies, wines and white-spirits for special occasions.
Gotta know exactly what you're doing in Asia. I know of a smaller german brewery that started slowly selling to Asia. One day they had a problem with the printers that print the best by date on the bottom of the can and some cans had weird overlaying prints. They thought not much of it and send two containers there. Unfortunately that Asian country had very very strict regulations due to a lot of fraud and mislabeling food products going on there. They basically said the brewery just printed a new best by date on some old cans that arrived their first best by date. Something nobody would even think of doing in germany. In the end of the day all two containers needed to be destroyed and they were heavily fined. The entire thing cost around a half million US$...
Something similar happens in Argentina with ice cream. It is a large ice cream market with lots of brands abd competitirs. But international giants have trouble getting in the market.
This story has nothing to do with China. This story has nothing to do with what's happening here. He's only in HK and he's exclusively talking about the HK market.
This is very interesting, because, from my experience, Chinese people see foreign products as superior and high-end even, and are willing to pay a premium for them. It's mentioned in the video at 4:30 and 5:00 but seems to be contrary to what the title is suggesting.
*Beers in Nigeria sell for $0.55 on the average. The most expensive ones like Stout, Heineken, Legend etc sell for $0.83. And there are new ones that came out that sell for $0.41. So you can see, none sells for even a dollar. Try that here and get ready to consume all you brewed yourself.*
How is Bluegirl not mentioned? Young master is not everyone's fav. The variety of flavours are no more than novelity and generally unfocused. Gweilo beer is one of the best available craft beer in hk that is also not mentioned. As per the InBev IPO withdrawal, there were lots of discussions about the lack of sufficient leverage available for the IPO that led to the insufficient interests. Once it is apparent that a quick turnaround profit is quite risky, investors got cold feet. Maybe there's fundamental concerns about the business model but it's certainly not the whole story.
1. Make them good and cheap 2. Play friendly and locally 3. Ask your government and NGO's to stop lame and insidious attacks to the Chinese people. Beers are emotional.
i think the actual reason is: beer is beer, people just need grain tasting bubbly drink with alcohol to go with conversation, why pay 10 times the money for a foreign brand while the local ones do the job?
Great video. Although the middle class is growing, along with its interest in leisure and craft beers, the majority of beer consumption comes from the large percentage of lower income who have grown up with the affordable local produce. It is good to note that craft brands like boxing cat and goose have sprung up with attention in the previous years, but the market segmentation between leisure and mass beers should not be changing a lot. The undisputed giants mainly yanjing, tsingtao, snow and harbin will continue to dominate in coming years.
Most beers in China are pale lagers which aren't my cup of t..beer. Last year in Beijing I was pleasantly surprised many of the local brands also introduced wheat / ale styles although still not as dark as I want them to be but nonetheless a great step towards beer diversity. I think I tried a Yanjing or Harbin Dunkel too, not bad. Beer is and has always been the "people's drink" in China. Unless the western beer brands can compete at the same price range, I don't see they otherwise have much edge in this especially now that local brands are diversifying their styles.
Most of the beer made in China are of low standard, too much CO2 inflated and poor flavor. It's more like drinking water. However, there are some local breweies that provide fresh beer to residents around, but this kind of beer is limited to only them for the sake of being hard to preserve. That is the beer which can be called authentic.
I think the Pineapple Beer you got there is the non-alcohol one, it is just like the ginger beer. There is another alcohol version of the pineapple beer but I seldom see it.
Making better-tasting beer would a good starting point, like American chocolate bars and candies, calling US beers awful-tasting is a generous tribute.
Chinese beers are actually tasty. I live in Denmark and we have here Carlsberg, Tuborg, Royal and Thor, among other local beers. Average price is 60 Cents a can. Most Danes prefer local beers. Carlsberg also brew foreign beers under license but generally, we drink local stuff because it's among the best there is, or so we think. Matter of taste.
I assume that most of Chinese prefer Corona, Heineken, Budweiser and some German beers but still these brands can't take over Tsingtao . And I like Anchor the most.
no wonder why the wusu beer is always more expensive... i thought it was because xinjiang is expensive but no its carlsberg thats right even their "low price" beer is not that cheap
Pineapple-flavoured beer sounds great! My Kirkland Signature tropical-flavoured yogurt is delicious (pineapple and mango), so maybe pineapple is the new thing!
0:53 ... 30 cents a can !! thats way too cheap. Here in India Budwieser Magnum Can costs around 3 USD a can. Even the cheapest beer here costs more than 1 USD.
In mainland China, almost only lager. To most mainland people, lager=beer, do they don’t even know the name “lager” or “IPA” or “weiss beer”. Other types of beer take a very small portion of market, though you can find them in some bars dedicated to craft beers. In most supermarkets in Hong Kong, there are more choices. I think in the future, Chinese people will get to know all types of beer. Think about that huge market. Good for everyone.
Let me get this right, 1. So Chinese are happy drinking local cheap beer. 2. The America's are unhappy, because they don't like that the locals like cheap beer.
This was a nice reminder of the rivers of cheap beer I drank while living in China. I tried the Pineapple Beer in - only because it was literally about 3 cents a can. The Wind Flower Snow Moon was a highlight when I was in Yunnan. But there are also now microbreweries popping up everywhere on the Mainland, not just in Hong Kong.
I would never ever ever let a chinese beer touch my mouth. With an imported beer, from America or Mexico, you know its a sign of quality and safety. Chinese beer is stale dishwater fermented in the beijun sun.
And you quoted Chinese data and put it in hk context. Which is ridiculous. Perhaps it is true that a can of Tsingtao is priced 30 cents in China, but it is $1-2 in hk. Not a very big difference to compare with other brands. You run into a mainland Chinese and you made him a representative of hk, who is up for harbin beer. Why don’t you pick a random Italian in lkf then? He might as well support peroni! almost no hongkonger ever heard of Harbin beer or other Chinese beers, except for Tsingtao beer. However hongkongers are currently boycotting Tsingtao beer. It charges $10 or more to have a pint of beer at hk pubs, almost nobody would drink Chinese beers at pubs and almost no pub offers Chinese beers in hk. Seems that the world knows Hong Kong and China are different markets, except a list of bigot and arrogant us companies which are willing to sell out, e.g. Netflix, Apple, WSJ
Trump just called the massively popular China video app Tictok a US national security, so Beijing should label American beer as Chinese national security. fitting reciprocity.
American cooperation can't even market to their own culture let alone know the complexities of which they were never apart of to begin with. I think this video proves this. Beer market here in Oregon is the same way. Grassroot locals starting small being backed by the community. Ontop of American society getting further from what culture is and more a eutopian vision for the future.

tsingtao is actually pretty nice. They sell them in Wetherspoon's in the UK. I often get alongside other 5% beers.
The Tsingtao that you get in Europe is made by Heineken and has no similarities to the original Chinese one

Tsingtao is my favorite beer. All the way here in California.
