Manufacture of beer

NACE v2.0 Code: C11.05

About manufacture of beer

NACE code 11.05 covers the manufacture of beer, a widely consumed alcoholic beverage that has been a staple of many cultures for centuries. The beer industry plays a significant role in the global economy, contributing to employment, tax revenue, and the production of a popular consumer product. As a key component of the food and beverage sector, the manufacture of beer is an important industry that serves both domestic and international markets.

Production process

The production of beer involves several key steps. First, the raw materials, including malted barley, hops, yeast, and water, are carefully selected and prepared. The malted barley is then milled and mixed with hot water to extract the sugars, a process known as mashing. The resulting liquid, called wort, is boiled and hops are added for flavor and aroma. Yeast is then introduced to the wort, initiating the fermentation process, where the yeast converts the sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide. Finally, the beer is filtered, carbonated, and packaged for distribution.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the manufacture of beer include malted barley, hops, yeast, and water. Specialized brewing equipment, such as mash tuns, boiling kettles, fermentation tanks, and bottling/canning lines, are also essential for the production process. Additionally, the industry relies on a range of support services, including logistics, packaging, and energy supply.

Production outputs

The primary output of the beer manufacturing industry is, of course, beer. This product is then distributed and sold to a variety of consumers, including 47.25 Retail sale of beverages in specialised stores, 56.30 Beverage serving activities, and 46.34 Wholesale of beverages. The beer industry also generates by-products, such as spent grains, which can be used as animal feed or in other industries.
