Budweiser Parent Continues to Lead Beer Market Sales

Thinkstock

Anheuser-Busch InBev S.A./N.V. (NYSE: BUD), parent of Budweiser, has kept its position as the largest brewer in the United States based on barrels sold. The Miller Coors division of Molson Coors Brewing Co. (NYSE: TAP) holds second place, according to Brewers Association research on the American brewing industry. The difference in size between the two is huge, at least based on global sales.

Molson Coors had revenue of $3.6 billion last year. The total for Anheuser-Busch was $43.6 billion. The gulf is one that the smaller company cannot close.

The Brewers Association listed America’s top nine brewers, with the Craft Brew Association at the bottom, a sign of how small the niche beer market is.
