In 2022, flavoured/mixed lager saw the strongest performance of all beer categories, with double-digit total volume growth. While this growth was derived from a relatively low base when compared with more mature beer categories, such as standard lager, flavoured/mixed lager volumes have strongly performed year-on year since their introduction of the leading flavoured/mixed lager, Flying Fish, owned by The South African Breweries Ltd (SAB) - with the exception of the first year of the pandemic.
