The term Premium Beer (also referred to as "Premium Ale" or "Premium Lager") describes a common term in the alcohol and beer industry to refer to higher quality brands and categories of beer, ale, and/or lager.

There is no universally agreed system or criteria. The term has been used since the early 1940's,[1] and may encompass a combination of characteristics including: flavor, pricing,[2][3] alcohol by volume, or even the sound of the beer's packaging.[citation needed]

Two interpretations of "premium" are most common.[4] In colloquial settings, the definition of "premium" typically revolves around elements symbolic of quality and/or status, such as price,[5][1] flavor, and/or brand value.[6][7] In this definition, even a beverage with low alcohol content may be "premium" if societally viewed as such.[8][9][10]

Within the beer industry, however, another rule of thumb considers alcohol by volume. While the exact numeric thresholds vary between authorities,[11] "premium" beers, lagers and ales are also evaluated based on alcohol by volume content.[12][13]

"Super-Premium" Beer

Within the beer industry, many have gone on to use terms such as "super premium" and other similar neologisms.[14][15]

In the beer and lager industry these classifications are routinely used as marketing efforts,[3][16] with some even incorporating terms like "Premium"[17][18] or "Ultra" into their official names.[4][15][18]
