Germans drinking less beer by the year
27-Apr-2015
- Germany
The figure translates to 22 million litres of beer drunk per day in a population of 81 million, implying that every German, whether man, woman, child or baby, drinks on average a little over a quarter of a litre a day.
The statistics include beer mixtures, such as beer with lemonade, but not alcohol-free beers.
Bavaria has far and away the most breweries at 616, or more than half the German total. (dpa)
