I bet the title is false. Most of these probably drink regularly but don’t get properly drunk. You need to go further north for that. Cheers!

Wow! The citizens of these countries must handle their booze well. It’s the Brits and Irish I see staggering in the streets in Spain. 😂

I’m not an expert but average per capita may not paint the full picture.
Would be interesting instead to have stats about the portion of the population that drinks.
I.e., if everybody drinks a little, it’s less problematic than if a third of the population drinks heavily, but the average per capita won’t give you this info.

Croatia is not in top 10?! I am shocked and offended.

17,1L of alcohol. That is about 2-3 standard sized 5% beer cans a day.

How the Fk did Ireland or England and the Scottish not make the list??

maybe it’s due to downing beers. I cant imagine an average person drinking singlemalt or hard liquor abt 15 bottles a year

Why are they using a map from 2022 combined with a list from 2024
„Global and local figures on alcohol consumption The top countries with the highest alcohol consumption, based on WHO data from 2024, look like this:
– Romania: 17.06 liters of pure alcohol/year/person – Georgia: 14.3 liters
– Czech Republic: 13.3 liters
– Latvia: 13.1 liters Uganda: 12.2 liters
– Germany: 12.2 liters
– Austria: 12 liters
– Seychelles: 12 liters
– Bulgaria: 11.9 liters
– Lithuania 11.8 liters“

Someone should find out how much of this is bought by neighbours with higher taxes on alcohol.

Austria Top 10, nice

What is the unit here, 40% alcohol? Pure alcohol? Very hard to get the scale of anything without unit…

So, beer is not an alcoholic drink? Or is this calculated to 100 % alcohol content? [Because Czechia has a consumption of 120+ liters of beer per person per year on average](https://www.ceskenoviny.cz/zpravy/2515400).
Not that I’m proud, but the data seems weird.

Imagine being so drunk on night out in Europe you end up Namibia. 🥴

So let’s check.
17.1 L alc = 342 L 5% beer = 0.9 L 5% beer a day (or 0.36 L 13% wine)
Hm. Somehow expected more there…

Croatia gotta be there somewhere.

Looks like a lot of countries that have to regularly deal with Russia make up the list.
I’m sure that’s coincidence

I don’t know how true it is but I’m sure this does not take into account the sheer volume of homemade alcohol made in every village. Most people in villages make tuica or palica from whatever grows in their garden, either to not let it go to waste or because having 100l of homemade alcohol is cheaper than buying. Some people use it to “buy” work, what I mean is that a lot of drunks will prefer to be payed in 1-2l of this stuff with a hot meal for a days work, repairing a fence, digging a hole, whatever is needed.
Thats why I think the true number is waaay higher but it should apply to all eastern countries as most have the same model of making it at home in the countryside.
