I partially grew up there. Whenever people ask me what is unique about CZ, I always bring up this statistic. Beer drinking is a national sense of pride there.

Italy and France are wine sippers I guess?

im regularly in spain and im unsure they drink this much beer because you drink wine all the time, even on working days at lunch break. The beer is not bad, there are many brands based on german migrant brewers like estrella or moritz

Maybe nitpicking but it seems a bit odd to call this relative to the rest if Europe.
The numbers are absolute.

Do I have this right? A liter is about two pints. So, high consumption is around 160 to 210 pints of beer a year. That’s about 3 or 4 beers a week. That doesn’t sound excessive to me.

We’d also be light yellow if we had to drink french/italian beer ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I worked for a firm with an office in Czechia (Olomouc) and can confirm the level of beer consumption. I received a few brownie points for going toe-to-toe with them on a number of evenings out. I don’t get hangovers, so was bright a chipper the next day. Many of the others weren’t so blessed.

Surprised by the Netherlands being in the „low“ category considering their beer history/quality. I wonder how much of that is a result of marijuana supplanting alcohol as a casual (or not-so-casual) legal(ish) vice for generations.

As a German who lives in Finland, I am absolutely sure that the data for Finland is wrong.
I can confirm Czechia though. Half my overall beer consumption happened over there. And I’ve only been there for a week.

Man, Slovakia did not take the breakup nearly as hard, did they?

~1.5 beers a day for every Czech man woman and child.

Czechs as always having to prove to everyone they are better than the Germans
(Because these are dark times: this is a joke. I love Czechia, Germany and Austria)

Who the hell measures beer by weight? An incredibly simple way to make this more legible, and thus beautiful, would be translate it into pints or bottles.

Spain looks high but we receive 90 millions tourist by year in a 45M country so probably one half of beer drinkers are foreigners.

Liters of beer per week I think would be a good metric here. It’s easier to compare to your own weekends

It would be higher In Ireland, but can’t fucking afford anything but once a week these days.

How is Greece so low. Shouldn’t all the tourists increase their consumption

I’ve never ordered a kilogram of beer…

Makes sense. Best beer in the world is Czech.
In the Czech Republic, beer is cheaper than soda.
Greetings from Czechia 😄
