Beer has enjoyed a long run as the world’s most popular alcoholic beverage. But as reflected in a recent ranking of the top beer-consuming countries worldwide, some nations love the stuff more than others.
Kirin Holdings Company published its 2022 beer consumption report in Dec. 2023, which includes data from 170 major countries and regions. The corporation, which works in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and health industries, has monitored worldwide beer consumption since 1975. It bases the rankings on annual questionnaires sent to several brewers associations worldwide as well as recent beer industry reports.
