Despite the European football championship, the German breweries sold historically small beer last year. 8.3 billion liters was counted, as the federal statistical office announced on Monday. The export rose by 1.6 percent.
According to tax statistics, sales in the previous year fell by two percent. The non -alcoholic varieties that are not burdened and have had a continuous upward trend for years are not included.
Since 2014, the sale of breweries and beer camps has even fallen by 13.7 percent or 1.3 billion liters. Now the lowest level has been reached since the reunification. The reasons for a healthier lifestyle with less alcohol and the aging of society are the reasons for a healthier lifestyle.
According to the German Brewer Association, the weather has also contributed to the decrease in sale. There were some rainy periods in the spring and summer. “Many visits to Beer Garden literally fell into the water and events around the European football championship were also affected. Law June was the worst beer month in the previous year with minus 13.5 percent nationwide ”.
Beer sales started until May 2024 with an increase of 2.5 percentage points, the minus finally ended in the summer.
