#7 In EuropeThe beer and malt production landscape in Europe is fuelled by the continent's storied cultural affinity for the brew and the evolving tastes of its consumers. Currently, Europe has the highest average alcohol consumption globally, with eight of the top 10 drinking nations within its borders, including the Czech Republic, Austria and France, according to data from the CIA. However, there is a drop occurring, with the average European now drinking 9.5 litres of pure alcohol annually — a significant fall of 21% since the turn of the millennium, according to the World Health Organisation. This decline echoes a growing societal awareness of the risks of alcohol excess and a discernible trend towards more responsible consumption practices. This is projected to cause a shrinking of industry revenue at a compound annual rate of 3.7% over the five years through 2024, including a 3.3% drop in 2024 alone, reaching €70.4 billion.
