Big beer is still big
I recently found some beer statistics for market share by beer style. The beer styles are a bit odd but they do make one thing clear: despite the real ale revolution and the rise of craft beer lager is still way, way bigger than anything else.
remember lager doesn't just mean macro lager, a lot of countries brew very good lagers and they're lumped in together, though its probably a small proportion.

ReplyDeleteInteresting that stout is almost 1 in 100 pints
Hmmm...not much of a lager fan myself, which is a shame really seeing how dominant it is.
