Beer is the news. Now it may be bad news for bitter drinkers,we are now drinking less and less bitter and we tend to have wine and larger instead. I've pinched this info from a paper yesturday.
The top selling beers are....
1 Stella Artois £591.8 million
2 Carling £318.0 milliom
3 Fosters £256.8 millon
4 Budwweiser £150.9 million
5 Carlsberg £126.3 million
6 Kronenbourg 1664 £122.0 million
7 Grolsh £116.1 million
8 Carlsberg Export £97.2 millon
9 Tennents £65.8 million
10 Guinness £63.9 million
The only bitter to make the top 20 beers sold is John Smiths Extra smooth at number 14 and sold £49.6 millon. So in the future will it be the bitter end?
Any thoughts on this? I have to say I do like larger and drink Becks if I can. |
