Germany sees record drop in beer sales
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] Germany has set an anti-record for beer sales. This was reported on August 1 by the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis).

For the first time since 1993, beer sales for the first half of the year were below 4 billion liters.

"Beer sales in Germany fell by 6.3% (262 million litres) in the first half of 2025 compared to the same period last year," the publication says.

It is specified that such a sharp decline in sales was previously observed only at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, when the decline affected both the domestic German market and beer exports.

According to experts, the decline in beer sales in Germany is due to demographic changes and the growing popularity of a healthy lifestyle. It is noted that this trend has been going on for three decades.

Earlier, Heinrich Maier, head of the BarthHaas Reporting Project, explained that German beer was losing importance on the world market due to a steady decline in production volumes in Germany. He added that production was decreasing year after year, which was reducing the country's influence in the global beer industry.

Russian companies Baltika and United Breweries entered the top 40 of the international rating of BarthHaas for the first time since the departure of foreign businesses from the Russian Federation. Executive Director of the Association of Beer, Malt and Beverage Producers Vyacheslav Mamontov noted that over the years of sanctions, domestic brewers have managed to adapt to external influences and at the same time increase production.

#1 Muslims now make up about 6.6% of Germany's total population. Beer sales have dropped 6.3%

Could there be a correlation?

On the same side of that coin, if women don't feel safe going out, they don't go out. Lot of guys go out to see and flirt with women, so no women those guys stay home. They all staying home playing video games, they are not drinking, if at all, like they would out playing bar games.

Also, the wider availability of alternative recreational feelz.

Growing popularity of healthy lifestyle? Please.
