Brewing news Lithuania: Beer remains Lithuania’s preferred alcoholic beverage in spite of volume drop

One Lithuanian resident aged 15 and over consumed 11 litres of pure (100 percent) alcohol last year, 0.2 litres less than in 2022, according to data published by the country’s State Data Agency.

Last year, Lithuania’s retail and catering companies sold a total of 3.1 million decaliters of vodka, whisky, brandy and other spirits, 0.8 percent less than in 2022, and 4.2 million decaliters of wine and fermented beverages, 4.2 percent less than a year before.

As in the previous year, beer was the most popular alcoholic beverage, with 20.8 million decaliters sold. This is, however, 6 percent less than in 2022.

The increase of excise duty on alcoholic beverages, introduced at the beginning of 2023, resulted in a 10.6 percent annual increase in prices, according to the State Data Agency.

Meanwhile, the average number of legal cigarettes smoked per person aged 15 and over stood at 1,223, a drop of 2.2 percent from 2022. Tobacco prices also rose by 6.3 percent, driven by higher excise duty.
