The Czech Republic: Beer production, per capita beer consumption down in 2023
Breweries in the Czech Republic brewed around 20 million hectolitres of beer last year, down 2.7 percent year-on-year, according to data released by the Czech Beer and Malt Association.
Average per capita consumption also fell, reaching an all-time low. Compared to 2022, it fell from 136 to 128 litres per capita a year.
According to the association, prolonged economic uncertainty and higher prices have had a negative impact on beer consumption and the share of sales in pubs and restaurants.
