Two-thirds of all beer produced across the EU in 2018 came from just six Member States, according to Eurostat.

That means that around one in every five beers produced in the EU in 2018 originated in Germany. The United Kingdom had the second-highest output with 4.5 billion litres, followed by Poland with 4 billion litres.
