Why the Free State breweries are unbeaten

German championship titles are very popular with Bayern – especially if no one else is in sight. So in this sense: Congratulations on the 11th national triumph one after the other, the runners-up from North Rhine-Westphalia had no chance, but a difficult disadvantage. Anyone who has already cast a success in Düsseldorf or Cologne knows that the beer glasses there are quite small. In Bavaria, however, where the purity requirement has 509th birthday on Wednesday and offers the reason for these lines, so the measure is at home in Bavaria – and that certainly helped on the way to the title mentioned at the beginning: Bayern are Germany’s beer kings. In no other federal state was brewed as much last year as in the Free State. Sales rose to 23.8 million hectoliters against the national trend, which is 2.38 billion beers. At least. As I said, second place goes to the competition with the little glasses.

Where the most beer is drunk

Bavaria’s breweries also owe the new German championship to the thirst of the German national borders. Beer is a reliable support of the foreign trade, and therefore the Germans have long since started the title of the most drinking nation. Czechs, Poland and Austrians are clearly ahead of beer consumption. But honestly: some championships are also granted to others.
