top twenty beer comsuming countries

Don't ask how I came upon this information. Just, please, enjoy some of life's simple pleasures. It at least made me chuckle.

The number following the country is the number of liters per year that that country consumes. It doesn't take into consideration population. Correction-does take into consideration population. I'm so silly.

Slightly disappointed at the number one spot. Ireland let me down a little. Wait a tick, I thought that Luxembourg was a city. United States squeaked passed Croatia at #13. God bless America. Nice to see that New Zealand, where my brother currently resides, has found its way to #16. Well done NZ. Never would have guessed that our red neck neighbors to the north would have been so low on the count, aye. Has anyone ever seen Strange Brew?
