Beer sales in Germany to shrink by 6% in 2025

Beer sales in Germany fell at their highest annual pace last year since the data series began in 1993, further extending a long-term downward trend.

Figures from the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) show that breweries and beer warehouses sold around 7.8 billion liters of beer in 2025, 6% less than the previous year.

Destatis highlighted the broadest contraction in beer sales in Germany in the past decade.
Last year, beer sales were 18.9% lower than in 2015, representing a decrease of 1.8 billion liters, the researchers said.

The statistics cover all beer subject to taxation in Germany, including beer from domestic and foreign brewing companies and imports from other EU member states.

However, the dataset excludes non-alcoholic beer, malt beverages and beer imported from outside the EU.

According to Destatis, domestic sales, which accounted for 82.5% of beer sales in 2025, fell by 5.8% year-on-year to 6.4 billion liters.

The remaining 17.5%, or 1.4 billion liters, were sold tax-free as exports and as so-called "company beer." This segment marked a 7% decline compared to the previous year. /CNA
