THIS INDIAN STATE BEATS ITS RECORD IN ALL TIME BEER CONSUMPTION

People in Telangana are reportedly chugging 20 to 21 lakh bottles of beer per day this summer. According to reports, the State consumed around 53 lakh cases of beer in March and 52 lakh cases in April. This is an all-time record in beer consumption in the State. If the heat waves continued in May, then the sales of beer may further increase to 60 lakh cases in a month.

Each case of beer contains 12 bottles of 750 ml quantity. This means 6.36 crore bottles of beer was consumed in March, that translates to 21 lakh bottles per day. More than 50 pc of the Excise department’s revenues come from the sale of beer in summer. However, the sale of hard liquor came down.
