As far as I know the most consumed alcohol in Spain is beer.
- isostatic 7y agoI suspect from the copious British immigrants more than the native population
- jxub 7y agoNot really, wine is only dominant now in the Castilla region as internal production quality improved thoughout all of Spain. Wine usually is more drunk with food, not really as a standalone drink in Spain.
- switch007 7y agoGoogle "Foreign population residing in Spain", you might find it enlightening.
- Someone 7y agoFTA: ”The alcohol belts refer to the traditional beverages of countries rather than what is most commonly drunk by the populace today”. Also, the second map, labeled ”Map of Europe with individual countries grouped by preferred type of alcoholic beverage, based on recorded alcohol per capita (age 15+) consumption (in litres of pure alcohol) in 2010” has Spain labeled “beer”.
- harperlee 7y agoIt’s right there in the second map. It is something quite recent; most probably due to the lower price of beer and less variance of quality.
- galangalalgol 7y agoOloroso muy seco para me. Does that count as wine or spirit?
- AdrianB1 7y agoIs it because one can have a cold beer as a hydration and cooling vehicle, while wine cannot fill that role?
- Mediterraneo10 7y agoThere is a tradition in Spain of cooling wine beverages in the warm months of the year: sangria where wine is mixed with fruit juice, and more recently calimocho where it is mixed with Coca-Cola.
- wtdata 7y agoYou drink green (as opposed to mature) white (grape color) wine cold, specially in the summer.
