Irish alcohol consumption ‘drops by almost a quarter’
Dublin’s pub culture may be world-famous, and a major draw for tourists, but among Irish people alcohol consumption has dropped 23% since 2001.
That’s according to Diageo, who say alcohol-free beer is now the fastest-growing product in the Irish drinks industry
Ireland’s first alcohol-free bar – The Virgin Mary – opened in Dublin in May this year, serving mocktails and non-alcoholic beers, wines and spirits in a setting with all the trappings of a regular pub.
