So, from the team at Ye Olde Hodgson’s Rest (your friendly insurance crew with pub-level charm), here’s a round of fresh beer facts to sip on:

Here’s what’s on tap:

🏨 Restaurants, pubs and clubs make up over 50% of the hospitality sector’s total economic contribution.

🍻 The Great British Beer Festival isn’t just about the pints—it’s a big boost to tourism and local business.

🥤 70% of all beer sold is lager, but non-alcoholic brews are gaining serious ground.

📈 Non-alcoholic beer production grew 20% from 2023 to 2024—cheers to that!

🍺 These low or no-alcohol beers now make up over 2% of all UK alcohol market sales.

🏪 Supermarkets are still the top spot for beer buys—though nothing beats a pint at the pub.

🌍 The UK is home to over 1,800 breweries—more than any other country in the world (per capita)!

🧊 Alcohol-free beer is now more popular among 18–24-year-olds than cider.

💷 A typical British pub pumps £100,000+ per year in to the local economy.
