109 Litres of Beer per year

According to this article the average aussie drinks 109 litres of beer a year. Now this figure is slightly down on last year but it is still an impressive feat. According to my calculations that means that every single person in the country drinks 1 midi (almost 300ml) a day every single day of the year. Of course there is some averaging going on here such that some people drink 10 and others drink none but goddam its still a mighty impressive effort. According to the article thats 1.76 billion litres of beer, oh baby thats a lot of beer.
