Time for another nice graph.
I go through phases of playing around turning my numbers into graphs. But eventually I return to huge tables of figures. That's just the way I am.
I occasionally read reports that Mild is undergoing a revival. Sadly, that just isn't borne out by the numbers. Mild's share of beer sales fell every year between 1971 and 2012. Since then it's been stable at a tiny 0.3% share. It doesn't really have much scope for falling further, as that would effectively mean extinction.
Sales of cask beer has been very stable since the turn of the millenium at around 8%. Which is quite good goin as the percentage of beer sold on draught has been declining. Over the same period sales of draught Lager have fallen from 33% of the total to 27.9%. Though that fall has been offet by the increase in off sales, where proportionally more Lager is drunk.
