    THE world drank the equivalent of 6.1 litres of pure alcohol per person in 2005, according to a report from the World Health Organisation published on February 11th. The biggest boozers are mostly found in Europe and in the former Soviet states. Moldovans are the most bibulous, getting through 18.2 litres each, nearly 2 litres more than the Czechs in second place.

    I guess about 40 beers make like 1 liter of pure ethanol. Then if we drink about 300 beers per capita, then it makes 7,5 liters only from beer. Since beer is not considered alcohol ;-), it only makes 8,5 liters per capita, which is not that above average of the world.

    ;-)
