Brewers’ Association: the domestic consumption of Hungarian beers increased last year

The domestic sales of the Hungarian beer industry increased by 2 percent last year. The sales of premium beers increased as well, but the expansion of nice-priced beers continued also.

Schillinger Attila, Chairman of the Association of the Hungarian Brewers (MSSz) told MTI that in 2013, largely due to the excise tax increase, the domestic beer sales fell by 4.45 percent. However, about half of the decline was offset by last year's growth. (MTI)
