For people surprised by the UK, here is the 2018 report: https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789241565639

It says that the recorder alcohol consumption by percentage was 35.7% wine and 35.0% beer, so a close one.

Does the UK drink wine at the pubs or something? I don't live there, but from all the UK media I consume, beer is almost always the drink.

wine is likely more popular at home, and some people have a weird thing about women drinking beer.
