COVID-19 has impacted almost every aspect of our lives and economy, and the beer industry is no exception. According to a mid-year survey from the Brewers Association, “it appears that craft volumes declined around 10% in the first half of 2020 versus the same period in 2019.”
On top of that, rumors of a link to the coronavirus coupled with a temporary halt in production in April, led to the former No. 1 spot on this list, Corona, to drop several spots.
To keep you up-to-speed, YouGov has compiled data on the 41 most popular beers among Americans.
See for yourself who is still coming out on top in 2020.
