Eurobarometer: Czechs do not consume more alcohol than their EU neighbors

A new survey by the European Commission’s Eurobarometer agency suggests that alcohol consumption in the Czech Republic is below the EU average. Only seven percent of Czechs drink alcoholic beverages on a daily basis, compared to an average of fourteen percent for EU nations overall. Twenty-nine percent of Czechs have wine, beer or spirits about once a week. In Portugal, the EU country with the highest alcohol consumption, fifty percent of the population drink alcohol every day.
