Alcohol consumption has been declining in many Western countries for decades. But it seems that younger people also don’t go out that often anymore. Many clubs and bars struggle. I think it’s more health awareness and the prices. Why paying 15$ and more for a cocktail and feel shitty the next day?
I like alcohol but it’s definitely a good trend. I think we forget how much people were drinking back in the day. 20+ years ago it was normal to drive home trashed. And a few decades ago it was perfectly normal to put Schnaps in your morning coffee. And for example construction workers were drinking beer at the morning break at 9am (rural Switzerland).
