U.S. Beer Consumption on Decline


Adams Beverage in Norwalk, Conn., said Monday the U.S. beer market contracted 0.3 percent in 2003.

The nation's beer market declined to 2.8 billion 2.25-gallon cases, having increased steadily for the past seven years.

Beer consumption clearly took a hit from the focus on low-carb diets, said Tiziana Mohorovic, spokesperson for Adams Beverage Group.
