I had no idea it was this much.

The article doesn't say, but I wonder how much we export?

Why would people in other countries buy our beer? It's nothing special and certainly far inferior to beers from Europe, Americas, and Japan. I don't have experience with Chinese beers but I bet they also make better beers than us.

For me Asahi Super Dry rules supreme.

Don't confuse exports with GDP, buying a local beer increases GDP

Also, it's for the whole brewing industry, so that would also include wages and other input costs etc.
