The chapter describes a longer period for total recorded consumption and recorded consumption of different categories and types of alcoholic beverages. The evolutional rather than revolutional nature of alcohol control policy generates special problems for the measurement of alcohol consumption. Alcoholic Beverage Consumption in the U.S.: Patterns and Trends. Alcohol consumption in the United States has declined over time. The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism reports that the per capita consumption of alcohol by Americans age 14 and older has dropped from gallons in to in (the latest date for which statistics are available).
Consumption of alcoholic beverages based on sales figures in Iceland was 2, thousand litres of pure alcohol in compared with 1, thousand litres in and thousand in Measured in pure alcohol per capita 15 years and older the consumption was litres in . Beyond liqueurs and other strong drinks, Finland produces some of the world's greatest beers. Koff and Karhu, both produced by Sinevrychoff, are two of the most popular. There are a number of varieties of Koff, all with different alcoholic contents from Koff I with a % alcohol content to the Koff IVB with a % alcoholic content.

The relationship between changes in alcohol policy measures and alcohol consumption is discussed on the basis of experiences in Finland during the period - “Alcohol is, and has been, an unusually important substance for is not because Finns have always drunk, or drink, an unusual amount –rather the opposite.
The reason for this special relationship of Finns with alcohol is to be found in their permanent framework of living: Finland is a northern, cold and sparsely populated country”. Per capita alcohol consumption in litres of % alcohol in Finland in –, divided into unrecorded and recorded consumption of light and strong alcoholic beverages Recorded alcohol consumption, which accurately measures the volume of alcohol sales in Finland [ 6 ], increased 7% in over the previous year (Table 2).

Supermarkets will be able to sell beer and cider that have up to percent alcohol. The health effects and toxicity of unrecorded alcohol were found to be very similar to commercial alcohol, predominantly caused by ethanol itself (Rehm et al.,Rehm et al., b).The major problem is certainly that unrecorded spirits are often sold at higher alcoholic strength (> 45% vol) but in some cases for half the price of legal beverages, possibly leading to more detrimental.

In the study, changes in alcohol policy during – are surveyed, and their relationship with changes in alcohol policy opinion is examined.
Results. There seem to be a strong positive correlation during the study period between the level of alcohol consumption and the share of those wanting a more restrictive alcohol policy in Finland. Despite recent alcohol policy liberalizations in the Nordic countries, the four Nordic alcohol-monopoly countries have by far still the strictest alcohol policies in Europe.
A common denominator for the top ranking countries is high taxes and restricted physical availability of alcoholic beverages.
Alcohol policy and alcohol consumption. Overall levels of alcohol consumption can undergo rapid changes for reasons including changes in taxation, but the general patterns of drinking habits change more slowly.
In Finnish drinking culture it is rare to combine alcohol with midday or evening meals during the week. Almost daily consumption of alcoholic beverages is still rare in Finland. Alcohol consumption has reduced from its record levels.
