Roy Morgan Research revealed that 37.6 per cent of Australian adults drank beer in any 4 week period last year and 45.1 per cent drank wine.
Wine dominated over beer last year and this can be attributed to the number of female Australian adults consuming the beverage.
In 2015, 4.6 million Australian women over the age of 18 drank wine of some kind, white, red, sparkling etc in an average 4 weeks. This is in comparison to 3.7 million men.
Research shows that 69.3 per cent of female drinkers consumed white wine over the time period. White wine was the most popular, followe by red wine and sparkling wine and then fortified.
