For people surprised by the UK, here is the 2018 report: https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789241565639
It says that the recorder alcohol consumption by percentage was 35.7% wine and 35.0% beer, so a close one.

I was a bit surprised by the wine in Sweden. I sometimes feel like an outcast with my wine on AWs and other outings. It seems that most people around me prefer beer. Maybe it's a matter of selection bias since I tend to be around the same group of people.
I would have thought that 10 years ago, but wine has become a lot more popular since then. I know it's partly my age and the age of people I mingle with but I've noticed it for younger people too when I'm out and about, common to see groups of ~20 year olds with those 1l or 3l tetra pak wines during weekends.
