vii. manufacturing industries.
before the introduction of the malt-tax, the number of small-beer breweries
was estimated to be about 400, instead of the more than 900 that they
afterwards proved to be.
The report for the taxation-year 1912/13 shows that lager-beer forms the
greater part of the liquor manufactured in the breweries paying excise, or 40’2«/,
of the whole, while pilsener-beer comes next, with 23’6 %. It is also seen that
porter is manufactured chiefly in Gothenburg; lager-beer mostly in Southern and
Western Sweden; pilsener-beer mostly in Stockholm and Norrland, lager- and
pilsener-small-beer mostly in Stockholm and Gothenburg. Of the largest breweries
subject to the payment of excise, 4 are situated in Stockholm and 2 in
Gothenburg; altogether these used a total of 10 591 820 kg of malt, or 39’3 % of all the
malt used in the country, and paid in excise 2 382 118’60 kronor, or 43’9 % of
the entire excise paid in the country. Of the breweries subject to excise, the
greater number (119) are situated in the towns, while 71 are situated in country
districts. The strength of the wort amounted on an average to the following
figures for:
Porter..................17 5—19 0 % Balling
Lager-beer................110—12’5 > >
Pilsener-beer...............105—11’5 • >
Lager- and pilsener-small-beer....... 80— 9 0 » >
Small-beer................4’0— 5’5 • >
The average price of barley amounted to about 16 kronor, and of hops to
about 350 kronor per 100 kg. With these prices of barley and hops, it is
estimated that the cost of ingredients for:
1 liter lager-beer amounts to.............7’0 ore
1 j pilsener-beer amounts to............6’-l >
1 > lager- and pilsener small beer amounts to . . . . 5’0 >
Of the excise-free breweries, 534 used malt to a weight of not more than
20 000 kg, from which it may be seen that, on the whole, the small-beer
industry is carried on as an inconsiderable handicraft.
The following raw materials have been used at the breweries liable to the
payment of excise.
