No one’s ordering draft beer anymore

and it’s largely due to shifting drinking habits. With Gen Z favoring home hangouts, the pandemic accelerating stay-at-home trends, and canned beer growing popular, fewer people are ordering drafts at bars. Now, only 9% of US beer sales come from kegs. Losing draft beer means more than missing a fresh pint—it’s losing the social moments, bartender skill, and communal vibe that only a draft beer experience can offer.
