South Africa has the cheapest beer in the world even though the price of beer was increased by finance minister Tito Mboweni when presenting his 2021 Budget speech.

In South Africa, beer costs about R25 per 330 ml bottle, on average.

Qatar has the most expensive beer in the world. An average price of beer is R168.
