The given line graph illustrates the quantity of beer that pubs and supermarkets purchased over six years, while the bar graph demonstrates how many UK’ pubs were opened over the same period.
As can be seen from both the line and the bar graphs, the amount of beer available in pubs presented a downward trend, while the number of pubs active also decreased throughout the examined period. On the other hand, supermarkets started selling more beer during the late 4-year period.
To begin with, the number of beer available in pubs reported a notable decline, from almost 25000 in 2000 to only a bit above 10000 in 2016, whilst the figure for supermarkets rose steeply, beginning with slightly over 10000 in 2000 to approximately 15000 six years later. In contrast, supermarkets sold less beer between the year 2008 to 2012, and just started growing after this stage, then peaked at almost 15000 in 2016.
Regarding the bar graph, the population of pubs dipped, from slightly degraded from the year 2000 to 2006 to a dramatic fall in the remaining period, and finally reached the bottom at around 50000 in the last surveyed year.
