West Africa

Nigeria is one of the largest markets in the world for Irish stout, and it has been brewed here since 1963, the first Guinness brewery built outside Ireland and Britain. The Nigerian version is stronger than the Dublin one.

Fig. 2. Circle area is beers on record for that town. Labels appear as room allows, so zooming in reveals towns rather than enlarging them. Only towns whose coordinates could be sourced are drawn, so an unmarked town means a missing coordinate rather than a town without beer.

Oldest brewery with a sourced year: Nigerian Breweries, 1946.

These are facts about this record, not about the world. They are counted from the beers on file, and the atlas is only as deep as its sources: 74% of everything it holds is American or Dutch, because that is what the bulk import reached, not because that is where beer is. So the styles most often recorded in Nigeria are not necessarily the ones most often brewed there, and a country with few beers here has a thin record rather than a thin brewing scene.
