For people surprised by the UK, here is the 2018 report: https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789241565639

It says that the recorder alcohol consumption by percentage was 35.7% wine and 35.0% beer, so a close one.

"Pure" ? You mean generally 40 ethanol?

No, the calculation is like 0.5 litre beer with 5 vol.% alcohol contain 25 ml pure (100 %) alcohol and these 25 ml go into the statistics as alcohol from the consumption of beer.
