It has effect! People are buying less American.
According to Systembolaget (the liquor monopoly of Sweden), there has been a drop in sales of American liquor by 17% this year. This is likely caused by boycotts after the tariffs introduced against Europe.
Long term, this may have an effect on which goods they buy in.
yeah i know there are a lot of border shops. how much is it in norway? i think we have a tax of 500sek/l of pure ethanol
It’s a lot more complicated and not based on pure ethanol, but on liters of the product and alcohol percentage, with tax varying from 3,64-23,68 NOK per liter. One basic beer in the shop costs from 40 and up, while it starts at just over 100 in bars.
it’s apparently a lot more complicated here as well, i was just assuming the rate for pure ethanol was universal but it’s not.
