5 Drunkest States in the US

2. Delaware

Ethanol Consumption per Capita: 4.4 gallons

When you think of states that are famous for their alcohol production, Delaware might not immediately come to mind. However, the Diamond State’s craft wine and beer scene continues to grow. There are four wineries, two meaderies, and more than 20 breweries, some of which also distill spirits, in the state’s 1,948 square miles.

Delaware does not have sales tax on alcohol, which means many of its thirsty neighbors also cross state lines to buy their favorite tipples and save money.
