1. New Hampshire

Ethanol Consumption per Capita: 4.43 gallons

New Hampshire has relatively high alcohol sales per capita due in part to its state-operated liquor stores. Alcohol is a big revenue generator for the state government and the low prices in stores located near the state’s borders draw in customers from across the region. 

The designation as a ‘control state’ enables New Hampshire liquor outlets to offer the widest selection of name-brand wines and spirits at great prices with no taxes. That’s why more than 12 million customers from throughout North America shop for alcohol in the Granite State each year.
