Whiskey Wins America's Wallets With 42 States Ranking It Top Tipple
See which liquor won in your state.
— -- One thing’s for sure: America loves its alcohol. But apparently each state loves certain kinds more.
Analyzing information culled from its 700,000 users, drinking social app BARTRENDr compiled data on the most popular beer and liquor brands by state.
Unsurprisingly, Bud Light is the American king of beers, with 33 states naming it its favorite beer. Blue Moon, Corona, Guinness, Heineken and Pabst Blue Ribbon all get honorable mentions. Utah and Nebraska win for most original: Utah most purchases the statemade Polygamy Nitro Porter and Nebraska went with Michigan-based Founders Brewing Curmudgeon Old Ale.
On the liquor side, a whopping 42 states chose a whiskey brand as its top tipple, with made-in-America Jack Daniels and cinnamon-flavored Fireball tying as the number one brands.
Only Maryland and Virginia drink enough vodka for it to be a top choice -- guess those politicians like their slim vodka sodas. The other states are an even mix between tequila and rum.
