5 States that Consume the Most Alcohol per Capita

4. Nevada

Ethanol Consumption per Capita: 3.51 gallons

Nevada is one of the U.S. states with the laxest laws related to alcohol, and many alcoholic brands, wholesalers, and suppliers use the Silver State to start and grow their brand presence for this reason. It is also the birthplace of many drinks with alcohol as the primary ingredient.

Situated in the south of Nevada is the city of Las Vegas. As one of the most popular party towns in the country, Sin City certainly contributes heavily to the high alcohol consumption in the state.
