Vinepair, which put the NIAAA data into a user-friendly infographic, reveals that New Hampshire residents knock back, on average, 2.04 gallons per year. The place and show spots go to Delaware (1.69 gallons) and the District of Columbia (1.68 gallons) respectively, with Nevada coming in at number four (1.46 gallons). North Dakota rounds out the top five, with 1.33 gallons of nothing better to do.
So which states are the least boozy, or perhaps just the ones that prefer beer and wine to the harder stuff? Oddly enough, the state at the very bottom of the list is not Utah. No, it's actually West Virginia, which is also the state that starts drinking the earliest. Early start, early stop? Who knows, but mountain staters only put away 0.47 gallons per person annually — even Utahns can and do top this, consuming, on average, 0.57 gallons. Ohio (0.62), Arkansas (0.64), and Oklahoma (0.65) are also pretty abstemious.
All told, residents of all 50 states (plus DC) guzzle 570 million gallons of hard liquor every year, and this doesn't even count the 914 million gallons of wine and 6 billion (yes, billion with a "b") gallons of beer we're drinking as well. As some great American orator (probably not the real Abraham Lincoln, despite Movie Fanatic's attribution) once said: "Party on, dudes!"
