They’ve tallied the drinks by the gallon and the drunkest state in the union is...


Which state would you guess consumes the most alcohol? 

If you would guess Florida, New York, or somewhere in the Deep South – you’d be wrong. The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism has released their annual Surveillance Report, which tallies up alcohol consumption per gallon, per capita – and the winner is the Live Free or Die sate. New Hampshirites consume a dizzying 4.65 gallons per person per year - nearly twice the national average. Close behind in the alcohol state of the union is Washington DC. Here are the states by the gallon:

1. New Hampshire 4.65
2. Dist. of Columbia 3.89
