Alabama has 359 active federal alcohol Basic Permits - 76 wineries, 58 distilleries, 80 importers, and 145 wholesalers. That is the 38th most of any U.S. state or territory.

What is Alabama's per-capita permit rate?

Alabama has 7.0 federal alcohol permits per 100,000 residents (U.S. Census Vintage-2023 population), ranking 51st by density. Per-capita rates are high in wine- and spirits-producing states with smaller populations.

Which Alabama city has the most permit holders?

Birmingham leads Alabama with 50 federal alcohol permit holders, followed by Huntsville, Mobile, Montgomery.

Are breweries included?

No. Breweries do not hold an FAA Basic Permit, they operate under a Brewer's Notice (IRC §6103, protected from disclosure), so they are not in the public TTB List of Permittees this directory is built from.

Where does this data come from?

The TTB FOIA "List of Permittees," published August 2026, public U.S. government data, reformatted without alteration.

Reading Alabama's count-vs-density split

Alabama holds 359 federal alcohol permits (#38 of 52 by count) but ranks #51 at 7.0 per 100,000 residents — count rank and density rank diverge on this state. Federal Basic Permits authorize FAA Act activity, not retail sale, and are not a substitute for the state ABC license.
