Arizona alcohol industry score
One composite grade from Arizona's own TTB permit data, benchmarked against every other state and territory PlainAlcohol tracks (not an external industry standard). A state missing an input is graded on the remaining dimensions alone -- the missing weight moves to them rather than deflating the score.
TTB-permitted producers per 100,000 residents
1 minus the Herfindahl index across distillery/winery/importer/wholesaler permit shares -- higher means no single permit type dominates

What is Arizona's per-capita permit rate?
Arizona has 12.8 federal alcohol permits per 100,000 residents (U.S. Census Vintage-2023 population), ranking 43rd by density. Per-capita rates are high in wine- and spirits-producing states with smaller populations.
Which Arizona city has the most permit holders?

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.
